Buy a license
- Open Settings > General.
- Choose Manage License.
- Choose Purchase Pro to open the pricing page.
A Web license works in BucketMate Web. A Universal license works in both the macOS app and BucketMate Web. Each license has a device activation limit, and each browser profile counts as one device.
Activate a license key
- Open Settings > General.
- Choose Manage License.
- Paste your key in Activate License Key.
- Choose Activate.
The License section then shows your plan as Pro, with the license name and expiration date if it has one.
BucketMate Web checks the license again each time the app loads. If the check fails because the key is invalid, BucketMate Web switches back to the trial and shows "Your Pro license is not valid." Choose Review license to open the license settings.
Device limit reached
If activation fails with Device limit reached, remove another device from the license and try again.
- Open the license manager.
- Sign in with the email you used at checkout and enter the 6-digit code.
- Under Devices, choose Remove next to a device you no longer use.
- Activate the key again in BucketMate Web.
Manage billing
- On Pro, choose Manage in Settings > General to open the Polar customer portal.
- On the trial, choose License Portal in Manage License to open the same portal.
- In the license manager, you can also reveal your license key and choose Open billing portal for invoices and receipts.
