Licensing

Umbraco Commerce is a commercial product. You can run an Umbraco Commerce unrestricted locally without the need a license. Running Umbraco Commerce on a public domain will display a warning banner in the backoffice and will limit the maximum number of orders (20). To remove these restrictions, you'll need to have a valid license.

How does it work?

Licenses are sold per backoffice domain and will also work on all subdomains. If you have alternative staging/qa environment domains, additional domains can be added to the license on request.
The licenses are not bound to a specific product version. They will work for all versions of the related product.
Let's say that you have a license configured for your domain, mysite.com, and you've requested two development domains, devdomain.com and devdomain2.com.
The license will cover the following domains:
  • localhost
  • *.local
  • *.mysite.com
  • www.mysite.com
  • devdomain.com
  • www.devdomain.com
  • devdomain2.com
  • www.devdomain2.com
You can have only 1 license per Umbraco installation.

What does a license cover?

There are a few differences as to what the licenses cover:
  • A single license covers the installation of Umbraco Commerce in 1 production backoffice domain, as well as in any requested development domains.
  • The production domain includes all subdomains (e.g. *.mysite.com).
  • The development domains work with or without the www subdomain.
  • The license allows for an unlimited number of orders.
  • The license also includes localhost and *.local as a valid domain.
If you have multiple backoffice domains pointing at the same installation, you have the option to purchase and add additional domains to your license.
This is an add-on domain for existing licenses. Refunds will not be given for this product.

Configuring your license

You can purchase a license via the Umbraco Commerce project page. A member of the SUITS team will manage this process. In the process, you will need to provide all domains you wish to have covered by the license such as primary and staging/qa domains. You should then receive a license code to be installed in your solution.

Add additional domains

If you require to add addition domains to the license, please reach out to a member of the SUITS team with your request and they will manage this process.
