# Grant License Manager seller issued licenses to ISV customers
<a name="isv-grant-licenses"></a>

After you add the new license, you can grant the license to a customer with an AWS account using the AWS Management Console. The recipient must accept the grant before using the license. For more information, see [Granted licenses in License Manager](granted-licenses.md).

Alternatively, if the customer does not have an AWS account, you can use the License Manager API to enable customers to [consume licenses](license-consumption.md).
