# Managing business licenses

When you buy business licenses(opens new window) , you get access to a license portal where you can assign and revoke licenses from your users. Folge activation and deactivation on their machines happen automatically.

# License Portal Overview

License portal can be found here - https://tower.folge.me/license-manager(opens new window) .

After buying licenses, you must log in with the email and password you received from Folge.

# 1) Assigning license to the user

If a user already has an account registered with Folge, you can use the "Assign seat to an existing user" form to assign them a license. Folge will automatically unlock itself on the user's machine.

# 2) Creating an account

If you want to assign a license to a new user who has never worked with Folge before, you can do it in two ways:

# 1) Create a New User in the License Portal

Use the "Create new user" form to specify the user's Name, Email, and Password ( password can be generated by clicking an icon ). After you click "Create," the user will receive an email with their credentials and instructions on how to download the app. ⚠️ License will be assigned automatically.

# 2) Create a New User in the app

You can also ask your user to create an account. First they need to download Folge(opens new window) , install it and create account using user icon:

Once a user has created an account, you can use the "Assign seat to an existing user" form to assign them a license. Folge will automatically unlock itself.

# 3) Revoking license

Revoking a license happens when you click the "Unassign license" button. After that, Folge on the user's machine will revert to a Free version. If you revoke the license, this won't delete the user's account, and it can be assigned a license again later.
