A license key on every sale

Each sale gets its own key, in the buyer's receipt and library. Your app activates and validates it against public endpoints, with no secret key inside.

// faq

Questions software makers ask.

How does my app check a license key?

Call POST /licenses/activate when the user enters the key and POST /licenses/validate on launch. No API key ships inside your app, and the key of a refunded or disputed order stops validating on its own.

Can I sell license keys on a subscription?

License keys are for one-time products. For a subscription, grant and revoke access from the subscription webhooks, or check the subscriber's status through the API.

Can I charge per seat or by usage?

Yes, on Pro and up. Set seats and meters on a subscription offer, and report each subscriber's usage from your app through the API.

Is there a test mode?

Yes. Live and test keys are separate, so you can run checkouts and webhooks end to end before you go live.

I sell on Lemon Squeezy or Gumroad today. Can I move?

Yes. On Volume, the import connects to Lemon Squeezy or Gumroad and brings your products, customers, purchase history and email list over after you review a dry run. Nothing is written until you confirm.

What does it cost?

No monthly fee to sell. Each sale carries one transaction cost, 4.7% + $0.30 estimated (about $1.66 on a $29 sale), covering the platform, card processing, sales tax and VAT handling and dispute prevention, itemized on every order. In the worked example on this page, you keep $431.70 more a month than on Gumroad and $90.90 more a month than on Lemon Squeezy. Selling $50,000 or more a month? The Volume plans lower the platform fee to 1% or 0.5%.
