License activation

This article is going to show you step-by-step how to activate and deactivate a software license in MapTiler Desktop FREE and PRO. The process is identical in both versions, so we are going to use the first-named (FREE) for our demonstration. Go to the MapTiler Desktop page, learn more about the pricing and ask for a demo license.

Activating your license in MapTiler Desktop

At first, open the MapTiler Desktop FREE application.

Find the “Account” menu and click “License Key“.

A new window will pop up and you will be asked to enter your license key.

Type in your license key and click the “ACTIVATE” button.

The application will verify your key. If correct, a pop-up window will appear and your application will upgrade to the version corresponding to the license you have purchased.

Congratulations, you have successfully completed the process of license activation.
And remember, you are allowed to use one license key with a single machine at a time. No cheating! :)

If you wish to move the MapTiler Desktop application to that brand new super-duper computer you bought a few days ago, you need to deactivate your license key first. The same applies to situations when you upgrade your current hardware (RAM, Storage, Graphics…). Just click on the “DEACTIVATE“ button and use your license key on another machine.

Thank you for using the MapTiler products.
