Before the days of online subscriptions, managing your software was easy. You purchased it once, and you’re good for life, or at least until you decided to upgrade. Now, with Office 365, you can either purchase a yearly or monthly subscription, depending on your needs. But, do you know where you can go to manage it all if you decide you no longer want a subscription?
In this guide, we’ll give you a quick look at how you can take care of all things related to your Office 365 subscription.
Managing Office 365 with a Microsoft Account
If you’re using Office 365 with your Microsoft Account, of purchased Office 365 through Microsoft or a code through a retailer, you’ll need to manage your Office account from the Microsoft Account page. Simply log inand visit the page here. You’ll then want to chooseServices & Subscriptionsfrom the list running along the top of the page.
Next, you’ll need to search through the list and find your Office 365 Subscription associated with your account. Once you find it, there are a few things you can do from here, as we describe below.
If you’re still unsure of how to navigate your way around this page or manage your Office 365 subscription, Microsoft is still here to help. You can find links to help articles in theHelp with Microsoft Accountsection at the bottom of the overview page. Some common topics covered there include how to stop recurring billing, pay for subscriptions, and more.
Managing Office 365 with a work or school account
Not everyone wants to pay for Office 365, and if you’re using Office 365 for free with a school or work account, managing the subscription is a bit different. You’ll need to go to theMy Account pagefor your organization. Once you’re there, there are some common tasks that you can accomplish.
Final tidbits
In the event that you’re confused, and don’t remember your email address associated with your Office account, or if its a work, school, or personal account, don’t worry, You can always open up any of your installed Office applications to see your username and check the account tied to Office 365.
On Windows, you can do this by heading into a new Office file, and click theFilemenu. You can then click to the bottom where it saysAccount. From there, you’ll see your email underUser Information. You’ll also be able to clickManage Accounton the right side of the screen, which will redirect you back to themain Microsoft Account page,or theMy Accountpage, depending on which type of account is in use.
But, if all else fails, you can also feel free tocheck out Microsoft’s support pagefor more information.
