Licensing & payments · Licence status and offline use
What do the licence statuses in Storage Studio mean?
Short answer: Licensed means active; Trial shows days left; Payment didn't go through needs Fix Payment; Payment processing needs nothing; Payment needed means the subscription stopped; Working offline uses your saved licence.
Each status tells you where your plan stands and what, if anything, to do next.
- Licensed (green): your plan is active.
- Trial: days left in your free trial and its end date.
- Trial ended / Unlicensed: activate a licence or choose a plan to continue.
- Payment didn't go through (red notice, orange banner): a renewal failed but your licence is still active — use Fix Payment.
- Payment processing (blue): a payment is clearing; there's nothing to do.
- Payment needed / Subscription ended: the subscription stopped — Fix Payment or Subscribe again.
- Working offline: your saved licence is in use because the licence server couldn't be reached recently.
The status in Settings → License tells you which applies. Nothing on your drives changes because of a status.
