You do not need to leave PtView Workstation to pay or activate your license.

  1. Open Settings (Ctrl + P) and select License in the left sidebar (or click the edition badge in the bottom-right status bar).
  2. Click Buy / Upgrade Pro in the Upgrade to PTView Pro banner.
  3. Select your plan (1 Month, 1 Year, or Lifetime).
  4. Fill in your details:
    • License Holder Name: The name shown on your license certificate.
    • Email to Receive License: Used to receive a backup copy of your license key and to restore your license anytime if you reinstall Windows.
    • Bind license to this workstation: Keep checked to lock the license to your current PC, or uncheck if you want to use the license flexibly across multiple computers.
  5. Click Generate VietQR Code.
  6. Open any Vietnamese banking app (Vietcombank, VietinBank, MB, Techcombank, BIDV, TPBank, Momo, etc.) and scan the VietQR code:
    • Click the QR image (or Enlarge QR) to open a full-screen resizable preview for easier phone scanning.
    • Click Save QR PNG if you want to save the QR image and upload it into your banking app from your gallery.
    • If transferring manually, enter the exact Transfer Memo (e.g., PTV8921) and exact Amount shown on screen.
  7. Keep the dialog open — PtView checks your payment automatically every 3 seconds and unlocks PTView Pro immediately once your transfer arrives (typically 3–5 seconds).
Backup License Key

Once activated, copy and save your License Key (PTV1-...) or check your email inbox for a backup copy. You can also restore your Pro license anytime using just your Email or Order Code.

Method 2: Pay via Browser Web Checkout​

If you prefer paying from a browser or purchasing for another computer:

  1. Click Open Web Checkout in the top-right corner of the Upgrade to PTView Pro dialog (or visit the PTView Pro Checkout Page).
  2. When opened from the desktop app, your Name, Email, and Machine ID are pre-filled automatically.
  3. Choose your plan, click Generate VietQR, and scan the QR code to complete payment.
  4. Once payment succeeds on the webpage, return to PtView Desktop and use Restore & Auto-Activate (below).

Method 3: Restore a Paid License or Activate Offline​

Already paid previously, reinstalled Windows, or moved to a new PC?

Option A — 1-Click Online Restore​

  1. Open Settings → License.
  2. Under Restore Paid License, enter the Email you used when purchasing or your Order Code (e.g., PTV8921).
  3. Click Restore & Auto-Activate — PtView retrieves your signed license and activates Pro immediately.
Paid Before Clicking "Restore & Auto-Activate"?

The Restore & Auto-Activate button only looks up completed & paid orders. If you haven't purchased a license yet, click Buy / Upgrade Pro first instead of entering your email in the restore box.

Option B — Offline License Key Activation​

  1. Open Settings → License.
  2. Enter your Licensed To name and paste your PTV1-... License Key (from your confirmation email or checkout screen).
  3. Click Activate Pro Edition. Offline activation works with zero internet connection.

Payment Troubleshooting​

  • I transferred the money, but Pro hasn't unlocked after 1 minute:
    • Click I Have Paid • Check Now in the payment dialog.
    • Verify that your bank transfer included the exact Order Code (PTV...) in the transfer memo and the exact VND amount (underpaid transfers cannot be auto-activated).
  • Didn't receive the confirmation email?
    • Check your Spam / Promotions folder first.
    • Even without the email, your license is safely stored against your purchase Email and Order Code — use Restore Paid License in Settings → License to activate right away.
  • Machine ID mismatch error when restoring on a second PC:
    • If you checked Bind license to this workstation during purchase, that license is locked to the original PC's Machine ID. Uncheck that option during checkout if you plan to switch machines.
