A single-site PluginHive license can only be activated on one website at a time, which includes sub-sites and staging environments.

A single-site license can only be activated on one website at a time, whether it is a live site, sub-site, or staging/development site.

This ensures that both your live and development environments can use the plugin simultaneously without deactivation.
The UPS plugin comes with a single site license, allowing activation on one website at a time. You can activate the license key on your staging or test site during the testing phase. When you’re ready to transfer to your live website, you can deactivate the license in your staging site and activate it in your live site.
The current WooCommerce UPS Shipping plugin subscription cannot be directly carried over to Shopify. However, PluginHive offers the PH MultiCarrier Shipping Label app for Shopify. This app integrates with multiple carriers such as FedEx, UPS, USPS, and DHL, offering features like real-time shipping rates, label generation, bulk label printing, and automated tracking. The Shopify app is available as a monthly subscription and includes a 14-day free trial.
A single site license can only be active on one site at a time—either your live (production) site or your staging site. It is not possible to activate the same license on both sites simultaneously. Additionally, the license must be activated for the plugin to function properly. If you want to use the plugin on both sites at the same time, a separate license is required for each.
No, it’s not possible to extend the license before it expires. License renewal is treated as a new purchase, so you’ll receive a new API key, and the expiry date will be based on the new purchase date.
However, you can reach out to PluginHive support, and they can manually update the license expiry date based on your previous order details.
Yes, the PluginHive single-site license allows activation on only one website at a time. You can activate the license on your staging site for testing, and once you are ready to go live, you can deactivate the license on the staging site and then activate it on your production (live) site. If you wish to use the plugin simultaneously on multiple sites, you would need to purchase additional licenses.
Yes, you can delete the license activation on your testing site. However, once you delete the activation, the plugin will no longer function on that site. Ensure that this is acceptable for your development or staging workflow before proceeding.
Once the plugin license expires, you will no longer have access to the plugin zip file and cannot access any older versions of the plugin. The purchase includes “1 Year of Support & Updates”, and the license must be renewed after one year for continued access to support, updates, and plugin files.
No, it is not possible to transfer, upgrade, or downgrade licenses between the UPS Shipping plugin and the Multi-Carrier Shipping plugin. If you wish to use the Multi-Carrier Shipping plugin, you will need to make a new purchase for that product.

If you need to use the plugin on multiple sites, such as both your live and development sites simultaneously, you will need to purchase separate licenses for each site.
A single PluginHive license can be active on only one site at a time, whether it’s a staging or a live site.

No, each PluginHive UPS plugin license is valid for use on a single site only. Using the license on more than one site violates the license terms and may result in the plugin not working correctly or not displaying shipping rates. Make sure the plugin license is active and used on only one site for proper functioning.
Yes, you can use PluginHive plugins on a staging or development environment. However, a single license can be active on only one site at a time—whether it’s a live site, staging site, or development site. You can deactivate the license on one site and activate it on another as needed. If you require simultaneous use on multiple sites, we recommend purchasing individual licenses for each site.
A single plugin API key can be active on only one site at a time. However, you can use the same key to test on your staging site by deactivating it from the live site first. Once testing is complete, you can deactivate it from staging and re-activate it on your live site again.
However, please note that PluginHive does not recommend deactivating the plugin license on your live site, as it may affect your shipping operations.
A single site license can only be activated on one site at a time. For development and testing, you can activate the plugin license key on your development environment first.

If you experience any issues during this process, contact PluginHive support for assistance.
No, a single-site license from PluginHive can only be activated on one site at a time. If you want to use the plugin on both your main domain and a subdomain simultaneously, you need to purchase and maintain two active plugin licenses—one for each site. If a license expires or is already activated on another domain, it cannot be used concurrently on the subdomain. To manage multiple sites, ensure you have an active license for each.
A single PluginHive UPS plugin license can only be activated on one site at a time, whether live or staging. If you want to use the license for both sites:
1. Deactivate the license on your current site before activating it on the other site.
2. To run the plugin on both live and test sites simultaneously, you must purchase separate licenses for each site.
This ensures compliance with the PluginHive licensing policy.
No, each PluginHive UPS Shipping Label plugin license key can only be used on one site at a time. If you have multiple sites (including staging or development sites), you must purchase and activate a unique license key for each site. Using the same key on more than one site will cause issues with plugin activation and functionality.
PluginHive can assist with activating the license on your preferred site. To reactivate your plugin license on your live site after copying to staging, follow these steps:
1. On your staging site, go to UPS Shipping Settings → UPS Activation page → API Key Deactivation.
2. Enable the “Deactivate API Key” option and save changes.
3. Then, on your live site, go to the UPS Activation page → API Key Activation, configure the license API key and Product-ID, and click on Save Changes.

The PluginHive UPS plugin is designed to work independently and can function alongside other UPS plugins. However, if you’re troubleshooting any issues, you may choose to temporarily deactivate the other plugins for testing purposes.
Please note that deactivating plugins directly on a live site is not recommended—it’s best to test in a staging environment.
No, there is no need to deactivate the old API key before updating. Simply replace the old API key with the new one in the plugin’s settings and click ‘Save Changes’. The new API key will override the old one automatically.
The PluginHive Multi Carrier and UPS plugins do not come with a multisite license. Each plugin now operates on a single site license. You will need to purchase a separate license for each website you wish to use the plugin on; multi-license purchases are no longer available for these products.

You may use either the same email or a different email to create a new PluginHive account and complete the purchase.

Yes, if you purchase a separate license for your subdomain, you will be able to activate and use the PluginHive plugin on the subdomain.

Once you complete the purchase and activate the license on your subdomain, the plugin will work as intended.

Yes, the PluginHive plugin can be purchased under someone else’s name and still be used on your site. However, please note that each plugin license can be activated on only one site at a time.
A single-site license can only be used on one site at a time, which includes subdomains or staging sites. If you activate the license on your development subdomain, the plugin on your live site will be deactivated, as the license cannot be shared across both environments. To use the plugin on both the live and development sites simultaneously, you will need to purchase an additional license for your dev site. This ensures uninterrupted functionality on both environments.
Multi-site licenses are no longer available for PluginHive products. To use the product on multiple sites, you need to purchase individual single-site licenses for each site.
A single site license is valid for activation on only one site. Therefore, if you intend to use the plugin on multiple sites (even within a multisite network), you are required to purchase multiple licenses.
Yes, purchasing a separate license for your live site while your current copy is used on a staging site is ideal. Doing so ensures smooth functionality for both environments, avoids conflicts that could arise from trying to use one license on multiple domains, and keeps your staging and live setups operating independently without issues. Each PluginHive single-site license is valid for a single domain (live or staging), and following this approach aligns with the PluginHive licensing policy.
Yes, switching the license from a staging server to a live site is straightforward. You can activate your single-site license on the test (staging) site for the testing process. Once testing is complete, you can delete the previously activated URL from your pluginhive.com account under the My Accounts > API Keys section and then activate the same license key on the production (live) website. A single-site license can only be activated on one website at a time, including staging sites or sub-sites.
Yes, activating the plugin license is required for both the UPS and FedEx shipping plugins to function properly. Without license activation, the plugins will not retrieve live shipping rates or operate as expected. Always ensure your plugin licenses are correctly activated in the plugin settings.
No, a single-site license for the PluginHive UPS Shipping plugin can only be activated on one site at a time—either the staging site or the live site. It is not possible to use the same license key simultaneously on both websites. If you want to activate the license in both sites simultaneously, you need two licenses.
The PluginHive shipping plugin supports price adjustments at the order level, not per product.
If you need to apply a $10 shipping fee per product, we recommend using our PH Hide WooCommerce Shipping Methods & Rate Adjustment plugin. It allows you to adjust shipping costs based on the product’s shipping class.
Regarding automation, yes, our plugin fully supports this. You can automatically generate shipping labels as soon as the order is received, and tracking details will be sent to the customer once the label is created.
You can find the complete step-by-step instructions here: https://www.pluginhive.com/knowledge-base/setting-woocommerce-ups-shipping-plugin/#download-install-and-activate-the-plugin
Yes, you can create a new PluginHive account and purchase a new license for the plugin if your previous license has expired. There will not be a conflict if you proceed with a new purchase and account. Once done, you can download and install the plugin on your website.
A single-site license can only be activated on one website, even if it is a sub-site or staging site. To activate the license on multiple sites, including a B2B section on a subdomain, you need to purchase multiple licenses. Each license is tied to a specific domain or subdomain, so a separate license is required for the B2B subdomain.
PluginHive does not offer a separate test license option for its plugins. If you need to use the plugin in a test environment, you will need to purchase a license.
However, Pluginhive offers a demo site where you can test the plugin: https://app.instawp.io/launch?d=v2&t=woocommerce-ups-shipping-plugin-with-print-label
Yes, you are allowed to activate your license key on your test (dev) site during the testing phase. Once you finish testing, you can delete the activated URL from the test site and then re-activate the license key on your production (live) site.
The UPS plugin’s single license can only be activated on one website, which includes either the live site or a staging site, but not both simultaneously. If you wish to use the plugin on multiple sites (including a staging site), you need to obtain multiple licenses.
The WooCommerce UPS Shipping Plugin with Print Label single-site license can only be activated on one website at a time, including sub-sites or staging/development sites. If you need to activate the license on multiple sites, such as both a live and a development site simultaneously, you are required to purchase a separate license key for each site.
If your PluginHive subscription is active, it will remain valid for one year from the date of purchase. To check your subscription status, log in to your PluginHive account and navigate to the Subscriptions tab.
If the subscription has expired, go and purchase the plugin from here: https://www.pluginhive.com/product/woocommerce-ups-shipping-plugin-with-print-label/
The license is domain-based. It can only be activated on one website at a time—whether it’s a live, subsite, or staging site—and is not tied to an IP address.
Please make sure the product has both weight and dimensions configured. If they are already set correctly and the rates are still not showing, enable Debug Mode, reproduce the issue, and share the Diagnostic Report with PluginHive support.
There is no option to use the plugin on your site with test or development keys prior to purchase. However, you can explore a fully functional demo of the plugin on the official PluginHive demo website: https://app.instawp.io/launch?d=v2&t=woocommerce-ups-shipping-plugin-with-print-label. This allows you to test the features and see how the plugin works in a live environment before deciding to buy.
Currently, a multi-site license is not available. For multiple sites, you need to purchase individual single-site licenses for each site.
The WooCommerce UPS Shipping plugin is only available as a yearly subscription and does not offer a monthly payment option. However, if you are moving to Shopify, BigCommerce, Magento, or PrestaShop, PluginHive offers a multi-carrier solution that supports monthly subscriptions.
There is no procedure for upgrading or downgrading the plugin license, and currently, PluginHive does not offer a multi-site license. If you need to use the plugin on multiple sites, you are required to purchase separate single-site licenses for each website.
After your PluginHive plugin license is activated, you can follow the detailed setup instructions provided in the PluginHive Knowledge Base. For setting up the WooCommerce UPS Shipping Plugin, refer to this guide:
https://www.pluginhive.com/knowledge-base/setting-woocommerce-ups-shipping-plugin/
This guide includes step-by-step information on configuring the plugin within your WooCommerce store.
To ensure shipping rates are displayed on the cart and checkout pages, please verify that the Real-Time Rates option is enabled in the plugin settings.
The “No shipping method available” message typically appears due to one or more of the following reasons:
1. Missing product weight or dimensions
2. Incomplete UPS account registration
3. Incorrect shipper/origin address
We recommend reviewing these settings and confirming the details.
Note: UPS requires the country, state, city, and postal code fields to be filled in to fetch live shipping rates.
If you continue facing issues, you can enable Debug Mode in the plugin settings, reproduce the issue, and submit a Diagnostic Report via the “Help & Support” page with your ticket reference for further assistance.
It is not possible to trace any purchase details from PluginHive’s end using the email address or domain provided, nor with the shared license code. You will need to provide the email ID used for buying the plugin, the order number, or a screenshot of the plugin installed on your site from the WordPress dashboard for further assistance.
Each plugin license is valid for use on a single site only. If you operate two online shops, you will need to purchase an additional license for the second site. This means you cannot use the same license or API registration across both websites; each must have its own valid license.
As UPS has moved to a subscription-based model, PluginHive has aligned with this change. Your license renewal will now be automated, and there’s no need to manually update the plugin license each year. This ensures uninterrupted service and a smoother user experience going forward.
A “single site” license for the WooCommerce UPS Shipping plugin means that the license can be activated and used on only one website, regardless of how many computers or users access that site. If you have multiple shipping terminals (for example, three different computers or users working from separate locations) but all are operating through a single website, you only need one single-site license. All users can print shipping labels from their respective machines as long as they access the same licensed website. If you wish to use the plugin on multiple distinct websites, additional licenses would be required.
Plugin activation means the UPS plugin is installed and active on your WordPress site. However, this is not the same as activating the Plugin License (API Key). The Plugin License (API Key) activation is necessary to enable the plugin to work, get premium features, receive plugin updates, and customer support. To activate the Plugin License:
1. Go to UPS Shipping in your WordPress admin.
2. Click on License.
3. Proceed to API Key Activation and enter your valid API key.
Once the API key is active, you will be eligible for updates and premium support, regardless of the plugin’s activation status. After activating the key, refresh the Plugins page to access updates.
Each website requires a separate purchase of a single site license for the WooCommerce UPS Shipping plugin, as it is not possible to add multiple licenses to a cart in a single transaction. The cost for each license is $99. You need to complete a separate purchase for each website.
Over the past eight years, PluginHive has maintained consistent prices while delivering high-quality products and services.
In our commitment to excellence, there have been adjustments to the pricing of the UPS Plugin, transitioning to $99. This change reflects the value we uphold in both our product and support services.
Pluginhive discontinued the multi-site license model. You will now need to purchase an individual license for each site separately.
Regarding any available discounts, I recommend reaching out to our team at [email protected].
Once your plugin license has been successfully activated:
1. Check that rate calculations and label generation features are functioning as expected on your portal.
2. Verify all shipping settings, such as service types, shipping origins, and label formats, according to your business requirements.
3. If you notice any issues or unexpected results, contact PluginHive Support.
To activate the plugin license keys on a WordPress multisite, you need to:
1. Perform a network deactivation of the plugin.
2. Then, deactivate and reactivate the plugin on the network.
3. Activate the plugin license individually on each subsite where you want the license to work.
This approach resolves the activation errors you encountered.
If you no longer have access to the email or account originally used to purchase the license, you can create a new account at pluginhive.com.
If you encounter the “Connection failed to the License Key API server” error when attempting to activate your PluginHive plugin, follow these troubleshooting steps:
1. Temporarily disable any security plugins on your website, as they might be blocking outgoing requests required for license activation.
2. If disabling security plugins does not resolve the issue, contact your hosting provider to confirm that there are no server-level security settings or firewall rules blocking outgoing requests from your site.
3. Ensure that your site’s firewall, proxy, Cloudflare, or similar services are not blocking PluginHive’s API connections.
4. If you continue to experience issues after these steps, provide your admin site access along with the Product API Key and Product ID to PluginHive support for further assistance in activating your key.
As a single license can activate it on one site at a time. If you have a single-site license and want to test the PluginHive plugin on a staging site, you can temporarily deactivate the license on your live site and activate it on the staging site for testing purposes.
However, please note that PluginHive does not recommend deactivating the license on your live site, as it may disrupt your shipping setup.

2. Follow the steps shown in the article to input your license key and complete the activation process.

2. Deactivate the WooCommerce UPS Shipping Plugin from your WordPress dashboard.
3. Reactivate the plugin.
4. Activate your plugin license again using the correct API key and Product ID, which you can find under your PluginHive account at pluginhive.com > My Account > API Keys.
The alert in WooCommerce typically appears if your plugin license has expired. PluginHive’s UPS plugin purchase includes “1 Year of Support & Updates.” After one year, the license needs to be renewed for continued support and updates. If you have purchased and updated your API key, ensure that the new license key is properly activated in your WordPress site. Once activated, the alert should disappear. Going forward, PluginHive has moved to a subscription model, so your plugin license will renew automatically each year, and you won’t need to purchase it manually in the future.
Shipping options may not appear if the plugin license is not properly activated on your site.
After a license expiration and repurchase, it is necessary to:
– Ensure the plugin license is activated on your site.
– Deactivate and then re-activate the plugin license (via UPS Shipping → License).
– Make sure that the Origin (ShipFrom) address is configured in the plugin’s General settings.
Following these steps typically resolves shipping rate display issues due to license activation or registration problems.
The PluginHive plugin ZIP file is not available for download within WooCommerce. To download the plugin:
– Visit pluginhive.com and log in to your PluginHive account.
– Go to the My Account > API Downloads section to download the plugin ZIP file.
– You must purchase a separate license for each website, as the same license cannot be used on multiple sites.
To activate the license could you please follow the below steps:
1. Go to the WooCommerce UPS Shipping Activation page –> API Key Deactivation and then enable the “Deactivate API Key” option –> Save Changes
2. Kindly go to your PluginHive.com–> My Account–> API Keys, and delete the previous activation of the license key if any.
3. Now, deactivate and reactivate the WooCommerce UPS Shipping plugin
4. Go to the WooCommerce UPS Shipping Activation page again –> API Key Activation and then configure the license API key and Product-ID –> and click on Save Changes.
Multi-site licenses were discontinued due to increased security and control requirements for carrier (UPS and FedEx) registrations. Now, each account requires a secure integration token that refreshes every 4 hours due to enhanced security and control measures for carrier registrations. This setup necessitates maintaining the registration for each account individually, meaning each site must have an active, unique license key for the plugin to function correctly.
The license expiration notification may appear due to a caching issue. To resolve this:
1. Clear your server and browser cache, then check your dashboard again.
2. If the notification persists, deactivate the plugin and reactivate it.
3. After reactivation, activate the plugin license again using your purchased API key.
These steps should eliminate the renewal reminder and confirm your plugin is activated.
Each account now requires a secure integration token that refreshes every 4 hours due to enhanced security and control measures for carrier registrations. This setup necessitates maintaining the registration for each account individually, meaning each site must have an active, unique license key for the plugin to function correctly.
A single license key can only be used on one site at a time. If you are seeing the license as deactivated on a new site, it is likely because it is still active on another site. You need to deactivate the license from the current site first and then activate it on the new site. If you want to use the plugin on multiple sites simultaneously, you need to purchase additional licenses.
An active license is required for the UPS Shipping plugin to function correctly. Please ensure that you configure the new API key within your site and that your license is activated. This will enable the plugin to work as expected and remove the renew banner.
The PluginHive shipping plugin requires an active license to access shipping rates and function fully. If you wish to operate the plugin simultaneously on both a development (Dev) site and a live site—even if they are part of the same project—you need a separate license for each environment. A single-site license can only be used on one site at a time. To ensure uninterrupted functionality during development and on your live website, it’s necessary to purchase individual licenses for each environment. Alternatively, you can deactivate the license on one environment before activating it on another if using only one site at a time.
To resolve the deactivation issue with the UPS API Key Activation tab, please follow these steps:
