# Creating a Business Account and Registering Your License
When you purchase a Parallels Desktop Enterprise Edition license, you must register it with a Parallels Business Account to be able to activate Parallels Desktop for Mac installations.
To create a Parallels Business Account, go to [this page](https://my.parallels.com/login) and select the **I am a new user** option. Once you log into your customer dashboard, follow the procedure described in [this chapter](/landing/pd-ag/parallels-desktop-licensing-guide/signing-up-and-registering-a-subscription/creating-a-parallels-account-and-registering-a-subscription/creating-a-business-account.md) of our Licensing Guide to register your Parallels Desktop Enterprise Edition license.
Your license must be registered to a Parallels Business Account before it may be used to activate Parallels Desktop. Registration is critical to:
* Protect the ownership of your license.
* Unlock features that make the lives of IT administrators easier.
* Access Premium Support and get visibility into your open tickets.
The information about your Parallels Desktop Enterprise Edition license and setup will appear in your dashboard, and you can proceed with the deployment process.
