Microsoft Renewal Update: Avoid the 5% Price Increase Before 1st April 2025
Microsoft is making changes to its subscription renewal approach, and businesses must act now to avoid an upcoming price increase.
From 1st April 2025, Microsoft is standardising monthly billing prices for annual term subscriptions across Buy Online, CSP, and MCA-E, leading to a 5% price increase on affected plans. If your business relies on monthly billing for annual-term Microsoft subscriptions, now is the time to take action to lock in your current pricing before the increase takes effect.
What’s Changing?
Microsoft is adjusting its pricing structure for annual commitment subscriptions that are billed monthly. This change applies to:
- Microsoft CSP subscriptions
- Buy Online & MCA-E subscriptions
From 1st April 2025, all of these plans will see a 5% price increase.
To avoid this price rise, businesses have the option to renew early and secure their current pricing. Click here to see Microsoft’s suggested steps or renew now at our portal.
