Hello,

new to Ionic, got lose. i thought there is a Native Solutions version available that is supported by the community, it turns out i need to be an enterprise customer (not a just a cloud subscription).

now i need to build an app that requires an “Ionic Native Key” as per the link below, how can i get that key? any other way than paying as an enterprise customer? what’s the cost of an enterprise plan anyway?

P.S: i placed many requests to receive a key through a contact form with no success.  
Thank you,

If this is literally true, meaning that you absolutely have to use the technology stack described in the link you mention, then I guess you need to get whatever licenses are needed to do so.

That being said, the fundamental principles and protocols that do similar things (like [JWT](https://jwt.io/) and OAuth) are open standards, and don’t require you to buy any license from anybody.
