CorelDRAW for Business FAQs

Yes! Enter the e-mail address of the Corel customer account when you're asked to provide account credentials when you import the license, or in the CorelDRAW deployment process (when creating a server image). Afterward, you can log in to Corel.com as usual, check license status, and access managed installations in the “Team products” section. Note that this Corel account will be used to administer the CorelDRAW product licenses assigned to it. Consider creating this administrative account using a specific email rather than a personal email as the account username.

Only the CorelDRAW Graphics Suite and CorelDRAW Technical Suite licenses can be displayed and managed in the Corel customer account. Downloads and serial numbers for licenses of all Corel products are provided with the Proof of Entitlement Certificate e-mail.

CorelDRAW licenses are managed via a Corel customer account that provides access to all license orders for matters about this product and include cloud-based contents and functionality. The software download and serial numbers for installation and deployment are provided with the Proof of Entitlement Certificate e-mail, which does not allow for license management without assigning the license to (an administrative) customer account.
If you don't want to take advantage of the license management options provided in the license management console, you can deploy the software without assigning individual installations to a customer account. For further information and detailed instructions about software deployment options for your CorelDRAW product, please consult the Deployment Guide.

Yes – as of March 2025, you can assign individual licenses from your registered business licenses or volume subscriptions to individual users. The Corel customer account provides options for the license administrator (account owner) to invite users and grant “a seat” to a selected user. Invited users can access the software through their own Corel customer account. The admin has full control over the licenses and can revoke “a seat” at any time to free up the license for another user.

When registering a new license (by importing the license with a license import code or by installing and authenticating the product), log into your Corel customer account containing the previously purchased licenses. After the license has been registered, you will find both existing and new licenses in the online account. Volume subscriptions and business licenses from March 2025 onwards are listed in the “Team products” section of the online account. In that section, you can merge two licenses of the same product and license type. Select the "Merge subscriptions" option to consolidate two licenses into one "license package." Note that merged subscription licenses will have a pro-rated renewal date, considering the number of licenses and subscription days left. Call Customer Support for assistance with merging CorelDRAW product licenses in your Corel account.

For detailed information and instructions about license management options for your CorelDRAW product, please consult the Corel Knowledgebase.

For detailed information and instructions about software deployment options for your CorelDRAW product, please consult the Deployment Guide.

When a new version of your licensed CorelDRAW product is released, maintenance licensees will receive a notification via email. The Upgrade notification with all required information on how to obtain the installation files and serial numbers for installation and deployment will be delivered to the email account the maintenance license certificate has been delivered to.

All order-related information is included with the Proof of Entitlement Certificate e-mail. When you get closer to the renewal date, you might be contacted by Corel or by your reseller for a renewal offer. For further information, please contact your Corel software reseller.
CorelSure Maintenance for CorelDRAW licenses from March 2025 onwards can also be imported into your Corel customer account. Once a maintenance purchase has been imported (from the Proof of Entitlement Certificate e-mail received with a license import code), it can be found in the “Maintenance” section of the online account. Note that the Maintenance term displayed in the Corel customer account reflects the information from the license purchase order. On renewal of CorelSure Maintenance, the renewal purchase can be imported again and will show as a new record in the Maintenance section of the online account.

Government and public sector organizations will never be charged more than the Level 4 price per license (251+ seats), meaning they always get one of the best unit prices available, regardless of the number of licenses required. To take advantage of a license or discuss options in more depth, please contact our License team.

All products contained in CASL or CASL Premium licenses are offered for download with a serial number(s) in the Proof of Entitlement Certificate e-mail. This includes CorelDRAW Graphics Suite and CorelDRAW Technical Suite (CASL Premium only). As a customer with an active Academic Site License, you will receive Upgrades of the included products in an email as new versions are released. The “Maintenance Upgrade” is delivered with the required download(s) and serial no.(s) to the contact address of the original licenses that have been delivered.
