Subscriptions Overview

Overview

We recommend reviewing the service bundle changes to our Antivirus options that are fully available as of February 2022. See New Avast Business Solutions.

Services activated in the Business Hub will be attached to a Wallet Key. Purchases via the sales team will give either a Wallet Key or activation code, which must then be activated in the Hub.

Subscriptions have been upgraded in the Business Hub to make things simpler for our partners and customers.

Subscription types

Prepaid

Prepaid subscriptions cover a certain number of devices ("seats") you can activate for a set amount of time, such as one year or three years. When this subscription expires, the services on the devices will be turned off until you renew.

Buying and activating subscriptions

Prepaid

This is the process for purchasing subscriptions within the Hub. If you purchase a subscription through the Avast Business website or elsewhere, you should get an activation code you can input into the Hub.

1. Navigate to the Subscriptions page
2. Do one of the following:
   • If you have an activation code, click Enter activation code, enter the code, then click Activate
   • Beside the subscription you would like to purchase, click Buy now, then complete the transaction

Managing subscriptions

Prepaid

Subscriptions are easy to manage within the Hub. You can buy, renew, start a trial, and change the number of seats you can license from the Subscriptions tab on the Account page. For more information on managing subscriptions, see Viewing and Altering Licenses.

Subscription assignment to devices

Subscriptions are automatically assigned to devices when you select services for installation. However, you can manually change the selected subscription using the process in Applying Licenses to Devices.

Expiration

What happens when a subscription expires depends on what else is available.

• No other subscriptions: Service is stopped
• Another prepaid subscription: Devices are moved to the non-expired prepaid subscription
