Convert licence to password in Licence Manager

Step by step guide.

Lifecycle of a GiD Licence

Open

• 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. The actions you can do to any of these licences are the following ones:

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. Note that getting a password was done in the website (in the past), and now it is done directly inside the Licence Manager.
