Create an iLok Account

Flux software is licensed with an iLok. That means you must connect its iLok license to your computer to use it. If you don’t already have an iLok account, you must create one and install the iLok License Manager app. Follow these steps to get started.

1. Visit iLok’s registration page and complete the registration form. Take note of your User ID and password.
2. Open the iLok Account Activation email. Click on the verification link.
3. Download and install the iLok License Manager.
4. Launch the iLok License Manager app. Sign in to your iLok account.
   • (Optional): Connect an iLok. When prompted, click Yes to register it to your account.

Register Code with Plugivery

IMPORTANT: You will only use the Sweetwater redemption code during this step in the activation process. Plugivery will provide a separate, unique serial number AFTER you complete this step.

Once you’ve created an iLok account, the next step is to register your serial number using Plugivery.

1. Sign in to your Plugivery Manager account. If you don’t have an account yet, you can create one here.
2. Go to the Plugivery software redemption page, then copy and paste the redemption code you received from your Sweetwater Sales Engineer.
3. Fill out the necessary information to complete the registration process.
4. You will receive an email from Plugivery that includes the Flux License Key.
   • If you don’t receive an email, go to your Plugivery account home page, then click Licenses. You can then view your Flux License code.
