This question is often asked in a different way: “Why do I have to pay to use geo information?”
The answer is simple: You only pay for unlimited lookups!
How Does It Work?
Over the years of active development, we’ve faced many challenges and demands to ensure the plugin meets the needs of all users. That requires time, effort, and a dedicated team to provide support and maintain functionality.
Unlike other services, we don’t charge for the number of lookups, nor do you need to purchase large, expensive databases or rely on multiple third-party services. With Geo Controller, you pay for freedom from limitations.
Other providers may offer similar services but often at a high price point due to annual subscription models. While they may sometimes offer more detailed data, our goal is to offer a simple, accurate, and affordable solution for all users.
That’s why we’ve created flexible pricing packages — affordable enough to cost less than a cup of coffee or a meal. We also offer larger plans for business needs.
What Is an Unlimited License?
An Unlimited License gives you:
- Unlimited IP lookups — no daily limits
- Full access to all plugin features
- Priority technical support
- Access to premium integrations and services
The only variation in pricing is based on the number of domains you can connect to our API system.
By purchasing a license, you’re helping keep the service alive and supporting future development.
Are There Any Restrictions?
If you’ve activated an Unlimited License — NO, there are no restrictions.
However, for free users (without a license), we apply a fair usage policy:
- Each domain is limited to 1000 IP lookups per day
- Once you reach the daily limit, the API will temporarily stop returning geo information
- The counter resets the next day, and you get 1000 new lookups
This free plan is perfect for small websites, test environments, or sites in early development. But as your project grows — you’ll want to go unlimited.
