# Velocity

{% hint style="info" %}
The Velocity plugin is a licensed plugin only available after purchasing a PlayerPoof subscription.
{% endhint %}

## Step 1 - Install the plugin

Our velocity plugin is similar to any other plugin. 

First of all, you need an already setup velocity server which already has a folder called <mark style="background-color:red;">**plugins**</mark> in it.&#x20;

Now it is as simple as dragging and dropping the plugin jar file into this folder.

Then restart your server and you are good to go to the next section.

## Step 2 - License

Once you restarted your server, you will notice an error saying <mark style="background-color:red;">"Your license is not valid!"</mark>, which is perfectly normal at this point.

key = "YOUR LICENSE KEY HERE"
```

You will need to enter your license key in the <mark style="background-color:red;">**plugins/PlayerPoof/license.yml**</mark> file and restart your server again.&#x20;

In case your server still doesn't start, feel free to join [our discord](https://discord.gg/stellarmc) and open a ticket, we'll do our best to help you out.
