How to reset an UpdraftPlus licence. When choosing which UpdraftPlus Premium package is right for you, one of the primary decisions when making your choice is the amount of licenses you will require.
We have structured the UpdraftPlus packages to best suit the needs of the various different types of users who require a Premium WordPress backup service. As such, there are 4 different packages you can purchase, depending on how many different sites you would like to install UpdraftPlus Premium onto:
- Personal – 2 sites
- Business – 10 sites
- Agency – 35 sites
- Enterprise – Unlimited
Up until recently, UpdraftPlus licences have been permanently assigned to the site that you activate them on. However we understand that there are many situations in which a licence may have only been used; temporarily on a test site or clone for example. If you purchased the Personal package, it could be possible to use both licences on testing sites for just a few hours and have no licences left when you are ready to install UpdraftPlus Premium on your main site.
We want to ensure that UpdraftPlus customers have the best experience possible when using our product. As such we now allow users to reset their license, so that they can be used on other websites and are not ‘locked’ to the first site it is used on.
How to rest your licence
There are 2 methods you can use if you wish to reset and reuse one of your UpdraftPlus licences.
