The WebAR SDK allows you to manage your own license and views. This enables you to upgrade your plans as required, without any hassles. You can easily manage your license from the HUB.

The following are the license management privileges you can avail:

Note: You can Manage only a Paid License. A free Trial license expires once 100 views are exhausted.

Manage Views

WebAR SDK paid license allows you to monitor the utilization of views for the AR experiences that are LIVE. You can add more views based on your requirements and switch to a desired plan.

Note: Upon utilizing 80% of your views, you will receive an email notification informing of this. The WebAR SDK license comes with an auto-renewal functionality which will renew your views by default at the previously selected pricing plan to ensure your AR campaign remains live.

You can monitor the number of views utilized as shown in the image below:

In the above example, the number of views utilized is '0' and the total number of views remaining i.e. the quota against the license is '5000'
When your views are about to expire, the auto-renewal functionality will automatically add the same number of views as your previous plan, in this case '5000'. Your card will be charged the same amount as earlier. You will receive an email when your views auto-renew.

Plan Change - Update Views

Note: While updating your views, any unused views will be carried/added into the newly purchased views. You can update your views at any time irrespective of the usage.
