Understanding Your JupiterX Theme License
We know licensing can be tricky business – there's lots of terminology and fine print to wade through. That's why we've put together this guide, to make sure you have a crystal-clear understanding of what you're getting with your JupiterX theme license. Let's dive in!
Regular License: One Domain, Unlimited Sites
JupiterX theme, like all themes sold on ThemeForest, is subject to the Standard licenses outlined by Envato. The main license you'll be dealing with is the Regular License, which is just perfect for most users.
Here's what you need to know about the Regular License:
- Single Domain Use: You need to purchase this license to use JupiterX only on "one domain".
- Multiple Sites: If you're working with subdomains or site directories on your main domain, you're in luck! You don't need separate licenses for those - they are covered.
- Development Sites: You can also use the same license for your staging or development environment. When you're ready to go live, simply revoke the API Key from the staging site and register a new one for your production website. If your staging site is under the same domain(e.g. staging.domain.com), then you do not need to revoke license

GPL License: Freedom with JupiterX
The JupiterX theme is proudly 100% GPL, which means you get plenty of freedoms, such as the right to use, modify, and redistribute the theme codebase. However, there are important exclusions to note in the GPL coverage:
What is 100% GPL:
- JupiterX theme codebase
What is NOT 100% GPL:

When you purchase JupiterX, you'll receive a purchase key from Envato. This key is your golden ticket to obtain API keys for registering JupiterX and accessing all the Pro features - just remember, it's tied to a single domain.
Jupiter X licenses require activation exclusively on real domain names and cannot be registered using IP addresses. This ensures the security and integrity of the licensing system, preventing misuse or unauthorized distribution.
Register Your Theme on the Artbees Portal
Once you've secured your theme from ThemeForest, you'll receive a purchase key. This key is essential for creating an API key that you'll use to register your theme on the Artbees portal.
Important Notes:
- Your API key is domain-specific, including subdomains and subfolders.
- Yes, you can use the API key locally on your localhost during development.
- You have the flexibility to use the theme in a staging environment. Just remember to revoke and re-register a new API key if you're moving to a new domain.
