MMK Renewal Fee

[Oneluckymom]

So I just got notice on MMK Pro to renew for the year and they are charging me 62.95. I thought the renewal was cheaper than that? Anyone know how much it is to renew?

[Cat Herder]

I just renewed for $69.95 for a year, so you got a deal.

[Oneluckymom]

WHAT? 69.95 ??? Thats insane!! I read somewhere that that the renewal fee was like half the cost of the first year so thats what I was expecting.

[Cat Herder]

I was always under the impression it was $69.95 a year.

I always see a space for "Promotional Code" when I renew but have never received one to put in there.... Maybe I am the one missing something :confused:

OK, just went to their site. On the "Pricing" link (in the grey box to the top left of the page) it says in bold type "Minute Menu Kids is $69.95 a year."

I searched everywhere online for a promo code and havent found one either.

Their rate was a lot lower before but they raised it earlier in the year. I'm sure they lost some customers however I am willing to pay the higher rate now that they have raised it. It's just that good .

I just called their contact number and was told that as of 2011, they no longer offer a discounted re-newal rate. As of 2011, you must pay $69.95 (or whatever their normal price is) to use the software each year.

I also inquired about promotional discounts and on-line codes and was told those are ONLY available through your food program sponser as of 2012.

Sponsers will either provide the entire MMK software free of charge for you participate in their program or they will offer a 10% discount. What discount your program sponser gives is entirely up to them.

If you do not have a food prgram sponser you must purchase the software for full price each year

HTH.

Thanks blackcat. That helps A LOThappyface

[Cat Herder]

I do know that the cost saves me about $150 a year in tax prep services, alone. happyface

It really is a one stop shop for all my records and planning. For me it is very much worth it. lovethis

It is definitely worth it though, and 100% tax deductible, don't forget.

I just wanted to add that it works differently from area to area. In my area our food programs use MMK (not MMK Pro) and we have access to it for free. MMK doesn't have all the bells and whistles as MMK Pro such as online payments and such but it does have a lot of benefits.

In other areas the food program only covers a portion of the costs and the provider pays the difference ... I'm not sure if they use MMK or MMK Pro in this case.

So even though I have access to MMK for free through my food program I choose to pay the fee for MMK Pro so that I can use all of the options of the program.

My food program doesn't accept it, so to me it would be a waste of $.
