# Activating your SPLA subscriptions

To activate your SPLA subscription, you need a Parallels account. If you are currently a Parallels RAS customer and already have an account, your new subscription will be added to your account. If you are a new customer, an account will be created for you and your subscription will be registered.

Read the chapter that follows this one to learn how to activate Parallels RAS using your SPLA license key and how to use your Parallels account to manage SPLA subscription(s).

Please also read about [**Microsoft license requirements in Parallels RAS**](/landing/ras-spla-guide/microsoft-license-requirements-in-parallels-ras.md).
