Description
This listing is a Microsoft Office 365 Pro account for up to 5 devices, supplied as sign-in details rather than a product key. It suits individuals and small teams who want Office on Windows, Mac, iPhone and Android for a one-time payment. Your username and password are delivered by email.
What you receive and what is included
You receive a ready-made Microsoft work account: a username in email format and a password. It is not a 25-character licence key. It is also not a personal Microsoft 365 plan that you buy from Microsoft yourself.
The account is created and managed through the store. Microsoft renamed Office 365 to Microsoft 365 in 2020, so you will see both names during setup.
- Up to 5 devices across Windows PCs, Macs, iPhone, iPad and Android.
- Desktop apps: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and OneNote, plus Access on Windows.
- Publisher on Windows, until Microsoft retires Publisher in October 2026.
- Microsoft Teams sign-in with the same account.
- Office for the web in any modern browser.
The desktop apps install through Click-to-Run, Microsoft's streaming installer. Because of this, Microsoft delivers feature and security updates automatically. You do not need to reinstall to get the newest version, unlike a fixed release such as Office 2024 Professional Plus for Windows.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a one-time payment version of Office 365?
Microsoft sells Microsoft 365 plans for home users as monthly or yearly subscriptions. This listing works differently. LicenceHouse supplies a ready-made account for a one-time payment, with no renewal fee charged by the store. The account stays managed through LicenceHouse, not through your own Microsoft billing.
What exactly do I receive after buying this account?
You receive a username and password by email. The account gives you the Office apps on up to 5 devices and of storage. You do not receive a product key. You sign in with the supplied details instead of creating your own Microsoft subscription.
What should I do if I cannot sign in to the account?
First check that you typed the full username, including the part after the @ sign. Make sure Caps Lock is off, or paste the password from the email. If sign-in still fails, email support@licencehouse.com with your order number and a screenshot. This listing includes a 30-day warranty.
Can I use the account on a Mac, iPhone and Android?
Yes. The account covers up to 5 devices across Windows, macOS, iOS and Android. On a computer, download the installer from office.com after you sign in. On a phone or tablet, install Word, Excel or PowerPoint from the app store, then sign in with the same account.
