# Install and activate Pro

Offloft Pro is an add-on that runs next to the free plugin, which must stay installed and active. Download Pro using the link in your purchase email, upload it under **Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin**, activate it, then paste your license key under **Offloft → Account**.

## Steps

1. Make sure the free Offloft plugin is installed and active.
2. Download Offloft Pro from your purchase email or the [customer portal](https://users.freemius.com/).
3. Go to **Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin**, choose the zip, then click **Install Now** and **Activate**.
4. Open **Offloft → Account**, paste your license key and click **Activate license**.

## What you'll see

Offloft Pro adds settings to the screens you know: **Checks & repair**, **Alerts**, **Safety & local files**, plus automatic setup in the wizard.

See [manage your license](/docs/pro-license) for moving a site or renewing.
