Monthly Activation Key

As part of your monthly subscription, you’ll receive a new activation key for the Auction Flex Legacy software on your scheduled billing date. Once your current key expires, you’ll need to update it within Auction Flex. To do this:

  • Go to Miscellaneous at the top of the screen, then select Company Information.
  • Locate the Activation Key field at the bottom of the window.

Click Update AK. You can either:

  • Manually type in the new key,
  • Copy and paste it with Ctrl + V, or
  • Download it directly if your Auction Flex software is linked to HiBid.

If you encounter any issues, your activation key may be affected by one of the following errors:

  • Make sure your billing is up-to-date and that you’ve downloaded the latest activation key.
  • The activation key is tied to the exact company name listed on HiBid, including punctuation and capitalization (e.g., Auction Flex Auction LLC. requires a period after LLC). Double-check that the key matches the company name exactly as recorded.
  • Ensure you have the correct key for your software’s major version. If needed, request a new key for the appropriate version.
