Free is free, forever, on WordPress.org. Pro comes in two flavors — pay yearly for updates, or once for lifetime. Both unlock every Pro module on unlimited sites you own.
All Pro modules, one year of updates & priority support.
One payment. Updates & support for as long as we ship.
14-day money-back guarantee · Unlimited sites · WordPress 6.0+ · PHP 8.0+ · Secure Gumroad checkout
The full picture, laid out. Everything that’s in Free stays in Pro — Pro only adds, never removes. Licensing is identical for Annual and Lifetime.

Your installed Pro modules keep working. You just stop receiving updates and priority support until you renew. Nothing breaks, your site keeps running.
Yes — one payment, unlimited updates and support for as long as Dudaster Studio ships ECS Pro. No recurring charges, ever.
Absolutely. Both Pro licenses cover unlimited sites you build and manage, including client work. You don’t need a separate license per client.
Not strictly. Most ECS Pro modules work with Elementor Free. Theme Builder integration and a few advanced conditions will gracefully enable when Elementor Pro is detected.
14 days, no questions asked. Email us from the account that made the purchase and we’ll refund it through Gumroad.
Yes. Email us and we’ll apply the unused portion of your Annual license toward the Lifetime price.
Gumroad issues VAT-compliant invoices automatically on checkout. You can also request a custom invoice by emailing support with your purchase email.
Yes. ECS Free and ECS Pro share the same plugin core — Pro just unlocks additional modules. All your Free configuration (dark mode colours, container layouts, style templates, etc.) stays intact when you activate a Pro license.
Both unlock every Pro module on unlimited sites you own. Annual ($59/year) renews each year for continued updates and priority support. Lifetime ($159 one-time) gives you forever access — no recurring charges. Choose Lifetime if you plan to use ECS Pro for more than ~3 years.
ECS focuses on design-system features Elementor itself didn’t ship: dark mode, container layout modes, custom layouts, style presets, JSON edit. We don’t reimplement existing widgets like sliders or testimonials. Pricing is also lower than most ECS-class alternatives ($59/year vs $130–$199/year competitors).
No. Disabled modules load zero JavaScript or CSS on the front end. Each module is independent — only the ones you toggle on contribute assets. ECS adds no database queries to public pages.
ECS is built on Elementor’s official hooks and APIs, so it composes cleanly with most third-party add-ons (Crocoblock, Premium Addons, Element Pack, Stax). If you encounter an unexpected conflict, contact support — known incompatibilities are documented per module.
Start Free from WordPress.org. Upgrade through secure Gumroad checkout whenever you need the Pro modules.
