How Long Does a License Last? (One-Time Purchase vs Subscription)

Microsoft Office Licences

All Microsoft Office licences we sell (Office 2019, 2021, and 2024) are one-time purchases. This means:

• You pay once and the licence is yours permanently
• There is no recurring subscription fee
• The licence does not expire
• Microsoft will continue to provide security updates for the supported lifecycle of the product

Windows Product Keys

Windows product keys (Windows 10, Windows 11 Pro) are also one-time purchases. Once activated, the key is permanently linked to your system and does not expire.

Autodesk Products (AutoCAD, Revit, Fusion 360, etc.)

Autodesk licences are sold as subscriptions. You choose a subscription period (typically 1 year or 3 years) at the time of purchase.

• 1-year licence — Access for 12 months from the date of assignment
• 3-year licence — Access for 36 months from the date of assignment

When your subscription period ends, the software will stop working unless you purchase a renewal.

What Happens When an Autodesk Subscription Expires?

When your Autodesk licence expires:

• You will see an "expired" or "no active subscription" message when launching the software
• Your files and projects are not lost — you can still access them after renewing
• Contact our support team to purchase a renewal, and we will reassign the licence to your account

Can I Renew Before It Expires?

Yes. If your Autodesk subscription is approaching its end date, contact us and we can arrange a renewal so there is no gap in your access.
