Back to School sale questions
Do I need a coupon code for the 2026 Back to School Sale?
No. Every discount in this sale is applied to the listed price. Add the licence to your cart and check out — there is no code to enter and no minimum spend.
When does the sale end?
The Back to School Sale runs for a limited period during the 2026 term-start season. The countdown at the top of this page shows the exact time remaining. Prices return to normal once it closes.
How quickly will I get my licence key?
Digital delivery is automatic. Most keys arrive by email within a few minutes of a successful payment, at any hour, in any country we serve.
Are these genuine Microsoft licences?
Yes. Every key we sell activates through Microsoft's own activation servers and receives official updates. Software is downloaded directly from Microsoft.
Is this a subscription?
No. These are perpetual licences — a single payment, no renewal, no monthly fee. The licence stays valid for the version you bought.
Can I use one key on more than one computer?
It depends on the product. Licences marked "3 PC" or "5 PC" cover that many machines; single-device licences cover one. The device count is written into every product title and description.
Do you sell to students outside the US?
Yes. We deliver to customers in more than 190 countries. Because the product is a digital key, there is no shipping cost and no customs delay anywhere.
What if the key doesn't activate?
Email support@mscdkeys.com with your order number and the error message. We'll troubleshoot it or replace the key. Refunds are handled under our Refund Policy.
