Purchasing and Activating a License

A Rectangle Pro license is available as a one-time, lifetime purchase. One license can be active on three devices simultaneously, and licenses can be transferred to other devices. Currently, payment processing and license management are handled by Paddle.

A Rectangle Pro license can be purchased within the app, or here on the website home page.

Purchase

Rectangle Pro is a separate app from Rectangle, and is a separate download.

There are three places where the purchase flow can be initiated within the app:

  1. The Purchase… menu item in the Rectangle Pro menu bar menu.
  2. A button in the General tab of the Settings window.
  3. A button in the About window.

In the purchase view, there is an Activate License button for entering a license code if you purchased previously or via the website.

Here are some of the common license activation errors, and solutions:

  • A valid license code is required. Please try again.: Make sure that the license code is entered in the text field below “License Code” in the license activation window, and that it is correct.
  • We were unable to complete the license activation of the requested product.: This typically means that the app is unable to reach Paddle’s servers. If you are on a VPN or behind a firewall, or using software that might block internet requests to Paddle’s servers, you’ll want to try removing any of those and then activating.
