> Purchase of a Full TL Elements License
Once you have created a TL Elements user account (for details on this process, take a look at the Create an Account to TL Elements topic), you automatically start your Trial period of 30 days to test the TL Elements Revit add-in. This also allows you to purchase a Full license, which grants full access to all features of the application in monthly cycles. This license is activated by the PayPal Subscription recurring payment system, where you can make automatic monthly payments to automatically renew the cycles of your license. This subscription can be canceled at any time.
In your User Account page (for details on how to get to this page, please, take a look at the Login to your User Account in the Website topic), if you have a Trial or Expired license, you should see two PayPal buttons at the bottom of the page. Both of them will allow you to purchase a Full license of TL Elements by starting a Subscription via PayPal. The first one, on the left, will take you to the PayPal payment system for a payment in REAL - BRL (brazilian currency), the second one, on the right side, will take you to the PayPal payment system for a payment in US DOLLAR - USD. Choose the most appropriate option for the restrictions/region of your PayPal account and perform the payment.
The update of your license from Trial to Full can take seconds to hours. As soon as the PayPal notification system sends us the information of your successful payment, your account is updated. You can perform a logout followed by a login to see the changes in your User Account page. In case of any problem in this process, you can e-mail our support for assistance.
> Purchase of a Business TL Elements License
A Business TL Elements License is the right license for you if you want to acquire/manage multiple user accounts with full licenses for the TL Elements Revit add-in. You can purchase licenses for 2 to 25 users through a monthly renewable Business license subscription. This license is activated by the PayPal Subscription recurring payment system, where you can make automatic monthly payments to automatically renew the cycles of your license. This subscription can be canceled at any time.
To purchase a TL Elements Business License you have to access the TL Elements main page and click the LOGIN/SIGNUP button.
In the following page you can click the SIGNUP button at Manager of Business Account section.
The Business License page will show up and inform you about the license and the requirements to get it. Please, read the instructions carefully.

So, in case you do not have a valid account yet, you can click the button on the left side at the bottom of the page (CREATE TRIAL ACCOUNT) to create one (take a look at the Create an Account to TL Elements topic for assistance). If you already have a valid account, you can click the button on the right side, also at the bottom of the page (SIGN UP TO MANAGER).
Once you are logged with your valid account, the next page (Subscribe to Business License) will inform you about the process to acquire the license, showing the username and the e-mail of the account you are currently using to upgrade to a Business Manager account.
Rolling down the page you will see a slider that sets the number of user licenses you want to purchase for your Business account. You can set 2 to 25 licenses.
At the bottom of the page you should see two PayPal buttons. Both of them will allow you to purchase a Business license of TL Elements by starting a Subscription via PayPal. The first one, on the left, will take you to the PayPal payment system for a payment in REAL - BRL (brazilian currency), the second one, on the right side, will take you to the PayPal payment system for a payment in US DOLLAR - USD. Note that the value receives a discount once the user licenses quantity (set by the slider described above) surpasses 5 or 10 units. Choose the most appropriate option for the restrictions/region of your PayPal account and perform the payment.
The upgrade of your account to Business Manager can take seconds to hours. As soon as the PayPal notification system sends us the information of your successful payment, your account is updated. You can perform a logout, followed by a login to see the changes in your Business Manager Account page (see how to login to this page here).

> Assign Licenses to Users as a Business Manager
Once you performed a login as a Business Manager (for details on this process, take a look at the Login to your Business Manager Account in the Website topic) you will see, at the bottom of the Business Manager Account page, a form that allows you to create a new user in order to assign a license.
Please, read the instructions on the page carefully and, then, provide a username, an e-mail and a password to create a new user account. A verification message will be sent to the provided e-mail. Once the e-mail is verified, the new user account will automatically receive a full user license to the TL Elements application and consume one of your available licenses. The user can, then, access the User Account page and change name and password (for more details, please, take a look at the Login to your User Account in the Website and the Change Your Name and/or Password in the Website topics).
In case you provide your own username or e-mail, your Manager account will be also activated as a user account for the application and will consume one of your available licenses.
