Give your sites in Jetpack Manage extra superpowers by issuing them licenses for our premium features.
Issuing single licenses vs. license bundles
In Jetpack Manage, you can issue a single product license, or a bundle of licenses. This is how they differ:
- Single Licenses: Issuing a single license allows you to add a Jetpack plan to one site. These licenses are billed based on the number of days that it is active in a month.
- License bundles: Issuing a bundle of licenses allows you to add a Jetpack plan to multiple sites. Purchasing a bundle of licenses also allows you to take advantage of our bulk discount pricing. You are billed based on the number of days the license bundle is active in a month, including licenses that are not assigned to a site yet.
Active license statuses
Once a license is issued in Jetpack Manage, it becomes active. Active licenses can have a status of assigned or unassigned:
- Assigned licenses: These are licenses that have been purchased via Jetpack Manage and are assigned to a site. When you are invoiced at the end of the month for your usage, you will be charged for all the days this license was assigned to a site. If you revoke the license before the end of the month, you will be charged for the days before you revoked the license.
- Unassigned licenses: These are licenses that have been purchased via Jetpack Manage but have not been assigned to a site yet. When you are invoiced at the end of the month for your usage, you will be charged for this license, even if it’s never assigned to a site.
