A MAXQDA serial number is a unique code that is used to identify your license.
Where do I find my serial number?
You will receive the serial number in your invoice or delivery email sent by our e-sell partner Cleverbridge GmbH. Please look for an e-mail from no-reply@cleverbridge.com
What information contains my license?
The serial number contains information about the MAXQDA version, duration of validity, type of license and type of product.
To activate a serial number, a connection to the Internet must be available so that our license server can check the validity.
