Included with every license

Every plan includes the same features; only the number of sites changes. Pro installs as a single plugin: the free version is included, no need to install it separately. What’s free and what’s Pro.

What a hacked site costs, compared with prevention

The cost of a hack is not limited to the cleanup bill. You have to find a specialist who is available quickly, repair the damage, win back the trust of Google and of your customers, and sometimes meet legal obligations. Here are the cost items, with public, sourced figures.

ItemRepairing after a hackPreventing with WP Masquerade Pro
Cleanup by a specialistPublic offers that include site cleanup: Sucuri from 229 to 549 USD per year; MalCare Repair 299 USD per year and Fortify 499 USD per year; Wordfence Care 590 USD per year, Wordfence Response 1,250 USD per year (24/7). Automated tools such as Jetpack Scan fix many threats, but Jetpack states that a site infected before it was activated may need additional cleanup.No cleanup: Pro reduces what bots see, locks down logins and alerts you early. €59 per year excl. tax for 1 site, €149 for 10 sites.
Finding an expert in timeAdvertised response times: from 30 hours (Sucuri Basic) to 6 hours (Sucuri Business), presented as estimates; 1 hour for Wordfence Response. Most of the time you have to subscribe in a hurry.Daily checks and email alerts: you are warned before a known vulnerability is exploited, not after.
Time and revenueSales lost or postponed during the disruption, your team’s time spent handling the incident. Calculate it with the formula below.Updates of all your sites tracked in the member area: fewer known vulnerabilities left open.
Search rankings“This site may be hacked” label in Google results, Safe Browsing warnings in browsers. According to Google, reviewing a site infected with malware takes a few days, and a site hacked with spam can take up to several weeks.Login moved, two-factor authentication, limited attempts and bot traps: fewer doors to inject spam.
Personal data (GDPR)Breach posing a risk to people: notification to the supervisory authority (CNIL in France) within 72 hours where feasible; high risk: informing the people concerned; in every case, internal documentation of the incident (GDPR Articles 33 and 34).Administrator activity log (who, what, when, CSV export) to document and understand an incident.
ReputationWarnings seen by your visitors, emails from worried customers, trust to rebuild. Hard to put a figure on, but very real.Signs of intrusion spotted early, before your customers can see them.
Public prices in US dollars from the providers’ official pages; they may change. These offers include other services (firewall, monitoring) and can complement WP Masquerade, which does not clean an infected site.

Run the numbers for your site

Cost of an incident = cleanup + (online revenue per day × days of disruption) + (hours spent by your team × hourly cost) + any compliance costs.

Example calculation, with assumptions to replace with your own. A store making €6,000 of online revenue per month (€200 per day) is offline for 4 days: €800 of sales lost or postponed. Its team spends 10 hours on the incident, at €40 per hour: €400. It subscribes in a hurry to a cleanup offer at 590 USD per year. Example total: about €1,700, not counting search rankings or reputation. A 1-site WP Masquerade Pro license costs €59 per year excl. tax.

WP Masquerade Pro does not guarantee that a site will never be hacked: no tool can. It reduces your exposure and shortens the time between the start of a problem and the moment you see it. Keep off-server backups and test restoring them. Is your site already hacked? Follow our step-by-step cleanup guide, then read how to recover your search rankings and how to get a Safe Browsing warning removed.

How buying works

  1. Click the button for the plan you want: you’ll land on Stripe’s secure checkout page.
  2. Once you’ve paid, your license key appears right away, along with the plugin download link. You also get it by email, and Stripe sends you the invoice.
  3. Install WP Masquerade Pro on its own: if the free version is already installed, keep it or delete it, your settings are kept. In your member area (“Licenses” tab, “Activation codes” block), generate an activation code for the site’s address, then paste that code in WP Masquerade → Pro license (the mask icon in the admin menu) and click “Activate license”.

Install and activate WP Masquerade Pro in 6 steps

1. Buy a plan: Secure payment with Stripe. 2. Download WP Masquerade Pro: A single ZIP file, from your member area. 3. Upload it to WordPress: Plugins > Add New Plugin > Upload Plugin. 4. Activate the plugin: Nothing else to install: Pro includes everything. 5. Generate an activation code: One code per site, for its address. 6. Paste the code: In WP Masquerade > Pro license: the site is activated.

After payment, the Install WP Masquerade tab of your member area takes you through these steps one by one, with your files and your activation code.

Renewal and expiration

The 1-site, 10-site and 100-site licenses are annual subscriptions that renew automatically on their anniversary date. You can cancel anytime from your member area: the license stays active until the end of the paid period.

Your price is guaranteed at renewal. As long as you renew your license without interruption, you keep the price paid at purchase (excluding promo codes, which only apply to the first payment), even if our prices go up. A license renewed more than 14 days after its end date, or a new license, is at the current price. If we ever had to change the price of your license, you would be told by email at least 30 days before the renewal concerned, and could cancel free of charge before that date. Details in the terms of sale.

When a license expires, Pro features stop, but your site doesn’t break. Pro features, updates, the signature feed and support stop; the free features keep working, with nothing to reinstall. Two safeguards: an alias map that’s already been verified stays in place (your file URLs don’t change), and accounts already using two-factor authentication keep it. To get Pro back, just buy a new license: your settings are kept.

The Unlimited sites license is a one-time payment: no subscription, lifetime updates.

License questions

Is Pro worth it for an agency?

The 10-site license works out at less than €15 per site per year excl. tax, the 100-site license at less than €4 per site. For that price, each site alerts you about known vulnerabilities, modified core files or sign-ins from a new device, and the update status of all your sites comes into a single member area, sorted by urgency. The cleanup offers whose public prices we checked cost much more, per site (see the cost comparison).

My site is already hacked: can Pro fix it?

No. WP Masquerade does not clean infected files and is not an antivirus. First clean the site with our step-by-step guide or with a specialist service, change all passwords, then install WP Masquerade to close the doors attackers target and be alerted earlier next time.

What counts as a “site”?

A site is a domain name on which the license is activated (for example example.com). A staging site on a different domain therefore uses a slot: each license offers a single free development slot (local address, staging site or copy of the site), the next ones use a slot. Agencies running many staging sites: the 100-site plan or the unlimited lifetime plan. Reactivating the same site, for example after a reinstall, doesn’t use an extra slot. Each license accepts at most 5 new site activations per 24-hour period, whatever the plan; the member area shows how many are left today.

Can I move a license to another site?

Yes. Click “Deactivate on this site” in the Pro license tab, or “Release” in your member area. The slot is immediately available for another site.

I want to go from 1 site to 10.

To change plans, you buy the higher plan. If you’ve just made a purchase, contact us first and we’ll find a solution that works for you.

What happens if my site can no longer reach the license server?

The license is checked locally, with no requests while pages are being served. Without contact with the server, it stays valid for 10 days; after that, Pro features pause until the next successful check. Your settings are kept.

Can I get a refund?

Refund policy: 14 days after purchase or renewal, no questions asked. See also the terms of sale. If you’re refunded, the license is revoked and Pro features stop at the next check, with the same safeguards as on expiration; your settings are kept.

Will I get an invoice?

Yes. Stripe emails it to you, and you can also find it in your member area under Purchases and invoices. Invoices carry the mention “TVA non applicable, art. 293 B du CGI” (VAT not applicable, Article 293 B of the French General Tax Code): prices are shown excl. tax and no VAT is added, so you pay exactly the price shown.

Is the code open source?

Yes. WP Masquerade and WP Masquerade Pro are distributed under the GPL. What you’re buying is the key that activates Pro features on your sites, plus updates, the signature feed and support.

Prices in euros, excl. tax. VAT not applicable (art. 293 B of the French Tax Code): “TVA non applicable, art. 293 B du CGI”. By purchasing, you accept the terms of sale.
