How long after purchase does code come?

I purchased an early adopter license today, any idea how long before I get an email with the license code or file?

It should arrive quickly to the email adress linked to the paypal account you used to make the payment.

Be sure to check your junk folder, the email is to be sent by: licensehelpttk@scirra.com and should be titled "You Construct 2 License".

Mine took a few days, but that was because it was an e-cheque. It should be pretty much straight away. If 24 hours go by, and you still do not have it... it might pay to PM Tom and ask him about it.

Usually Paypal clears and the email is dispatched within 24 hours. However, I noticed your payment has come up as an eCheque, so it could be a couple of days I'm afraid. I'm not sure why some payments come up as eCheques, probably just a quirk of the Paypal system.

We've had a few cases where users enter an email address which isn't working/is full/etc. and then cannot receive their license email. If it's been a week and there's no sign of an email, send us an email to licensehelpbiv@scirra.com from another account with your transaction ID and we can manually re-send your license.

Thanks for the quick responses everyone! I see paypal has charged my bank account (probably why its an eCheque vs if I had had $ directly in paypal) and I'll check back again tomorrow.

If you paid by echeque be prepared to wait 5-7 days! There is little we can do to expedite this I'm afraid, echeques are very slow :(

I'm up and running now! Got the license. How do I get the nice little early adopter badge for my avatar?

Done it for you :)
