When developing with Altera® FPGAs, if you use paid Quartus® Prime development software, paid IP (Intellectual Property), or Questa* - Altera® FPGA Edition, you will need a license file for that product. After purchase, you (the license administrator) will obtain the license file from the manufacturer's dedicated website, the "Self Service Licensing Center (SSLC)". If this is your first time signing in to the Self Service Licensing Center, please register beforehand.

When obtaining a paid license through the Self Service Licensing Center, please sign in with the account created using the "license administrator email address" that you provided to your reseller at the time of purchase.
