With your ShareGate subscription, you can have 1, 5, or 25 machine activations for ShareGate Migrate. To activate ShareGate on a different computer or for another user, you must have an available machine activation in your ShareGate subscription.

If all your activations are used, you can transfer an existing activation or add activations to your subscription.

Note: If your machine is offline or ShareGate Migrate can't contact the license server, see Offline license activations to learn how to transfer an offline license.
