> We are looking to release a third party module and are trying to figure out the licensing system. The main question being how do we ensure a license is not re-used across different gateways? Do we need our own server to verify the license hasn’t been re-used or does the Ignition Licensing system take care of that?

@pturmel is a great welth of knowledge as he has developed several modules.

Looks like you will need to reach out to sales about getting them to manage the licensing.

Cheers,

You apply to IA sales for permission. You will be given an API key with which to interact with IA's activation servers to create license keys for your modules or combinations of modules.

There are rules for included documentation, proper EULA, and external download host site before you will be approved for the showcase. (You **must** host your module downloads on your **own** proper website.)
