Tebex Automation, Collaborators,
BBB Usernames & More

We've shipped a significant batch of updates to MC License. Here's everything that changed.

Tebex Marketplace Automation

You can now connect a Tebex webstore to automatically issue license keys when a customer purchases your plugin.

How it works

Link your Tebex store to a plugin on MC License, and whenever someone buys your plugin, a license key is automatically created, sent to their email, and becomes a fully managed license on your dashboard — meaning you can view, edit, or revoke it at any time just like any other license. The email also walks the customer through how to activate their key in the plugin, so you don't need to handle that yourself either.

Keys are issued instantly the moment the purchase completes — no delay for the customer. Email delivery is fully handled by MC License at no extra cost to you.

See the Tebex docs for setup instructions.

Collaborators

You can now invite other MC License users to help manage your plugin's licenses directly from the dashboard. This is useful if you have a team, a support person, or just want someone else to be able to issue or revoke license keys without giving them full account access.

How it works

Navigate to any plugin page and open the Collaborators tab. Enter the email address of the person you want to invite — they'll receive a secure link by email. Once they accept, they appear in your collaborators list and can start managing licenses immediately based on the permissions you've assigned.

Invites expire after 7 days if not accepted. Accepted collaborators stay on your list permanently until you remove them.

Permissions

Each collaborator has individual permission flags that you can enable or disable at any time:

• Create licenses — add new license keys to the plugin
• Edit licenses — update the user, expiry date, and IP limit on a license
• Toggle licenses — enable or disable a license
• Delete licenses — permanently remove a license

Delete is off by default. You can adjust permissions at any time from the Collaborators tab.

Dashboard Stats

The dashboard has a new Include collabs toggle that folds your collaborator plugins into your overall stats — license counts, active servers, and checks. It only appears if you're a collaborator on at least one plugin, and your preference is saved locally so it stays set the way you left it.

Public API

Collaborators can also use their own API key to interact with plugins they've been added to. The same per-permission rules are enforced server-side — a collaborator without deleteLicense permission will get a 403 on DELETE /licenses/:key, for example. License limits are counted against the plugin owner's plan, not the collaborator's.

Notes

• Maximum 5 collaborators per plugin (counting both pending invites and accepted members)
• Limits are still dictated by the host's MC License plan
• Collaborators can leave a plugin themselves at any time from their own Plugins page
• Owners can revoke a collaborator's access at any time

BuiltByBit Username Resolution

License generated from our BuiltByBit automation now show their owner's username in the dashboard instead of a raw profile URL. Previously you'd see something like BBB Profile (which would link to their profile) — it now shows the actual username, e.g. Notch.

Resolving usernames requires access to the BuiltByBit API. If you're on the Ultimate tier on BBB, you'll need to supply your own API token to enable this — follow the instructions at docs.mclicense.org/builtbybit-api-token to get set up.

Once your token is saved, it kicks in immediately for new imports and automatically backfills all your existing BBB licenses in the background.

Upgrade to Lifetime from an Active Subscription

If you're on a monthly or yearly plan and want to switch to the one-time Lifetime plan, you can now do that directly from the billing page.

The Upgrade to Lifetime button sits next to your existing Manage Subscription button. Because Lifetime is a one-time $99 purchase rather than a subscription, you need to cancel your current subscription before checking out — the button walks you through this. If your subscription is already cancelled or in its final period, clicking it takes you straight to checkout.

Dedicated Create & Edit Plugin Pages

Creating and editing a plugin now each have their own dedicated page rather than a modal. The modals were getting too busy as more options were added — marketplace automation fields in particular made them unwieldy. The new pages give everything room to breathe and are easier to work through.
