The intention is that the CHL will only be purchasable once, and will apply to all platforms. However, there are some considerations here (for example, $5 for desktops is a reasonable amount, but $5 for smartphones might be excessive). No final solution yet.

Current CHL benefits:
- Cross-platorm account saves.
- Special mark in galaxy.
- Account will not ever be deleted due to inactivity.
- Preferential callsign selection (priority over free tier; callsign is “owned” and cannot be taken by another player).
- Removes ads (from all platforms that have them).
- Looking at other added-value benefits (e.g. exclusive missions).
- For the player, it doesn’t really matter where you buy it from. For the developer (me), what @Davoid said.
