Licensing and Project Support

Licensing and Project Support

Open-Source License

LoFTP source code is licensed under the MIT License.

Repository license file:

• LICENSE

What The Payment Means

LoFTP works without functional restrictions.

The payment shown in the application is not the purchase of a locked full version. It is a voluntary contribution to continued development and related support or activation services.

Current displayed contribution amount:

• 25 EUR

Branding

The source code license and project branding are handled separately.

Repository branding note:

• TRADEMARKS.md

In practice this means:

• the code is MIT licensed
• the LoFTP name, logo, and branding are not automatically granted for misleading reuse

Why This Matters

This structure keeps the project open source while still allowing:

• voluntary support payments
• long-term maintenance funding
• protection of the official project identity
