Here is the service that I want:
*.foobar-key
files.
The library handles opening *.foobar-key
files,
verifying the authenticity of the product key file with the public key,
and storing the product key file locally.jim@jam.com
, signs this with the private key, and emails this to jim@jam.com as the attached file jim@jam.com.foobar-key
.jim@jam.com.foobar-key
file’s signature, saves the file, then informs the FooBar application logic that it should allow paid features.Optionally, there may be logic which ties the product key to the machine, or limits the number of machines using that product key, or verifies that the current user really is jim@jam.com
. These would be designed to prevent the dispersal/reselling of the jim@jam.com.foobar-key
product key.
My problem is that I can only find a single service which does this: FastSpring. Where are the competitors?
I wrote this because I'm making Vidrio. I want something to manage Vidrio licensing/keys. This post is my own, and not associated with my employer.
Jim. Public speaking. Friends. Vidrio.
