I lost my license key.

Lost your license key?

Enter the email you used to purchase and we’ll resend your key.

Please enter a valid email address.

Done! If we have a license key on file for that email, you’ll receive it shortly. (Check your spam folder.)


Subscribed to Pastebot from the App Store?

The App Store version doesn’t have a license key. You have to download Pastebot from the App Store.

My license key isn’t working.

Have a Pastebot 2 license?

Pastebot 3 requires you to purchase a license specifically for v3. If you have a Pastebot 2 license already, you can use it to upgrade to Pastebot 3. Have your Pastebot 2 license available to enter as a promo code when you check out.


Is your Pastebot 3 license not working?

Email us at [email protected] so we can assist you further.

My App Store subscription isn’t working.

You can check the status of your subscriptions by going to your System Settings -> Apple Account (very top option) -> Media & Purchases -> Subscriptions. Make sure Pastebot 3 is an active subscription. If it isn’t, your subscription expired or you might have subscribed under another AppleID.

If you do have an active subscription, Pastebot should just work. If you get the subscription page, click on the “Restore Purchases” button. If you have tried that and are still having issues, email us at [email protected] for further help.

I’d like a refund.

If you purchased directly from Tapbots…

We offer a 30-day refund policy on Pastebot when purchased directly from us. We recommend trying the 14-day free trial before purchasing to make sure Pastebot is right for you. Contact us at [email protected] if you need a refund.


If you subscribed via the App Store…

Refunds for apps purchased or subscribed to on the App Store are handled by Apple. You can follow the instructions and link here.
