Selling a software license

I'm selling a software license for Native Instruments and I want to make sure I correctly categorize it before it goes public.

 

This is correct, right?

"Everything Else > Information Products > Information Services"

Re: Selling a software license

Do you own the rights to this software that you plan to sell?  Personally, I would probably not sell the license to software to which I owned the rights on eBay.  If I had developed the software I would probably have a site to sell it on.

Re: Selling a software license

"Sellers not approved by eBay to list electronically delivered items need to list their items in the Everything Else > Information Products category in the classified ad format."

https://www.ebay.com/help/policies/prohibited-restricted-items/digitally-delivered-goods-policy?id=4...

 

And selling the license with conditions is allowed, but you knew that.

 

"b) Except if otherwise stated within this EULA, Licensee may resell the software to a third party or transfer the software permanently free of charge, provided the third party agrees in writing with this EULA and Licensee ceases all use of the software, completely removes all installed copies of the software from its computer and – if the software was not purchased via download – deletes or transfers the original data storage to the third party (if Licensee is not obliged to a longer storage by law). In addition, Licensee is required to de-register the purchased software with Native Instruments. Following respective request from Licensee via its email address registered with Native Instruments, the serial number of the Product will be transferred by Native Instruments to the third party, and at the same time the registration of Licensee for the software purchased will be deleted.."

Re: Selling a software license

There should be a category for computer > software or something like that. Also I dont think ebay allows you sell just sell the code.

Actually only one category is officially allowed if you are not approved to sell the item;

"Sellers not approved by eBay to list electronically delivered items need to list their items in the Everything Else > Information Products category in the classified ad format"

 

Ebay also allows the sale of software keys if the seller is authorized (by the company) to sell it, and the terms of the op's license give authorization for resale.
