# Assign Licenses

**Important: This step does not apply if you are using the free trial.**

          

Depending on your Blackthorn subscription, you may need to assign Licenses to your users in addition to assigning permission sets.

- If you are on the User Model, you must assign licenses per the instructions.
- If you are on the Registration based subscription, proceed to assign permission sets.

          **Requirement for Events Customers**

          

An Events authorization user must be assigned a Payments license. This prerequisite applies even if you are only offering Free Events.
