Have an old Malwarebytes license key (and ID) that I've used for windows previously. It's a 3-pc lifetime key. To my knowledge when going to buy a license key, it says it is compatible for windows and macOS, hence I am assuming this is the same here.
Malwarebytes For Mac License
Lifetime licenses are no longer being sold, and existing lifetime licenses are only valid for the Windows product. They are not intended for use with the Mac or Android products, and will not work with them.
Malwarebytes for Windows and Malwarebytes for Macs are different products with different features, but both were engineered to accept the new license keys. Similar to what I stated in quoted text above, Malwarebytes for Mac will not accept any license keys purchased before July 31. But if you purchased a key after July 31, that license key will be accepted in either the Windows or Mac version.
On average, members of the Techbench Advanced program make $40 per license sold by bundling software and services. Most of our Advanced members see a return on investment within a week of becoming a partner.
The software license[42] requires arbitration "in the county where you reside", forbids class action suits, reverse engineering and sharing, and limits warranties and liability. Even the free version may not be shared, since the company tracks use of the product separately for each user.
Malwarebytes' privacy policy[43] lists many types of information they collect and store, including, amongst other things, software running on a user's computer ("programs installed or in use"), "name, email address, mailing address, or phone number... company name, company size, business type... Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, the files viewed on our site ... operating system, date/time stamp, and/or clickstream data ... type of device you use, operating system version, and the unique device identifier... language... 32- or 64-bit... Information from the Windows Security/Action Center, including security settings and programs installed or in use... license... the number of seats being managed by that installation of the console[,] Endpoint domain information... organization to which the IP address is licensed, if any".[44]
The company also collects detailed information on malware and exploits they find, tied to the user's license number and device identifier, "vendor... File path of exploit process... Command-line arguments passed to the exploit... (Potentially) a copy of the exploit executable itself".[44] The company does not list the license number as PII.
Malwarebytes is a security program that protects your Mac from malicious threats. Law School students are entitled to (1) free premium license, for one (1) Mac of your choice. The license needs to be validated every 12 months.
With the release of Malwarebytes 3.8, a new license system is being used that enforces the 1 PC per Lifetime license restriction. This has caused a wave of complaints by users who are now finding that their license is not working on multiple machines.
In 2014, Malwarebytes decided to switch to a yearly subscription model and offered their users the ability to purchase additional Lifetime licenses for $24.95 for a limited amount of time. This license was intended for only one PC, but Malwarebytes did not enforce this restriction when users installed it on other machines.
With a new license system in place for the recently released Malwarebytes 3.8, when users are upgrading to the new version, they are discovering that their license key is only working for one of their computers.On their other PCs, they are receiving an alert that states "The usage level has exceeded the max volume allowed. There is a problem with your license key and we are unable to activate your license" as shown below.
This is obviously upsetting to many users [1, 2, 3] who have been utilizing the license on multiple computers for many years thinking that it was ok to do so. Malwarebytes on the other hand is stating that these were always single PC licenses and that they were just not enforcing the restriction.
If it turns out that a user is using a single PC license on multiple computer, they can create an account profile and login to it. Once logged in they can deactivate the license on PCs that they are no longer using Malwarebytes or do not wish to be protected, so that the license can be used on a more important computer.
At this time, if you are affected by this issue, Malwarebytes is stating that you need to purchase an additional license. It is not known if this stance will change due to the complaints of the affected users.
Malwarebytes reported that this occurred because I received my Mac back after having its LogicBoard and Hard Drive both Replaced. Deactivating it, and then reactivating it solved this. Doing so is the same method one would take if they were to sell their Mac, and then transfer the license.
FWIW, transferring a software license is no longer possible in most instances because you are only paying for a license to use the software and that is usually now restricted to one person/computer and cannot be transferred to another person. The buyer needs to buy their own.

Here is the dashboard on the website after installation and activation is complete. There are links for activation instructions for other devices (such as Android, iOS etc.) and a list of your already installed devices. If you want to move the license, you can simply deactivate all and then follow steps 1-5 on the new device.
Will this be replacing the Bitdefender based Endpoint Protection in the future? Will there be an option to migrate existing licenses from Bitdefender based protection TO Malwarebytes based protection?
I have installed malwarebytes on a couple of machines. I did not uninstall it from those machines and have since either changed the name or the machine is no longer functioning. I can not get it uninstalled to release the license. I have deleted the machines from my listing and now they are showing on the malwarebytes as generic numbers no longer the name of the machine. HOw do I release the license to be able to use it on other equipment that I have gotten to replace those.
