Licensing Models for Digital Products

The model shapes the sale

How you license a digital product, per user, per device, per team, or a one time purchase, shapes how customers buy and what they pay. Choosing a model that fits your product and buyers is a real decision, not a technicality.

Per seat and per device

Licensing per user or per device suits products used by individuals, and it maps naturally to activation limits. It is simple for customers to understand and fair, since they pay for the access they actually use.

Team and organization licenses

For products used by groups, a team or organization license can be cleaner than counting individual seats. It fits how businesses buy and can support higher value sales, at the cost of a bit more structure.

Match it to your product

There is no single right model, only the one that fits your product and how people use it. Choosing deliberately, rather than defaulting, is what makes your licensing feel natural to customers and profitable for you.
