Sell license keys for software

WooCommerce Software Add‑on gives you end‑to‑end licensing inside WooCommerce. Generate keys on purchase, manage activations and upgrades, and keep support simple by managing everything where you already fulfill orders.

Sell licenses and upgrades

Mark any product as software, set licensing rules, and let the add‑on handle the rest. Customers buy like any other product, and when the order is completed they automatically receive their license key, activation email, and activation limits in the order‑complete message.

If you introduce a paid upgrade, define eligible past keys and an upgrade price. During checkout, customers enter their existing license and receive upgrade pricing automatically.

View purchased keys

See exactly which key belongs to which order, including remaining activations, right on the WooCommerce Edit Order screen. Need to resend the license email? Use the built‑in “Send” action without leaving WooCommerce.

Licenses and activations on the orders page

For a global view, go to WooCommerce → License Keys to search, filter, and bulk‑revoke keys when necessary.

Track activations and view reports

Understand usage at a glance. The WooCommerce → Reports → Software dashboard summarizes sales and activation activity so you can spot trends, enforce limits, and plan upgrades.

Integrate with your app via API

Validate licenses from your desktop app, plugin, or SaaS. The API supports generating keys, activating, de‑activating, resetting, and checking validity so you can enforce licensing where it matters: inside your software. See the documentation for endpoints and examples.

Not sure if you need Software Add-on or API Manager for WooCommerce? In most cases, API Manager will be the better fit. If you’re unsure, contact Kestrel support and we’ll help you choose the right extension for your store.

Perguntas frequentes

How do customers get their license key?

Keys are generated automatically when the order is completed and sent in the order‑complete email, along with activation details.

Can I offer paid upgrades for older keys?

Yes. Define eligible previous keys and an upgrade price so existing customers can upgrade at a discount during checkout.

Where do I view and manage keys?

From the WooCommerce order screen (per order) and in a central WooCommerce → License Keys list for global management and bulk actions.

Is there an API for my app to validate licenses?

Yes. Use the API to generate keys, activate, deactivate, and validate from your desktop app, plugin, or SaaS.

Should I use Software Add-on or API Manager for WooCommerce?

If you’re not sure, start with API Manager for WooCommerce. It’s the more flexible option for most stores. If you’re still unsure which one fits your use case, reach out to Kestrel support and we’ll guide you.

    Even though we only used this to manually give licenses (though we did get it to work with check-out), we were pleased with this plugin. We will be migrating over to Subscriptions soon but the Software Add-on was perfect for what we needed - a way to give one-time auto-generated licenses to our users. We really didn't have any trouble with it.

    AVOID THIS ADD-ON! $129.00 billed annually is a rip-off and here is why: no new features are coming for this because the original developer(s) don't seem to be part of Automattic, and, as far as I can tell, there will be no immediate fixing of a HUGE security issue. I suppose you could argue that the cost covers support for your purchase, but most of the support haven't been able to answer questions about the add-on! This is also the most expensive license key option out there for WooCommerce and yet, it doesn't do its job: protect your software. With the current implementation, the API's 'Activation Reset' has no secret code to be passed from the software (which, if implemented, could be hi...
