If you have registered an eLicenser-based license with your MySteinberg account that already offers the option of switching to the new Steinberg Licensing system, you will find the following entry under "Vouchers":
Upgrade to [product name] with Steinberg Licensing
By redeeming this voucher, you can change the license system and enjoy all the benefits of Steinberg Licensing. The old license will be kept, but cannot be upgraded or updated again.
Requirements for the change

- The version of Steinberg software you have installed supports Steinberg Licensing. This may require an update. If in doubt, update the software via the Steinberg Download Assistant. Here you will find a list of programs that allow you to switch to Steinberg Licensing.
