# How much does Groundwire cost?

> Groundwire is a one-time $9.99 purchase on iOS (App Store) and Android (Google Play). There is no subscription or recurring fee from Acrobits. Your VoIP provider's calling rates are separate.

Groundwire costs **$9.99 as a one-time purchase** — there is no subscription, no monthly fee, and no recurring charges from Acrobits. You pay once on the App Store (iOS) or Google Play (Android) and own the app.

## What's included

  - **One-time $9.99** — [covers the app permanently on your platform account](/resources/knowledge-base/how-many-devices-can-i-use-groundwire-on-with-one-purchase/) (Apple ID or Google account).

  - **No Acrobits subscription** — updates are included; Acrobits does not charge you again.

  - **VoIP provider fees are separate** — Groundwire makes calls through your VoIP provider (e.g., VoIP.ms, Twilio). Those providers may charge per-minute rates or monthly plans independently.

## iOS vs Android pricing

iOS and Android are separate storefronts. [If you want Groundwire on both platforms, you purchase once on each](/resources/knowledge-base/can-i-use-groundwire-on-both-iphone-and-android/). The iOS and Android purchases are independent — this is an App Store / Google Play limitation, not an Acrobits policy.
