Pingzapper pricing

Real cost over 1, 2 and 3 years

What you pay to keep Pingzapper running: the first term, then renewals at the published renewal price. Where no renewal price is published, plans shorter than a year are counted as repeat payments at the current price; longer plans show a dash after their term.
