Buy Microsoft Office For Windows or Mac Once, Use It Forever

Buying a Microsoft Office subscription straight from the source comes with one very big drawback — you have to pay for it every year, over and over, or you lose access to its essential productivity tools. And if you’re on an auto-renew plan, that sizable bill can take you by surprise.

Now, whether you’re a Windows or Mac user, you have the chance to buy it once and use it forever — StackSocial is offering huge discounts on lifetime licenses for Microsoft Office Professional 2021 for Windows and Microsoft Office Home & Business for Mac. Both deals — 84% off Office Pro 2021 for Windows and 63% off Office Home & Business for Mac — are limited-time only.

Instant Delivery and Download

Each of these lifetime licenses are instantly delivered upon purchase in the form of a redemption code emailed to you along with instructions on how to download and activate the software. You will be up and running within minutes in all of the great programs and tools that make up Microsoft Office. All languages are supported, and best of all, all future updates to any of the programs are included without requiring additional payment.

And, as a digital download, there’s no installation disc to have to keep track of. All you need for the Windows version is a PC that runs Windows 10 or 11 and 4 GB of available hard-drive space, and for the Mac version you need to be running Monterey, Ventura, or Sonoma, and have 10 GB of hard-drive space. Both versions also come with free customer support.

Every Office Tool You Need

Microsoft Office Pro 2021 for Windows, including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, OneNote, Publisher, Access, and the free version of Teams, is just $34.97 after StackSocial’s 84%-off deal. Microsoft Office Home & Business for Mac, which includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, the basic version of Teams, and the free version of OneNote, is just $79.97 after the limited-time 63% discount.

These Office programs, particularly Outlook, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, are the universal standards for productivity. There are other e-mail, word processing, spreadsheet, and graphic presentation programs out there, but ultimately they all have to be compatible with the Microsoft Office suite of programs, and many of them fall well short of the mark. With prices for lifetime licenses this low, without subscription renewal or upgrade fees, it only makes sense to skip the imitators and go straight to Office for Windows or Mac. StackSocial’s lifetime license deals are not going to be around forever, so check them out now!
