How Much Does Office Cost in 2026? Every Version Compared

In 2026, Office is sold in two ways: as a one-time purchase that you keep, or as a Microsoft 365 subscription billed by the month or by the year. Microsoft offers Microsoft 365 Personal and Microsoft 365 Family on a monthly or yearly basis, and sells the Office Home 2024 box as a one-time purchase; its prices for your country are shown on Microsoft’s official comparison page. At Euroshopkey, a perpetual license costs 24,90€ for Office 2024 Professional Plus, 19,90€ for Office 2021 and 12,90€ for Office 2019, and multi-PC packs bring the price per computer down further. Over three years, a Personal subscription means three annual payments, while Office 2024 Professional Plus is paid only once.

1. What Office costs in 2026: the six options to know

There isn’t one price for Office but six, depending on whether you rent the suite by the year or buy a license once and for all. Here they are.

• Microsoft 365 Personal, from Microsoft: a subscription for one person, billed monthly or yearly.
• Microsoft 365 Family, from Microsoft: the shared subscription, for up to six people.
• Office Home 2024: the Microsoft box, sold as a one-time purchase.
• 54,99€: Office 2024 Home and Student at Euroshopkey, with Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook.
• 24,90€: Office 2024 Professional Plus at Euroshopkey, six apps, lifetime license.
• 12,90€: Office 2019 Professional Plus at Euroshopkey, the entry point of the range.

Microsoft’s own prices vary from one country to another: check them on its official Microsoft 365 comparison page.

2. Microsoft 365 Personal and Family: what you pay each year

Microsoft 365 Personal and Microsoft 365 Family are sold by the month or by the year, at the prices shown on Microsoft’s official comparison page for your country. Paying monthly costs more over a year than paying annually, for Personal as well as for Family.

You get Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook, always up to date, plus online storage and Copilot. What you don’t get is ownership of the software: when the payments stop, the apps switch to read-only.

The subscription keeps the edge if you want the latest version at all times, need to equip a household with both Macs and PCs, or rely on the online storage. In our range, the subscription-style option is Office 365 for 12 months on 5 devices.

3. Office 2024 as a one-time purchase from Microsoft

Microsoft sells Office Home 2024 as a one-time purchase at its own list price, while Office 2024 Professional Plus costs 24,90€ at Euroshopkey, with one more app.

The Microsoft box brings together Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and OneNote for one PC or Mac. The Professional Plus edition adds Access, for six programs on 1 PC, and follows the same lifecycle, until October 9, 2029.

Publisher is no longer part of Office 2024: Microsoft has removed it from the suite. Office LTSC Professional Plus 2024 brings together Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, OneNote and Access, six apps, available since September 2024. Publisher remains in Office 2021 Professional Plus (19,90€).

These are genuine Microsoft licenses, activated on Microsoft’s servers. Reselling pre-owned software licenses is legal in the European Union. Our dedicated page explains why these licenses are legal.

4. Office 2021 and Office 2019: price and cut-off dates

Office 2021 Professional Plus costs 19,90€ and Office 2019 Professional Plus 12,90€ at Euroshopkey, but their support calendar changes the choice in 2026. Dates taken from Microsoft’s lifecycle pages on September 16, 2026.

• Office 2019: extended support ended on October 14, 2025 (Pacific time). It only makes sense for an offline computer.
• Office 2021: Microsoft’s retirement date is October 13, 2026, after which no more security updates are released.

That is why we recommend Office 2024 Professional Plus (24,90€), supported until October 9, 2029. The details of each release are in our Office 2021 or Office 2024 comparison.

5. All Office 2026 prices in one table

Here are all the Office offers of 2026 in a single table: price, devices covered, cost over three years and end of support. Microsoft’s prices depend on your country and are shown on its comparison page; Euroshopkey prices are read live from our product pages.

Watch out for two similar names. Office Home 2024, the Microsoft box, brings together Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and OneNote for one PC or Mac. Office 2024 Home and Student at Euroshopkey is a different product: Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook, for 1 PC.

For a single PC, among the versions still supported, Office 2024 Professional Plus (24,90€) is the least expensive option in this table over three years, because it is paid only once.

No crossed-out prices here: Microsoft does not sell the Professional Plus editions to consumers, so there is no public price to compare them with.

6. The real cost, per PC and over three years

The price per PC goes down with a multi-PC pack, and over three years Office 2024 Professional Plus is paid only once, whereas Microsoft 365 Personal is paid every year. The two calculations:

• Per PC: 24,90€ for a single license; with a multi-PC pack, each computer costs less than with separate purchases (the pack options are on the product page).
• Per app: Office 2024 Professional Plus includes six apps, against five in the Office Home 2024 box sold by Microsoft.
• Microsoft 365 Personal: three years means three annual payments, or 36 monthly payments.
• Microsoft 365 Family: likewise, three annual payments or 36 monthly ones.
• Office Home 2024 from Microsoft: paid once.
• Office 2024 Professional Plus at Euroshopkey: 24,90€, paid once.

Equipping five PCs takes a single payment with a five-PC pack, whereas Microsoft 365 Family is billed again every year. Compared with a Microsoft 365 Personal subscription, a perpetual license pays for itself within the first year.

The PCs covered by a pack don’t have to be activated on the same day. See also our Office page, our guide Microsoft 365 or Office 2024 and the free alternatives to Microsoft Office.

7. How it works

Four steps, and for most orders less than ten minutes between payment and your first open document.

1. You choose and you order. Office 2024 Professional Plus (24,90€), a multi-PC pack or Office 2021 (19,90€).
2. You receive the key by email, with the official download link and the invoice. Most orders are delivered automatically a few minutes after payment, and every order within 48 business hours at most.
3. You install and you activate. Enter the key, and activation takes place on Microsoft’s servers. Our Office 2024 activation guide shows every screen.
4. If anything blocks, our support team answers by email 7 days a week, within 2 hours on average, from the support page. A defective key is replaced, for life.
