Why choose LicenseControl?

As a software developer, you want your software to earn revenue whenever it is used. After all, you deserve to be paid for all of your hard work! However, once a customer buys your product, you also need to leave them in control of legitimate usage — including the ability to move a licensed application from one system to another while remaining compliant with your License Agreement (EULA).

Essentially, you need to provide a pragmatic balance between ease of use, privacy, and usage restrictions imposed by anti-piracy mechanisms. LicenseControl uniquely enables you to strike that balance in a most cost-effective manner.

LicenseControl is not a "one size fits all" solution. The robust, feature-rich service allows you to customize your licensing scheme to suit a wide range of business models — from the home shareware developer, to large corporate applications, and every business in-between.

LicenseControl's Core Features

Immediate, user-friendly activation means your buyer receives their licensing code in Kagi's "Thanks for your purchase" email receipt and activates software with a click of the mouse!

Unique capabilities that respect the end-user's privacy and allow Users to move a licensed product from one system to another — all while maintaining compliance.

Strong support for multiple licensing and business models allows you to offer "try before you buy," free and chargeable upgrades, feature-based licensing, and license add-ons — all suited to both end-user and corporate or managed, multi-license installations.

Protect your software with active and passive anti-piracy strategies that involve encryption, multiple anti-hacking mechanisms, and secure business processes.

Maximize your profits by getting paid for every installation — all with no monthly cost, no minimum sales requirements, a low per-license fee, discounted rates for higher-volume sales, free testing licenses, and free developer tools and support.

Real-time web-based administration provides you with easy licensing setup, management reports, basic sales reporting, and the ability to handle "one-off" licenses.

Free, easy-to-use developer tools and testing capabilities let you easily implement and test your licensed application with zero licensing fees.

Strict privacy policies ensure Users control all licensing communications and none of their personal information is passed in an openly documented transaction process. Read more »
