FAQs

How many users does Microsoft 365 Business Basic support?

Microsoft 365 Business Basic supports a maximum of 300 users. If you have more than 300 users or think you will soon, take a look at our other plan options.

What forms of payment can I use?

You can pay with all major credit cards, and your subscription amount will appear on your credit card statement. You have the option to receive an invoice and, depending on your choice of services, you will be billed monthly or annually. You receive an email message when your invoice is ready to be viewed and, if you enter a purchase order (PO) number when you buy your subscription, that number is included in your invoice.

What payment options are available? Can I pay monthly or annually?

You can choose monthly commitment payment or annual commitment payment for Microsoft 365.

  • Monthly commitment payment: You pay month by month, and you can cancel at any time.
  • Annual commitment payment: You sign up for a one-year subscription and choose to pay month to month or pay for the entire year at the time you sign up. There is a discount for using this payment option.

Can I cancel my subscription at any time?

You can cancel your subscription at any time; you may be entitled to a partial refund.

What happens to my data if I cancel my subscription?

Your data is yours. If you decide to cancel your Microsoft 365 subscription, you can download your data-for example, your email and documents on team sites-and save it to another location. You should save your data before you cancel. After you cancel your subscription, data associated with your Microsoft 365 account will be available to your administrator(s) in a limited function account for 90 days.

Can I switch to other Microsoft 365 plans?

Yes, you can transition your account to a different plan.

In most cases, you can use the switch plans wizard in your Admin Center to upgrade your plan. If your subscription has more than 300 users or if you used a prepaid card to purchase your plan, the switch plans wizard is not available. Plans that are not eligible for the switch plans wizard can be upgraded manually. Learn more about switching Microsoft 365 plans.
