FAQ 1: What if I forget / don’t receive my Driver Easy license key after purchase?
If you don’t receive your license key immediately after purchase, please don’t panic. This usually happens when our payment provider identifies certain flags in the transaction that might suggest fraud. While our payment provider is investigating the transaction, the payment is not taken (only pre-authorised) and the license key is not sent. In almost all cases, it turns out to be a false alarm, and the transaction is approved within 30-60 minutes. The license key is sent automatically as soon as the transaction is approved. All of this is done to ensure that your card isn’t used fraudulently.
You can also go to our Resend License Key page to retrieve your key. If it doesn’t work, you can directly contact Driver Easy support with your order ID or the email address you used to purchase Driver Easy license key attached and we will help you find your key quickly.
