Using Your New Modules

If you paid by credit card, your new module licenses are immediately applied to the Deployment ID(s) you selected. If you used any other payment option besides a credit card, your licenses will be active after we receive and process your payment.

You will not receive a serial number, keycode, or download link. Instead, there are just a few easy steps to begin using your newly licensed software. You'll need to update the license file on your PBX and ensure the module is installed.

 Follow this guide to begin using your new modules:
