Build a license check in a plugin

[micartey]

Hello guys,

I want to post a premium plugin so that I can earn some money.
I am well aware that I need to upgrade my plan to do this, but before I do that, I want to understand how I can check if someone paid for the plugin or not.
After some research, I found this API-Endpoint, but I am wondering if I need the private token of the user to validate the user.

Above all, I would be happy about examples or code snippets that are unfortunately missing in the documentation

Maybe a premade system could suit your needs?

Some of these solutions should be able to be implemented into your code.

But all these "solutions" include a discord solution or me doing something manually.

How can I incorporate them with this website?
Who would by a plugin and can't use it?

You could just automatically authenticate users with the premium placeholders and your licensing system. Probably better than a website/Discord to manually do it.

What exactly do you mean?
How does that prevent someone from sharing my plugin?
