If you’re tired of paying hefty subscription fees for Adobe Creative Cloud apps but still need reliable alternatives for your image and video work, this Black Friday deal on Serif’s Affinity suite is one you won’t want to miss. Serif is offering its Affinity Photo 2, Designer 2, and Publisher 2 software at an incredible 50% off, making it possible to grab them for as little as $9. Unlike Adobe’s subscription model, Affinity operates on a one-time payment basis, saving you money in the long run.
Here’s a breakdown of the offers:
- Affinity Photo 2 (iPad): $9
- Affinity Photo 2 (Windows, macOS): $35
- Affinity Designer 2 (iPad): $9
- Affinity Designer 2 (Windows, macOS): $35
- Affinity Publisher 2 (iPad): $9
- Affinity Publisher 2 (Windows, macOS): $35
- Affinity V2 Universal License: $83
For users of Affinity V1 apps, an upgrade to the V2 Universal License is available for $63, plus Serif throws in four bonus add-ons. Whether you’re new to Affinity or a returning customer, this deal ensures you’re spending far less than you would for a 12-month Adobe Creative Cloud subscription, even on sale.
Affinity is widely praised for its user-friendly design, making it a smooth transition for those leaving Adobe’s ecosystem. While free tools like Photopea exist, many users find Affinity’s apps offer a more intuitive experience for those seeking a professional workflow.
There’s no confirmed end date for this Black Friday sale, but with Adobe’s sale ending on November 29, it’s likely that Serif is aiming for the same timeline. If you’re unsure, you can always try out the free trial of Affinity’s apps before making a decision. Either way, don’t wait too long to lock in this fantastic deal.
