# Activate your licence

BurpGPT Pro features are available after your licence is active. If the licence dialog does not open automatically after loading the extension, open it from `BurpGPT Pro -> Licence`.

## Activate a licence

1. Open `BurpGPT Pro -> Licence`.
2. Paste your licence key into the `Licence key` field.
3. Click `Activate`.
4. Confirm that `Status` changes to `Activated`.

After activation, the `BurpGPT Pro` tab, context-menu scan action, and `AI Chat` editor are available in Burp Suite.

## Refresh licence status

Use `Refresh` when you need to update the displayed licence status, validity dates, activation count, or licensed email.

The licence dialog shows:

* `Status`: Current licence state.
* `Licensed to`: Email address associated with the licence.
* `Order ID`: Order identifier for the licence.
* `Activations`: Used and allowed activations.
* `Expires`: Licence expiry date.

If activation fails, see [What are the possible causes for an unsuccessful activation of my BurpGPT Pro?](/help-and-faq/faq/what-are-the-possible-causes-for-an-unsuccessful-activation-of-my-burpgpt-pro.md).
