Product License Transfer

106 vues Markdown

The License Transfer tab lets clients hand a software license to another client for a fee you set.

Opening the Screen

Open a product for editing from the Products menu, then click the License Transfer tab: {admin}/products/edit?id={id}&configuration=license-transfer.

The tab only appears for products whose type is Software.

What Is on the Screen

The tab heading carries a Premium Feature marker. Clicking it opens the licence panel, which lists what the feature covers, its price and the purchase link. The same panel opens from the chevron on the licence strip below the heading. The strip itself states whether transfer is switched on for this product; the fee and the invoice side are set in the fields under it.

Before You Add the Feature

License Transfer is a premium feature. Until you add it to your license, this tab shows a preview instead of the settings. It covers what the feature does, four feature highlights, a four-step "How It Works" summary, and example earnings.

A View Demo button below it opens a live preview of the settings form. Purchasing happens in the licence panel, so the screen never carries two buy buttons.

The Settings Form

Once the add-on is active, or while previewing it, the tab shows the real form. It has a master switch, a fee type with three choices, and an invoice recipient. Below that sit ownership and transfer limits, blacklist protection, and email notifications.

A collapsible How It Works button in the tab heading holds a six-step detailed explanation; it opens directly beneath the heading, above the licence strip.

Fields

License TransferMaster switch, off by default. Every other field on this tab stays disabled until it is turned on.

Transfer Fee TypeA percentage of the product's current one-time price, a percentage of the amount recorded on the client's service, or a fixed amount.

Fee PercentageThe percentage used for the two percentage-based fee types, shown next to a live calculation from the product's one-time price. Product Price Percentage is taken from the product's current one-time price and converted to the service's currency at today's rate. Paid Amount Percentage uses the amount recorded on the service, which on older services may differ from today's price.

Fee AmountA fixed charge with its own currency, used only when Transfer Fee Type is Fixed Amount.

Invoice RecipientWho receives the transfer fee invoice: the transferee (new owner) or the transferor (current owner). The same choice decides who is shown the Pay Invoice button on the verification result page.

Minimum Ownership PeriodDays the license must be owned before it can be transferred. 0 removes the restriction.

Transfer LimitMaximum number of times a license can change hands. 0 means unlimited.

Blacklist ProtectionStops a blacklisted owner from starting a transfer. The check is on the current owner, not on the person receiving the licence.

Email NotificationsThe transferee's confirmation email is optional and on by default. The transferor's email always sends and cannot be turned off.

Tasks

Trying or purchasing the add-on

On the preview screen, click View Demo to see the settings form without buying.
Click the purchase button instead to open the add-on's page in a new tab.
Return to this tab after purchasing to configure and save the real settings.

Result: you can review the form before paying, and the feature turns on once purchased.

Turning on license transfers

Switch on License Transfer at the top of the form.
Choose a Transfer Fee Type and enter its amount.
Click Save Changes at the bottom of the page.

Result: clients can request a transfer for this product's licenses, and a fee invoice is created automatically.

Setting limits and notifications

Set Invoice Recipient, Minimum Ownership Period, and Transfer Limit as needed.
Turn Blacklist Protection and the transferee's email on or off.
Click Save Changes at the bottom of the page.

Result: future transfer requests follow these limits and send, or skip, the transferee's confirmation email.

Things to Watch

The add-on has to be active for these settings to work

Settings only take effect while the add-on license is active. Without a purchase the switch stays off.

The transferor's notification cannot be turned off

The confirmation email to the current owner is locked on by design. Only the transferee's email is optional.

Zero means no restriction, not a block

Setting Minimum Ownership Period or Transfer Limit to 0 removes the restriction. It does not stop every transfer.
