Sign in and activate the Restaurly PC
Activate this desktop computer so Restaurly can start the restaurant service and Dashboard.
Applies to: supported desktop platforms and account holder.
Before you begin
You need internet access and the intended account. Have an active paid plan with a spot, or select an available Free trial in your account first. An unexpired Free trial can be recovered only on its original installation, with its original expiry.
Activate the PC
- Open Restaurly and select Login.
- Sign in with the account that holds the selected Free trial or paid plan.
- Return to the app and read the activation explanation. Paid activation uses a spot; Free trial activation starts its seven days. Recovery retains the original trial expiry.
- Confirm this is the intended PC, then select Activate once.
- Wait for Successful Activation, then select Restart or reopen the app.
If no activation is ready, check account eligibility. A zero paid-spot balance does not block an available selected Free trial. Do not copy license files or buy a plan merely to clear the message.
What should happen
After restart, the activation page should be gone. Restaurly validates the installed license, starts the local restaurant service, and opens the PC Dashboard. For a new, uninitialized restaurant, the one-time setup form appears there automatically.
If it does not work
- Check the computer's internet connection, date, time, and time zone, then try the sign-in again.
- If sign-in succeeds but activation does not, check your selected trial and eligibility or the paid plan and spot balance.
- Record the exact message shown by Restaurly. Do not replace, rename, or delete license or protected-state files.
- If the page says the license is obsolete or reactivation is required, follow the guided reactivation path or contact support.
