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.

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.
