I thought I signed up and paid for Pagelayer Pro but some how it sent me here first to sign up for Softaculous, which I thought was part of the process.
Am I in the wrong place to ask about PageLayer and PopularFX?
You can use the Softaculous account for purchasing PageLayer/PopularFX. We have a common Softaculous account which you can use for all product purchases.
Once you have created an account please try to purchase PageLayer pro again and login with the Softaculous account and complete the purchase.
