Office 2024 Professional Plus and the other Office 2024 editions

Office 2024 is the current perpetual release of Microsoft Office, and this category holds every Office 2024 license we sell: Professional Plus, Standard LTSC, Home and Business for PC or Mac, and two bundles that pair Office 2024 Pro Plus with Windows 11 Pro or with Visio 2024 and Project 2024. All of them are one-time purchases. There is no subscription to renew and no account that switches the apps off when a payment is missed. If you have been comparing a Microsoft Office 2024 license against a Microsoft 365 plan and want to own the software outright, this is the version to buy.

Microsoft supports Office LTSC 2024, which is the family that Office 2024 Professional Plus and Standard belong to, until October 9, 2029. That is the longest security update window of any perpetual Office you can buy today, and it is the main reason we recommend Office 2024 over Office 2021 for a computer you intend to keep for several years. The apps are the same familiar Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook, with the performance and accessibility improvements Microsoft added since 2021, including newer Excel functions and the updated Outlook experience.

What is included in each Office 2024 edition

The 2024 lineup made one notable change: Publisher was discontinued and does not ship in any Office 2024 edition. If Publisher is essential to your work, look at Office 2021 instead. Everything else is present, and the table shows how the editions differ.

Pro Plus versus Standard versus Home and Business

Office 2024 Pro Plus is the complete Windows suite and the only 2024 edition with Access. Office 2024 Standard is the LTSC edition without Access, aimed at organizations that standardize on Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook. Microsoft Office Home and Business 2024 is the edition for a single person who wants Outlook alongside the core apps and is the only one of the three sold for Mac. All three are perpetual, all three receive security updates on the same schedule, and none of them include the cloud features that are exclusive to Microsoft 365, such as Copilot or one terabyte of OneDrive storage.

Which Office 2024 edition should I choose?

Match the edition to the apps you open and the computers you own. These are the products in this category and who each one suits.

If you only need a single application, we also sell Word 2024, Excel 2024, Outlook 2024, Access 2024, Visio 2024 and Project 2024 as standalone perpetual licenses in our Office apps category.

System requirements for Office 2024

Office 2024 for Windows requires Windows 10 or Windows 11, a 1.6 GHz dual-core processor, 4 GB of RAM and about 4 GB of free disk space, with a 1280 by 768 display. Since Microsoft ended Windows 10 support on October 14, 2025, a Windows 11 PC is the sensible long-term home for an Office 2024 license, and Windows 11 itself needs TPM 2.0, UEFI Secure Boot, 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage. Office 2024 Home and Business for Mac runs on the macOS versions Microsoft currently supports, which are typically the three most recent releases, and the product page states the current requirement. An internet connection is needed for installation and activation.

How activation and delivery work

Buying Office 2024 from us is a digital process from start to finish.

  1. Choose the edition and pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. Checkout is encrypted and PCI-compliant, and we never see your card number.
  2. Within minutes of payment, 7 days a week, we email you the 25-character product key, the official Microsoft download link for your edition, and a short installation guide. The key is also stored under My Account.
  3. Download the installer from Microsoft, run it, and enter your key. For Home and Business, setup asks you to sign in with a Microsoft account so the license is attached to that account, which makes later reinstalls simple. Pro Plus and Standard LTSC activate directly with the key.
  4. Open Word or Excel and check File, then Account. When it shows Product Activated with your edition name, you are done.
  5. If Microsoft requests phone activation, send us the Installation ID and our team returns the Confirmation ID by email. If activation fails and we cannot resolve it, our 30-day money-back guarantee gives you a replacement key or a full refund.

Retail, OEM or volume: read the license type before you buy

Every Office 2024 product page states whether the key is retail, OEM or volume. A retail key can be moved to a new PC after you uninstall it from the old one. An OEM key is bound to the first computer it activates on. A volume key, also called a MAK key, has a limited number of activations and is intended for organizations. For a personal computer you expect to replace before 2029, retail is the type to look for. For a workstation that will not change hands, OEM or volume is fine and often what a business wants. Whatever the type, the license is perpetual, the installer comes from Microsoft and the apps are genuine.

Office 2024 or Office 2021?

The two suites look and behave very similarly. The differences that matter are support dates and Publisher. Office 2024 is supported until October 9, 2029, while Office 2021 mainstream support ends October 13, 2026. Office 2021 Professional Plus includes Publisher; Office 2024 does not. Office 2024 also adds newer Excel functions and the refreshed Outlook. If you buy a Microsoft Office 2024 professional plus license today you get roughly three extra years of security updates for a modest difference, so unless you need Publisher, 2024 is the better long-term buy.

Frequently asked questions about Office 2024

Is Office 2024 a one-time purchase or a subscription?

Every Office 2024 license in this category is a one-time purchase. You buy the key once, activate it on one computer, and the applications keep working for as long as that computer does, with security updates from Microsoft until October 9, 2029. Nothing renews and nothing expires. This is the main difference from Microsoft 365, which is billed monthly or yearly and stops working when the subscription lapses. If you want to own Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook outright, a perpetual Office 2024 key is the way to do it.

Does Office 2024 Professional Plus include Publisher?

No. Microsoft discontinued Publisher with the 2024 release, so Office 2024 Professional Plus ships with Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, OneNote and Access, but no Publisher. If you produce newsletters, flyers or booklets in Publisher and want to keep doing so, choose Office 2021 Professional Plus, which still includes it and is supported by Microsoft through October 13, 2026. Existing Publisher files can also be opened in Word or exported to PDF if you decide to move to Office 2024 later.

Can I install Office 2024 Home and Business on both a PC and a Mac?

The license covers one device, either a PC or a Mac, not both at once. When you activate, you choose which platform to install on and download the matching installer from Microsoft. If you later replace a Windows PC with a Mac, a retail Home and Business license can be moved by removing it from the old device and signing in with the same Microsoft account on the new one. The product page states the license type so you know before buying whether that transfer is possible.

What is the difference between Office 2024 Standard and Professional Plus?

Access is the difference. Office 2024 Standard LTSC includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and OneNote, while Office 2024 Professional Plus adds Access, the desktop database application. Both are LTSC builds with identical support dates, identical Windows requirements and the same activation process. Choose Standard for a workstation that will never open a database file, and choose Pro Plus if Access is in use or might be. Neither edition includes Publisher, because it was discontinued in the 2024 release.

Will Office 2024 run on Windows 10?

Yes, Office 2024 installs and activates on Windows 10 as well as Windows 11. Keep in mind that Microsoft ended Windows 10 support on October 14, 2025, so the operating system underneath no longer receives security patches even though Office does. For that reason we suggest moving to Windows 11 if the hardware supports it, and our Office 2024 Pro Plus plus Windows 11 Pro bundle exists to make that a single order. If the PC cannot run Windows 11, Office 2024 on Windows 10 still works normally.
