What license do I have?

Whether you have a buy-once license or a lease license, your MatchID Dongle will only be valid for one year. You will have to update your dongle annually with a new license. This protocol is implemented to avoid abuse of lost or stolen dongles.

To check your current license on your dongle (not necessarily your purchased license):

  1. Make sure you have the latest License Manager installed.
  2. Connect the dongle you wish to update.
  3. Start the license manager
  4. A list is shown with your active licenses, together with the expiration date.

The list indicates the features/modules that can be activated in the software, grouped by category. To see your licenses for every module, check the “Show Details” flag.

“Licensed versions” list indicate which versions of the MatchID software you can use.

With a lease license or support contract you always have the latest version of matchID. If you do not have the latest license, please contact support@matchid.eu

Floating License

When using a floating license, please make sure the server PC has all the correct drivers installed. you can download the drivers in the portal.
