Zend Guard is a bit pricey - please suggest more affordable alternatives.

Make an API on your server, and sell open dummy clients with personal keys to this API. Iron variant.

It has been discussed many times. Actually, this is called obusification.

Also in search of an answer to this question ... I assume that decoders have either already been created for all modern encoders or decoders will probably be created. Of course, you can try to write your own, but even giants like Bitrix did not go for this. In my opinion, you need to make an obfuscation and then encode it with a thread, and at the same time be aware that if someone really wants it, they will open it anyway.

ionCube - if there is no money to buy the program itself, the site has an online encoder, it's cheap for one file.

IonCube can be encoded online in automatic mode here ( http://sevport.com/encode/ ), and you can also manually encode it if there are not enough settings by contacting support.

Both ioncube and zend are decoded with a probability of 97-98 percent (ordinary Chinese decoders via links from nulled.cc), whoever needs it will recognize the source code. The bottom line is this: the language is not compiled, any add-on must still shove the code into the kernel.
Among the most effective methods are obfuscation, hardcoded checking of hashes and file sizes, multi-nested use of call_user_func, as well as very long files diluted with nested comments and complex structures - various dezenders often stumble on them, at least protect yourself from schoolchildren.
