The add-on can be installed via the Remote Install & Update menu in the JReviews administration.
To install or update the addon you must have previously purchased it, your JReviews version needs to match or be greater than the one specified for the addon and you must have a valid "Upgrades & Support" package for your JReviews license.
If you purchased the addon, but it still says "addon not active for this license", go to the JReviews admin license screen, clear the local key text area and re-submit the license number. This will fetch a new local key that includes the addon information.
On the Install & Update page, check the Updates checkbox, and click on the Install button next to the PaidListings Add-on like on this image:
