License FAQs
General license information
1. Is my license valid for local development or internal servers?
Yes, both single and multiple domain licenses are valid for local development. If you would like to use our plugins in your internal servers/environment for testing purposes, please use your internal URL and when you are ready to move to production you can Contact Us and we will generate you a new license for your production URL.
2. Can I still use my product after my license has expired in 1 year?
Yes, you can still use the product, but if you wish to continue to receive free upgrades and support, you will have to renew your license.
3. I do not know the URL for my single domain license, what should I enter for the Domain URL field when I buy the license?
If you do not know the domain of your nopCommerce project it is suggested that you wait until you know the final URL of your domain. With that being said, you can enter a temporary URL and still purchase the product but only use it for local development purposes. Then you can contact us with the final URL and we will generate you a new license.
Multiple domain license
1. What does a multiple domain license mean?
The multiple domain license means that you can use the product on as many websites\domains as you need. The multiple domain license is intended for companies who want to use the product on at least two or more domains.
2. I am using one installation of nopCommerce with multi-store. Do I need a multiple domain license to use one of your plugins?
Yes, the multi-store can be used only with multiple domains or subdomains, which according to our licensing policy requires a multiple domain license.
3. What URL should I use when I buy a multiple domain license?
When you buy a multiple domain license you can enter any URL but we suggest that the URL is linked to you somehow, for example your company URL.
