the new pay (donation) service

Ok so I'm obviously new to this so I have a couple of questions. When I go to donate there is an option for retailers and resellers. What does it mean when it says that the donation is sent not activated vs activated? I want to link it to my mac so I can continue watching tv on iptv so if it's not activated for iptv how would I activate it for iptv? Also once I donate and link my donation to my mac what will I have to do on July 15th to keep my iptv working?
 
Mike, getting a donation and registering a mac addy are two separate steps, so read carefully...to register you will need your donation #(12 digits) and your mac addy...
 
if you're speaking of emulator or stalker for iptv, that is correct...I can't guarantee it will work after the 15th, but given that NFPS made a post about the way to register those macs I would assume they are making every attempt possible to allow their use. If that is your case you may want to wait til after the 15th to donate and see how it goes, thks
 
Ok so I've been reading thru the posts and I'm a little confused still. Here's the way I understand it and I'm hoping someone can tell me if this is correct. I am running Kodi on a FireTV and I understand that I need to donate, register the mac to the donation, input the mac into my iptv stalker config and that should do it. Am I missing anything here? I have also read the iptv tutorial pdf and i'm still not sure exactly what to do.
