About the Office for Mac promotion

This license is a standalone purchase that's designed to last the "lifetime" of the machine you installed it on, but there is always a chance Microsoft could terminate the license. You also won't receive updates after Microsoft retires the 2021 version on Oct. 13, 2026. But at $49.99, this deal pays for itself when you factor in the Microsoft 365 subscription model costs at least $69.99 per year.
