Re: Jira Cloud and blind users

I don't use Jira myself, but my husband tried to obtain a license for Unstoppable. Back then, Unstoppable informed him they couldn't issue individual licenses. Since his company has over 2000 Jira users, it didn't make sense for them to purchase a collective license as he was the only user who needed Unstoppable. He has since managed to use Jira without the pluggin.

Is it now possible to purchase individual licenses for Unstoppable?
