Give license to another user

[dhomas]

Hello there!

 

I had a question about giving my spare license away. 

 

In a fit of FOMO, I bought an unraid license just before the pricing model change. The license has yet to be used or associated to a USB key.

 

I talk about unraid to all my friends (even though I'm a pretty recent convert myself) and just convinced another friend to take the plunge. I would like to "gift" him the spare license I bought a few days ago so he, like me, can benefit from the unlimited lifetime upgrades.

 

I saw this thread that touches on the topic:

However, this appears to be to transfer a "used" license to someone else. Mine has not been used yet, so I thought my case warranted its own thread. 

 

I can see on the invoice that the license is attributed to my name and email address. Can I send the unactivated license key to my friend for him to use? Or will he need to activate it using my name and email address?

 

Thank you for any advice!

 

Cheers!

I believe that if the license is not yet active it won't be a problem, your friend should be able to activate it using his email address.
