Keylight

Issue licenses, collect payments, ship your Apple
apps with confidence

License infrastructure for Apple apps. Drop in the Swift SDK and verify entitlements locally with offline-ready Ed25519 leases — device limits, trials, and feature flags included. Payments are already wired: connect Stripe and licenses mint themselves.

Everything you need to ship

Stop building license infrastructure. Start building features.

Offline license verification

Ed25519-signed licenses your app verifies locally. No server call at runtime. Works on a plane, in a tunnel, anywhere.

Multi-product, multi-tenant

One deployment, many products. Manage licenses across all your apps and clients from a single dashboard.

Stripe-native billing

Link your Stripe account and payments mint licenses automatically. No webhooks to babysit, no glue code.

Activation tracking

See exactly how many instances each license has active, enforce seat limits, and revoke with one click.

Built-in security

Ed25519 signatures for licenses, Argon2id for secrets. Cryptography handled correctly so you don't have to think about it.

Feature flags

Ship Pro tiers and betas without a second SaaS. Each license carries its own flag set, signed into the lease and readable offline.

Up and running in 4 steps

From signup to your first live license in about 30 seconds of setup.

1

Create your account

Sign up and name your workspace. Your tenant ID, key prefix, and Ed25519 keypair are generated automatically.

2

Add your product

Give your app a product ID and key prefix. Keylight will use them to mint and verify licenses.

3

Install the Swift SDK

Add the package and drop in a few lines of Swift. The SDK handles license checks and surfaces the result to your UI.

4

Ship and earn

Connect Stripe and go live. Payments mint licenses automatically. Watch your dashboard fill up.

Keylight vs payment platforms

Paddle, Lemon Squeezy, Polar, and Gumroad help you sell software. Keylight decides who can use what, on which device, and for how long. Most apps need both — Keylight is the licensing half, built Apple-native.

Use Keylight when you need

  • Offline license verification
  • Device activation limits
  • Signed license files
  • Swift SDK integration
  • Feature flags per license
  • Renewal and revocation handling
  • A customer portal for licenses

Switching from Lemon Squeezy, Paddle, Gumroad, Creem, or your own setup is free — we bring your existing customers over and keep the keys you already issued, so nobody has to buy again.
