Theme license & Transfer

circle-info

When you purchase Hyper theme from the Shopify Theme Store, that theme is licensed exclusively to the store where the purchase was made.

🛑 Unlicensed themes don't qualify for support or theme updates.

For more detailed information on licensing, refer to Shopify’s Terms of Servicearrow-up-right.

Unlicensed theme use

If you're notified that you have an unlicensed theme or you've received a Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) notice, then you must take one of the following specific actions:

  • Purchase: Buy the theme for the store where you plan to use it. For all that's worth it, Hyper is your best choice.

  • Delete: If you choose not to purchase the theme, simply remove it from your theme library.

  • Transfer: In cases where you previously purchased a theme for an old store but no longer use it there, you might be able to transfer it to your new store.

Am I allowed to import a theme from a different store?

Importing a theme to another store is only possible if the theme was originally purchased from the Shopify Theme Store for that specific store.

How to transfer a license?

Currently, Shopify doesn't offer a way to transfer a theme license between stores without permanently closing the original store.

For specific instructions and requirements on transferring a license, please reach out to Shopify support.
