Lifecycle of a GiD Licence
Once you purchase your licences in the GiD Shop, you will get the instructions in the sections My Orders and by email
In the GiD Licence Manager you can find the section My purchases, with the list of all the licences purchased with your account
In addition, in the section My licences, you can find a list of the licences assigned to you.
In those lists, you can:
Transfer a licence
Transfer the licence to the final user.
This action generates an optional email to the receiving user.
If the user still doesn’t have a GiD Account, it will be invited to create one and get the licence.
A licence is not transfered until the final user accepts the transfer.
The previous owner can cancel the transfer before the new owner accepts it.
Get a password
In order to use the licence in GiD, you will need to transform it to a Password. The final user needs to fill the form.
