Finding Your Program Code

Video of the Day

Microsoft issues program codes to companies whose employees are eligible for the Microsoft Office Home Use program. Your company's IT department should be able to provide you with the correct program code. Alternatively, you can start the ordering process without a program code by filling in your work email address in this form. Based on your work email address, Microsoft then determines whether you are eligible to participate in the Microsoft Office Home Use program and sends you an email with further instructions.

Additional Considerations

Microsoft only allows you to purchase a single license. In addition, it is worth noting that this license automatically expires if you stop working for your company or if your company does not renew its contract with Microsoft.
