No Subscription Required

Pay once, read forever.$89 Lifetime, no subscription.

PDFBook offers a $89 Lifetime license for Windows, macOS, and Linux: one payment, no recurring charges, no cancellation fee. The big PDF editors like Adobe Acrobat Pro and Foxit are sold as recurring subscriptions instead. If you mostly read and organize PDFs, a one-time Lifetime license usually works out cheaper than paying for a subscription year after year.

$89 once, forever

PDFBook Lifetime is a single $89 payment. No monthly bills, no annual renewal, no price increases on your license. You own it.

No cancellation traps

Some annual subscription plans charge an early-termination fee if you cancel partway through the year. PDFBook Pro subscriptions cancel cleanly with no fee, and Lifetime has nothing to cancel.

Cheaper than a subscription over time

A subscription keeps charging for as long as you keep it. PDFBook Lifetime is a single $89 payment, so after the first few months it typically costs less than continuing a PDF-editor subscription, and you keep it for good.

Frequently asked questions

What does PDFBook Lifetime include?+
PDFBook Lifetime is a one-time $89 payment that unlocks the full app: unlimited books in your library, both reading modes (flip and vertical scroll), all library features (folders, tags, ratings, notes), and activation on up to 3 devices. All future updates are included.
How does PDFBook compare to Adobe Acrobat on price?+
Adobe Acrobat Pro is sold as a recurring subscription (billed monthly or annually), so the cost keeps adding up for as long as you use it. PDFBook Lifetime is $89 once. If you only need to read and organize PDFs, a one-time purchase usually costs far less over a few years than an ongoing editor subscription, and there is nothing to renew.
Is there a free version of PDFBook?+
Yes. PDFBook's Free tier supports up to 50 books with all features unlocked: both reading modes, library management, folders, tags, ratings, notes, and the image-to-PDF Creator. No credit card, no account, no time limit.
Can I cancel a PDFBook subscription without a fee?+
Yes. PDFBook Pro subscriptions ($6.99/month or $29.99/year) cancel cleanly from a Stripe-hosted portal at any time with no cancellation fee. This is unlike some annual subscription plans, which can charge an early-termination fee if you cancel partway through the term.
What if I buy Lifetime and don't like it?+
PDFBook offers a 14-day, no-questions-asked refund on Lifetime purchases. Email support@pdfbook.app and we process within 5 business days. You get the full amount back.
