LicenseControl - The Rates
Per-License Fee*
We charge only a small, easy-to-understand, per-license fee as detailed in the table below — no hidden charges and you don't need to talk to a sales rep.
If applicable, contact us to negotiate a volume rate.
The per-license fee covers:
- free tools and the LicenseControl framework/libraries
- free licenses for Vendor's internal and testing use
- administration and Vendor/Developer support
- end-User support for any licensing issues
The license fees are an investment that brings greater overall revenue and reduced support costs. And remember, we handle those support questions — mostly like "My dog ate my license code, what is it?" and "[I don't read manuals or look before I ask, so] how do I move my license?" We're happy to answer these so you can use that time to do more profitable work, like creating more licensed product sales.

Accounting
If you are a Kagi Supplier, your per-license fees are computed and posted to the Kagi Supplier system to appear as a commission on your regular Kagi Supplier statements. Kagi Suppliers are not required to maintain a Credit in their Vendor account.
As a Vendor who is not also a Kagi supplier, you only need to maintain enough credit in your account to cover your per-license fees as they're incurred. A per-license fee is computed each time a customer purchases your product(s) and the License ID is posted to the licensing server and becomes available for use by that customer. As the credit amount in your account gets low, you are alerted so you can replenish your account credit.
To increase your credit, you simply purchase a quantity of our $50 Licensing Services Vendor Credit product in the quantity that you deem appropriate for your rate of sales. The total credit amount is posted to your Vendor account.
Web-based access to your Vendor account allows you to maintain and monitor your account in real time, including the licensing and accounting transactions. You create your own Vendor accounts and assign a level of access to various areas of your Vendor account that's appropriate for your operation.
If you anticipate high-volume sales, contact us to negotiate a pre-priced licensing rate.
