The Infinite Kind Blog

I hope you’re ready for the sixth update to Moneydance 2015! There’s a long list of changes, all of which are listed after the break. As always, we welcome your feedback as we work to make Moneydance the best software for managing your money.

If you’ve purchased Moneydance 2014 or 2015, then this update is completely free. Anyone who purchased an older version of Moneydance gets a stupendous 50% off the regular price when upgrading through the website; just a small thank you for being a loyal customer. As usual, we never force you to upgrade Moneydance: old versions will continue working for just as long as you like. We never “sunset” features or services, so if you purchase Moneydance you won’t end up on a never-ending upgrade treadmill.

We invite you to download Moneydance 2015, or upgrade from a previous install. If you don’t mind a few minor restrictions (such as not having the extension/plugin installer) you can even purchase Moneydance on the Mac App Store once this update has made its way through the review process.

Syrian Refugee Support

15 September 2015

A loose collection of software developers has organised to create DevAssist: Syria Relief in which every participating company will donate 100% of their sales on 16 September (tomorrow!) towards the relief effort. As a result, people get great software and contribute towards refugee relief at the same time!

The Infinite Kind will be taking part in this effort, donating all of our sales on the 16th towards Doctors Without Borders. We encourage anyone considering purchasing Moneydance, SyncSpace, or SketchTo to do so on the 16th in order to make sure the price of your purchase goes towards this worthy cause, helping the millions of people displaced by war.

Please consider re-posting/re-tweeting a link to devassist.org in order to recruit both more software developers and supporters.

If you see the old version of Moneydance on the Mac App Store then please retry after an hour as the change may still be propagating through Apple’s system.

Please note however that the Mac App Store version of Moneydance is limited in some ways including not having the extension/plugin installer and receiving less frequent updates.
