How to Get a License for My FiveM Server


What is the FiveM license?

The FiveM server license is a mandatory requirement to run your server. Without this key, your server will not start properly or connect to the FiveM network.


Steps to obtain a FiveM license

1. Create an account on Cfx.re

  • Go to the official Cfx.re website
  • Register or log in using your Discord account.

Sign up on Cfx.re


2. Generate a license for your server

- Server name: your server name

Keymaster form to generate license

  • Save the generated key, as you will need it for configuration.

3. Add the key to your server

  • Go to your FiveM server folder.
  • Edit the server.cfg file.
  • Add the following line:
sv_licenseKey "YOUR_GENERATED_KEY"

server.cfg file with license key added

Save the changes and restart your server.


Tips

  • Do not share your license: it is unique and linked to your server/IP.
  • If you change hosting or IP, you will need to generate a new license.
  • Keep your Cfx.re account secure with a strong password and 2FA.
