How to get your license for OCCT Personal
Added 2022-01-25 22:07:23 +0000 UTCUpdate : Patreon can take some time to validate everything and send me the green light. Please wait some time, usually below 30 minutes it seems, if the download button for the license doesn't appear right away !
Thanks for supporting me in developing OCCT !
Here are the simple steps for downloading your license :
1- Go to https://www.ocbase.com/download
2 - Login with your Patreon account by using the account menu
3 - Download OCCT Personal and your license
Patreon can take some time to validate everything and send me the green light. Please wait some time, usually below 30 minutes it seems, if the download button for the license doesn't appear right away !
4 - Copy both files in the same folder
That's it ! Always keep OCCT and the license file in the same folder, and you're good to go.
OCCT will automatically try to renew your license if it's close to expiry. As long as you are subbed and have online access, OCCT will update it automatically !
You can also manually update the license file by downloading it again on https://www.ocbase.com/download .

Buy it from patreon but still no licence . I'm not able to activate my license because oAUTH login through patreon seems to be broken

2025-07-03 19:34:08 +0000 UTCLicense received almost immediately after paying. No problems.

2025-04-22 17:50:15 +0000 UTCI'm not able to activate my license because oAUTH login through patreon seems to be broken. it redirects to a broken URL https://https//www.patreon.com/api/oauth2/authorize EDIT: Just realized that the license file was emailed to me and I don't actually need to log in. We're all good here!

2025-04-03 19:48:38 +0000 UTCYour license was sent a few minutes ago. Patreon may take a few minutes to validate your payment and check everything.

2024-04-17 11:28:49 +0000 UTCThanks for this cool app. I hope to get a Platinum certificate for all of my systems.

2024-04-03 07:38:43 +0000 UTCOf course!
Adrien Mercier
2023-09-12 19:19:01 +0000 UTCDoes it work if your patreon account is your Gmail account?
Devin Gripenwaldt
2023-09-10 00:21:52 +0000 UTCFraud prevention is the reason it takes time to process the transaction. I agree entirely with OCBASE's opinion - it's more important to offer offline licenses than it is to try and validate them at runtime.

2023-07-07 04:32:38 +0000 UTCHey, download seems to be giving a Too Many Redirects error currently, don't know if thats something up with the server :)

2023-05-10 17:49:03 +0000 UTCOCCT has to run in air gapped environments (fail safe mode etc) - i don't see myself imposing being online to everyone to save for a 20 min wait. Charging directly users means issuing them invoices and doing VAT myself. My accountant was going crazy with that many invoices (i was doing it before). And yes, Patreon checks the payments and gives the green light - i am waiting for that green light to happen before sending the license. Going faster is a matter between Patreon and their payment providers. Patreon notified me your payment was accepted, and it took my backend a whooping 0.827s before sending the email and doing all necessary stuff. Frankly, I'm stuck here :(
Adrien Mercier
2023-04-10 16:14:08 +0000 UTCI meant you could do a check on launch for invalid licenses only, that would be a small obstacle at best but would help you with this. Why don't you just sell licenses on the website? You could have a cheaper price without the Patreon fee and advertise the instant delivery as well. I find it tricky to believe that Patreon takes this long to process payments, I got charged immediately when I subscribed and received access to all the content within here, it sounds like it's an issue with just their api if so. also, does Patreon not do checks on payment methods? I'd expect them to reimburse you if a license was issued with no payment provided.
Christopher Robinson
2023-04-10 14:31:33 +0000 UTCThis won't happen - it would mean forcing users to be online to use the app, which isn't realistically feasible. I mean, i don't see myself forcing everyone to be online just to avoid a 20min wait when purchasing a license.
Adrien Mercier
2023-04-10 13:59:54 +0000 UTCIf this can be done immediately it sounds like a solution, what you need is a way to terminate these licenses if they are unpaid for.
Christopher Robinson
2023-04-10 13:57:34 +0000 UTCI'm sorry you find Patreon too slow. It's not something I have control on sadly. A few weeks ago, I was giving out licenses without waiting for payment confirmation. People started abusing the system using fake credit card and getting their licenses for free. I checked and your license was duly sent 8 minutes after you posted this
Adrien Mercier
2023-04-10 11:57:28 +0000 UTCJoined over 20 minutes ago and still can't download the license file, I am logged in via patreon on the website, I've tried multiple browsers, it should not take this long. I want to run an overnight stress test and am ready to go to bed, won't be subscribing again.
Christopher Robinson
2023-04-10 10:24:11 +0000 UTCWaiting a few minutes does the trick ! Patreon can take its time validating everything.
Adrien Mercier
2023-03-10 08:10:36 +0000 UTCWhat is the solution?
Patrick Hanrahan
2023-03-09 22:39:47 +0000 UTCYeah its kind of annoying dealing with these issues when you're paying for something that should be given in return...never had to wait on something that is already released
Jonathan Brady
2023-02-28 00:00:12 +0000 UTCImagine paying to get rid of 10 sec wait time, only to find out getting the license to work is a PITA. I don't mind paying for software, but could you guys please find a way to make the process like 10 times less frustrating. The popups are still not gone and the screenshots in this guide don't match my experience. There is no download license button. The website has a "upload license" page but i've no clue what to update there. I've no clue how to activate the license and I don't really care anymore. I'd like a refund.

2023-01-28 16:28:03 +0000 UTCHi, It's just patreon taking some time to validate your access. It was validated at 4:44PM yesterday (French time). As I said below, Im updating this post.
Adrien Mercier
2023-01-28 15:49:09 +0000 UTCHi, This is just Patreon taking some time to validate your access. I don't know when exactly you subbed, but I got the green light from them at 4:17PM (French time) when your comment was posted at 4:13PM (again, french time). I will update this post with a "please wait a few minutes for Patreon to do its thing" :)

2023-01-28 15:12:47 +0000 UTChi! I dont get the lic download option after logging in
sebagsm
2023-01-27 15:41:31 +0000 UTCHey thanks for the update. Normally running that many test would be unnecessary but I'm getting a bsod that either has to do with driver issue or failing memory I think. So being able to test the entire system at once was what I was hoping to do, all good I'll just individually run the tests and see if I get any errors. Thanks!
Brad J
2022-12-21 17:13:27 +0000 UTCHi Brad, You are right, system stability certificate are coming with v12. This text should be updated, as I decided mid way to push that feature back, sorry. I'll change it right now. Chaining test is possible but with the enterprise license. However, for a single computer, you shoudn't have to run that many tests that not having this feature will prevent you from using OCCT :) Edit : silly enter key
Adrien Mercier
2022-12-21 16:26:46 +0000 UTC"Stability certificates can target your whole system, or individual components. Use the top-level tabs to choose" - I signed up for the license to do a stability certificate to test all the components of my system but all it says under that category in that app is that "system" and "gpu" are in the works, but didn't say anything about that on the webpage?? Might be something to update on the subscription page. In the meantime is it possible to build out a test schedule so I can test all systems? I'm running into a bsod error but didn't want to take 3 days to keep coming back and setting up the next test. Was hoping to be able to just line up all the tests and leave it run for the night to see if anything came up. Thanks!

2022-11-20 18:33:54 +0000 UTCI am having the same issue as Runkai. There is no license download available thru the link provided.
John Robinson
2022-11-20 18:32:48 +0000 UTCHi, I don't see a license download and got the OCCT Personal can not be used in commercial or professional environments. A Pro or Enterprise license is required, Message instead where the license download option is.
Runkai
2022-10-11 13:59:16 +0000 UTCHi ! Thanks for subbing :) I did give it a shot and it didn't work in Chrome, but worked in Firefox. I'm reporting this bug to Patreon right now. Make sure you select "Login with Patreon" in my website, and in the patreon's auth box, use the "Google" box to login. I hope this helps !
Adrien Mercier
2022-04-27 12:53:03 +0000 UTChi, my patreon account was created with google and I cannot login on the website. Is there a way to be able to log in?
