To achieve a standardized, efficient and reasonable solution for the price and quality control of shareware products, well-known shareware authors have teamed up and founded the Standardized Amiga Shareware Group. The SASG is a non-profit organisation which ensures that the author of a shareware product receives 100% of his well-deserved registration fee.

This system guarantees that software programmers do not get exploited and end users can register high-quality applications for only a few dollars (around US$ 20.00). As the price is low more end users are willing to register and support the development of the product which simultaneously improves the already excellent price/performance ratio.

Through the SASG both end users and shareware authors will even get more:

• The end user will benefit from a worldwide infrastructure of registration sites, a comfortable and standardized registration program, an exceptionally fast electronic registration center, email & fax registrations and support for all major credit cards. Last but not least the customer can take advantage of a permanent and reliable support through the Internet Services.

• The programmer on the other hand will be able to offer these above features without being forced to increase the price since without the help of the SASG he would not be able to offer such an established ordering system, infrastructure and support for only US$ 20.00. Furthermore SASG will save him a lot of time and work which he would have been forced to invest into the registration process.

Registering a shareware product has never been easier.

The goal of the SASG is to create a standard which provides the customer with the confidence to invest in an SASG product without any doubts. Therefore it is the greatest effort for the SASG to only credit products with the SASG label if they offer an excellent value for the money, have a good service and a modern style-guide-compliant programming. Due to this quality control SASG equally represents a quality seal for Amiga shareware.
