**One key per Pangolin server instance**
**At least one key per Pangolin server instance**
Each host (server) running Pangolin requires its own license key. You cannot share a single key across multiple servers. A server is considered to be a single database instance.
You can activate more than one key on the same server to increase its user and site capacity — see [Adding Capacity with Multiple Licenses](#adding-capacity-with-multiple-licenses).

## Adding Capacity with Multiple Licenses
If your server needs more user or site capacity than a single license provides, you can generate and activate additional license keys on the same server instead of purchasing a larger plan. Alternatively reach out to support to update your contract.
- **Capacity stacks**: The user and site limits from every valid key activated on the server are added together.
- **Highest tier wins**: Feature access is based on the highest tier among your active keys. For example, activating a Scale-tier key alongside a Starter-tier key unlocks Scale-tier features across the whole server.
- **Personal keys can't combine with paid keys**: If a paid (non-personal) key is active on the server, any personal-use keys are automatically excluded and stop counting toward capacity.
<Steps>
<Step title="Generate an additional license">
Purchase or generate another license key from [app.pangolin.net](https://app.pangolin.net) — see [Purchase a license key](/self-host/purchase-license-key).
</Step>
<Step title="Add it to your server">
Log in with server admin credentials, open the Server Admin panel, and go to the License section at `/admin/license`. Use **Add** to activate the additional key — it's added alongside your existing key(s) rather than replacing them.
</Step>
<Step title="Verify combined capacity">
The License section shows your combined user and site limits across all activated keys.
