When registering your Sonnox plugin purchase, it’s important that you enter the correct iLok User ID and iLok‑registered email address. If your licence is deposited into the wrong account, you cannot move it yourself during the first 90 days due to iLok’s transfer restrictions.
How to Avoid this Issue:
Confirm Your iLok User ID Before Registration
- Open iLok License Manager.
- Sign in to your iLok account.
- Look in the top‑left corner of the window — your iLok User ID is displayed there.
- Use this exact User ID when registering your Sonnox purchase.
If You’ve Already Deposited your Licence into the Wrong iLok Account:
All iLok licences have a 90‑day transfer restriction from the date of deposit. This means you cannot move the licence yourself during this period. You must contact Sonnox Support to request assistance.
- Create a Sonnox Support Ticket.
- Please include:
- Your Sonnox Order Number.
- The incorrect iLok User ID the licence was deposited to.
- The correct iLok User ID where the licence should be moved to.
Our team will respond as quickly as possible to arrange the licence correction for you.
Troubleshooting
- If you have multiple iLok accounts, check each one in iLok License Manager to confirm whether the licence is already accessible.
- If you are unsure which account the licence went to, please contact Sonnox Support with all possible iLok IDs.

Q: Can Sonnox transfer the licence instantly?
A: We will process requests as quickly as possible, but licence correction depends on verification steps and may take some time.
