Does your current licence have upgrade protection?

A major version upgrade requires changes in your license, for which you usually have to ask, and then “refresh” the license on the licensing page of your gateway. If you have current paid support in place, it will be free.

Probably not a great idea to include the license key on a public forum too!

If you don’t have upgrade protection I would check it hasn’t went into emergency state (7 days)…
