Purchase a License
Purchase a Business plan license for your self-hosted NocoDB instance through NocoDB Cloud.
NocoDB offers self-serve licensing for self-hosted deployments. Business plan licenses can be purchased directly through your NocoDB Cloud account and activated on your instance by entering the license key—no manual provisioning or sales engagement required. Enterprise plans, by contrast, are customized to your organization's requirements and provisioned by the NocoDB Sales team.
Prerequisites
- A self-hosted NocoDB instance running on PostgreSQL.
- A NocoDB Cloud account for purchasing and managing licenses.
Purchasing a License
1. Navigate to Self-Hosted Licenses
Log in to your NocoDB Cloud account. Click your avatar in the bottom-left corner and select Account Settings.
From the account settings sidebar, open Self-Hosted Licenses. If you have no licenses yet, you will see the empty state:
Click Buy Your First License to proceed to plan selection. If you already have licenses, click Buy New License from the list view.
2. Select a Plan
Choose your billing period and plan.
- Billing period — Toggle between Monthly and Annually. Annual billing applies a 20% discount.
- Business — Self-serve plan billed per editor. Your license starts at 1 seat. Editor (and above) seats added to your instance after activation are billed automatically based on your actual usage. Click Select Business to proceed to checkout.
- Enterprise — Custom plan tailored for your organization. Includes everything in Business plus SCIM, Row-Level Security, airgapped (offline) deployment, unlimited workspaces, and priority support. Click Contact Sales to get in touch with the NocoDB team.
3. Complete Payment
A Stripe embedded checkout form will appear. Enter your payment details and click Subscribe.
4. Copy Your License Key
After successful payment, your license key is displayed on the confirmation screen.
Click Copy License Key to copy it to your clipboard. You can also view all your licenses and retrieve the key later from the Self-Hosted Licenses list.
Once you have the key, follow License Activation to activate it on your instance.
Manage Billing
The Stripe billing portal is available from two places:
- From your instance — once a license is active, the second card on the Admin Panel → License page changes to Manage License. Click it to open the billing portal.
- From NocoDB Cloud — go to Account → Self-Hosted Licenses → Manage Billing.
The billing portal lets you:
- View current subscriptions and next billing dates
- Update or add payment methods
- Update billing information
- View invoice history
- Cancel a subscription
