Ways to Buy
How can you buy Dino News?
Dino News with source code
Dino News is delivered with the complete source code included in the agreed product scope — frontend, backend, admin dashboard, database schema and any applicable mobile application code. Source-code access, licensing rights and ownership terms are set out in the applicable purchase or licence agreement, so the delivered application can be maintained and extended by your own team.
How source-code delivery worksSelf-hosted Dino News
Dino News runs on hosting you control — your own VPS, cloud account or existing infrastructure — rather than on a vendor platform. Deployment, database setup and migration assistance are included, and there is no mandatory monthly platform fee attached to the software itself. Third-party services such as payment gateways, SMS providers and hosting are billed by those providers directly.
Self-hosted deployment optionsWhite-label Dino News
Dino News can be released entirely under your own brand: your name, logo, colour scheme, domain, email templates and app-store listing where a mobile application is in scope. Nothing in the customer-facing product identifies TechDino. A standard branded deployment goes live within 2 weeks.
What white-label customization coversDino News for agencies and resellers
Agencies, studios and IT partners can take Dino News to their own clients under their own brand. Licensing terms for reselling, the number of deployments permitted and any ongoing support arrangement are defined in the applicable agreement before the engagement starts.
