For organizations

Deckloud Pro for your whole team, licensed for your Nextcloud server.

One yearly license covers the people who use Deckloud on your Nextcloud server, with one seat for each user. You bind it to the server address, and nothing is installed on the server. Licensed users get Pro on iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac, Windows and Linux, with no extra account or sign-in.

Deckloud is an independent client for Nextcloud Deck. It is not affiliated with Nextcloud GmbH. Your server needs the Nextcloud Deck app.

How it works

  1. 1

    Buy a license

    Choose the number of users below and pay by card on Polar. You get a VAT invoice, and we email the license key to the purchase email address.

  2. 2

    Activate the key

    On the manage page, enter your server address and the key, and select Activate the key for this server. Admins can also activate the key in Deckloud for desktop.

  3. 3

    Users get Pro

    Users sign in to your server in Deckloud as usual. Each app finds the license of your server and turns Pro on. Nothing is installed or configured on the devices.

  4. 4

    Manage it

    Limit the license to one Nextcloud group, turn off usage analytics for all licensed users, and change seats or cancel in the Polar customer portal.

Questions from administrators and buyers

What does Deckloud Pro add?
Pro removes the limits of the free version: unlimited Quick Capture and Share Sheet saves, Smart Capture of up to 20 cards at a time, up to 64 reminders per account, up to 100 repeating cards, the full Team view with the team's weekly report, medium, large and Lock Screen widgets on iPhone and iPad, unlimited Focus sessions, and more than two saved accounts. Boards, cards, comments, attachments, search and offline sync are free for everyone.
Which apps do our users need?
Deckloud for iPhone and iPad from the App Store, Deckloud for Android from Google Play, and Deckloud for desktop on Mac with Apple Silicon, Windows 11 or Linux. Keep the apps up to date: organization licenses need the current version. Your Nextcloud server needs the Nextcloud Deck app.
Do we need to install anything on the Nextcloud server?
No. The license is bound to your server address at api.deckloud.com, and devices need HTTPS access to api.deckloud.com. With the license key, you manage everything on the manage page: servers, group, analytics policy and the Polar customer portal. A verified server administrator can see the license status without the key.
What counts as a user?
Buy one seat for each person who uses Deckloud on the servers of the license. A user with the same Nextcloud user ID on production and staging counts once. Accounts that never use Deckloud need no seat. With the license key, the manage page and the app show how many users the apps reported in the last 30 days. You can limit the license to one Nextcloud group.
Can we change the number of users later?
Yes. Change the seats in the Polar customer portal. An increase is charged prorated right away. A decrease is credited prorated.
What happens if we go over the limit?
Everyone keeps Pro. Deckloud cannot verify the reported users, so the count is information only and never removes Pro. When the apps report more users than the license has seats, the manage page and the app show a notice. The terms oblige you to buy enough seats for the people who use Deckloud, so add seats in the Polar customer portal.
How do we remove someone who leaves?
Remove the user from the licensed group to end Pro at the next license check of their app. If you disable or delete their Nextcloud account, their app cannot check again, but the license it already received can stay valid until it expires, at most 30 days. A user leaves the reported count after 30 days without use.
What if api.deckloud.com or our devices are offline?
Devices keep the license they received for up to 30 days without contact to api.deckloud.com. It ends at the end of the paid period, or up to 7 days later while a renewal payment is late. Deckloud apps keep working with your Nextcloud server during an outage of api.deckloud.com. For networks without internet access, we issue offline licenses through MDM on request.
Do personal Pro purchases stay valid?
Yes. Personal Pro purchases stay valid and unchanged. A user with personal Pro keeps it when the organization license ends.
Does the license cover other accounts on the same device?
No. Organization Pro applies only while the account on your licensed Nextcloud server is the active account in Deckloud. Personal accounts on the same device do not get Pro from the organization.
What data reaches Deckloud?
To find the license, Deckloud apps send the SHA-256 hash of your server address. For a licensed server, they also send the server address, the platform and a seat hash that reports usage. The seat hash is made from the license ID and the Nextcloud user ID, for provider licenses also from the server address. Apps send no names, email addresses, user IDs or group memberships, and board content never passes through Deckloud. When an administrator verifies a server, api.deckloud.com reads that administrator's account once to check the admin group and does not store it. Polar holds the billing contact of the buyer. Details are on the security page.
Our Nextcloud server is only reachable inside our network. Can we use Deckloud?
Yes. Buy the license and activate the key for your server address on the manage page. Activating with the key needs no access from the internet to your server. For a private IP address or a local name such as nextcloud.local, email partners@deckloud.com and we bind it for you. The devices need HTTPS access to api.deckloud.com. For networks without internet access, we issue offline licenses through MDM.
Our iPads come from Apple Business Manager. How do users get Pro?
Deckloud is free in Apps and Books, and your MDM installs it like any other app. Managed devices often cannot buy in apps, so users there cannot buy Pro themselves. An organization license gives Pro to every licensed user of your Nextcloud server without a purchase in the app. The MDM guide has the steps for Apple Business Manager, Intune, Jamf Pro and AppTec360.
Which payment methods can we use?
Card payment only: a card, or Apple Pay, Google Pay, Link, Amazon Pay or Cash App Pay where Polar offers them in your country. Pay-by-invoice and bank transfer are not available. Polar is the merchant of record and does not support them, and its terms do not allow us to issue our own invoices for Polar sales. You still get a VAT invoice from Polar for every payment.
Do we get a VAT invoice?
Yes. Polar is the reseller and merchant of record, so your purchase contract is with Polar, and Polar issues an invoice for every payment. Enter your company name, billing address and VAT ID at checkout. You can download all invoices in the Polar customer portal.
How do we cancel?
Cancel at any time in the Polar customer portal. The license and the licenses on the devices end at the end of the paid year. Nothing is deleted when Pro ends.
Can we buy for more than 1,000 users?
Yes. Email partners@deckloud.com with your number of users, and we send a custom quote.
We are a hosting provider. Which plan fits?
The provider plan is for hosting providers that offer Nextcloud to their own customers. It costs €50 per month plus €8 per bound Nextcloud server and covers any number of servers and users. Organizations licensing their own staff use the Organizations plan.
How does support work?
By email to partners@deckloud.com, in English or German. We answer within 2 business days. There is no SLA and no phone support. The admin guide explains every message in the app and on the manage page and what to do.
