I created a thread here before, asking whether or not it were possible to create serial keys with an expiration date; https://www.dragonbyte-tech.com/threads/products-made-on-dragonbyte-ecommerce-say-lifetime.25778/
Unfortunately, this has not been implemented yet, and it would be a great feature to add.
There are lots of examples where expiring serial keys take place. For example, gift cards.
"How long do gift cards last? Federal law stipulates that gift cards can only expire five years after purchase. Its value can be diminished if it's not used within 12 months, as fees can be charged for inactivity, dormancy, and service." - Entrepreneur.com
Another example is in software. It is very common for software to allow for the activation of their product using serial keys. Malwarebytes, a popular anti-virus uses this system; but the keys they sell do not last forever. They have a time limit on them for how long they activate the product for.
You might also purchase a subscription to a website as a "gift" (which would come with some sort of code), where that gift would likely expire in time; if unclaimed. Not all serial keys will give a user access to a product for an infinite amount of time, which is why I believe an option to add expiring serial keys should be an option.
Be sure to upvote if you think that this could be a good addition to this software. Thanks.
