Activating Your Subscription and Managing Payments in MKController

To unlock the full potential of MKController and start efficiently managing your devices, the first step is to activate your subscription through payment. This process is designed to be intuitive and can be completed directly on the platform. Below, we detail how to make the payment and ensure unrestricted access to the system’s advanced features.

With your account duly activated, you will have a complete set of tools at your disposal, including centralized device control, detailed report generation, custom automation configuration, and access to our specialized technical support. Activating the subscription is the key to more effective, organized, and secure network management.

Making the Subscription Payment

To make the payment and activate your account, follow these simple steps:

1. Access the MKController platform at https://app.mkcontroller.com and log in using your registered username and password.
2. In the left sidebar menu, locate and click the gear icon, which represents Settings.
3. Within Settings, select the Financial option.
4. In the Financial section, click the Subscribe button to start configuring your plan.

On the next screen, you will need to provide some essential information:

• Currency: Choose the desired currency for the transaction (e.g., BRL for Brazilian Real or USD for US Dollar).
• Number of devices: Enter the exact number of devices you intend to manage through the platform.
• CPF/CNPJ (Customers in Brazil): If you are located in Brazil, an additional field will be displayed for you to enter your CPF or CNPJ. This information is necessary for the correct issuance of tax documentation.

After filling in all the fields, click Next.

It’s important to note that the default due date for monthly payments is always the 1st of each month. If you activate your account on a different date, you will only be charged the proportional amount for the remaining days of the current month, ensuring you only pay for the period used.

In the final step, you will be directed to the payment screen. Carefully fill in the information for your chosen payment method (such as credit card details) and click Pay to complete the transaction.

Once the payment is confirmed, your account will be activated instantly, granting access to all MKController features so you can manage your network with autonomy and security.
