Systems and methods for creating a license during a purchasing process between a customer and a vendor are provided. In one implementation, a method may be executable by a vendor system in communication with a customer device in a decentralized computing infrastructure. The method may include the steps of receiving a purchase order from a customer to initiate a purchase of a software or hardware product, where the customer is associated with the customer device, and receiving a public key from the customer. Additionally, the method may include the steps of creating a smart contract for controlling a license related to the purchase of the software or hardware product and sending a contract address associated with the smart contract to the customer to enable the customer to activate the software or hardware product.
