Extend your Office 365 subscription and save money

6.1.2017

Translation: machine translated

Office 365 is actually quite a good thing. Of course, it's a plan and experience shows that most Swiss people don't really like plans. We like to call something our own. But once you do the maths, the price-performance ratio is pretty good. It's quick to add to cart and then buy, but how do I renew my existing Office 365 subscription?

Before your Office 365 subscription expires, you will receive a message from Microsoft saying that you need to renew your subscription. Microsoft will make you the offer at the RRP - not exactly favourable.

Step-by-step instructions

You can also easily extend your subscription via digitec. It's done in a few simple steps. Don't worry, it looks a lot worse than it is. It's really easy... I promise:

Order an Office 365 from us - there is no special upgrade version for this.
Sign in to your Microsoft account at hier. If you don't want to or can't do this, refer to the "Good to know" section further down on this page.
You should now see the following overview. Click on "Enter product key", the third last line in the text.

You can now see: "Hello. Let's get your office ready".

Click on the "Next" button and enter the key.

The key is checked immediately. If you have mistyped it, nothing will happen.
The view changes. You can now deactivate the automatic renewal, otherwise you will simply pay the RRP next year - which would mean unnecessary costs.

Good to know

If you can't or don't want to use the link above, you can also log in to your Outlook account and click on the blue square at the top left. A list will open. Select "Office" and the view changes. Click on "My account" in the orange bar and the view will change again. There is now a "Help and support" section at the bottom right. Click on the last link "Renew with an Office product key". Continue with point 4 mentioned above.

If you are very impressed by an offer, you have the option of buying several Office products at once. Simply go through the process as many times as you have purchased the Office. It will be automatically extended by one year each time.
