Selling digital products – software, themes, plugins, or extensions – requires more than just a shopping cart. You need a way to generate unique license keys, validate them, limit activations, deliver updates, and communicate with customers. Juggling multiple plugins for licensing, file delivery, and email campaigns is messy, expensive, and hard to maintain.
Metapunk License Manager is the first WordPress plugin that combines license generation, WooCommerce integration, file versioning, email campaigns, and a developer‑friendly API into one seamless package. Whether you’re selling a single plugin or running a SaaS business, it gives you everything you need to manage software licenses professionally.
