Office 2024 Home and Business for PC/Mac Key

What you get

After payment you receive your 25-character Office Home & Business 2024 product key by email, instantly in most cases (a system delay can occasionally add 5–10 minutes). The email includes the download link and our step-by-step install guide, and the key is also saved under My Account → Keys in case the email lands in your spam folder.

What is Office Home & Business 2024?

Office Home & Business 2024 is Microsoft’s one-time-purchase Office for home and small business: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and OneNote for one Windows PC or Mac. Unlike Office Home, it’s licensed for business use. Microsoft sends security updates until 9 October 2029. It doesn’t include Access or Copilot.

License and activation

You redeem the key on Microsoft’s official website, setup.office.com, with your Microsoft account. Office is then linked to that account: you install it from your account on your PC or Mac and manage it there. If you change computers, you can move Office to the new one through your Microsoft account.

Is it genuine? Why is it cheaper than Microsoft’s price?

Yes. It’s a genuine Microsoft key that you redeem and activate on Microsoft’s own website. We buy unused keys from companies that purchase Microsoft licenses in large batches and have more than they need. We get that surplus for a fraction of the retail price and pass the saving on to you.

We state the license type, activation method and device limit before you buy, and the key you receive is exactly the one described: an Office Home & Business 2024 key for one PC or Mac, linked to your Microsoft account.

How to install Office Home & Business 2024

1. Remove any Office trial that came with your computer, so it doesn’t conflict with the new installation.
2. Go to setup.office.com, sign in with your Microsoft account (or create one) and enter your product key.
3. Choose your language and click Redeem.
4. Install Office from your Microsoft account on your PC or Mac.
5. Open Word or Outlook and sign in with the same Microsoft account. Office activates automatically.

Screenshots of every step are in our Office 2024 activation guide.

If activation fails

• The key isn’t accepted: check that you typed it exactly as in the email and that you’re signed in with the Microsoft account you want Office on.
• Anything else: contact us within 15 days of your order, on live chat or at support@cheapkeys.io. We’ll fix it or replace the key, and if no working solution is possible, you get a refund under our refund policy.
