What's included with your purchase
When you purchase the Microsoft 365 Business Premium 36-month subscription from Lizensa, you are acquiring a genuine, digitally delivered annual subscription license for a 36-month term. This is not a perpetual license; it is a subscription that remains active for the full three-year period from the date of activation. Your purchase includes a digital license key and clear, step-by-step activation instructions, delivered securely via email and accessible in your Lizensa customer account.
This license is designed for activation on a new or existing Microsoft 365 commercial tenant. You will need administrative privileges to apply the subscription to your organisation's account. The license supports up to 300 users, making it perfectly scalable for small and medium-sized businesses. After activation, you can immediately download and deploy the Office applications and configure security settings across your organisation. A full VAT invoice is provided with every order, suitable for both B2C and B2B accounting, with reverse-charge mechanisms available for qualifying EU businesses.
Office versions compared — which one should you buy?
Choosing the right Microsoft 365 plan is crucial for aligning cost with capability. Here is how Microsoft 365 Business Premium compares to other common options, helping you make an informed decision for your organisation.
Microsoft 365 Business Premium vs. Microsoft 365 Business Standard: Business Standard includes the full desktop Office apps, Teams, and core services like Exchange and SharePoint. Business Premium adds the entire security and device management stack: Microsoft Defender for Office 365, Intune device management, and Azure Information Protection. If you handle sensitive data, need to manage company devices, or have compliance obligations, the upgrade to Business Premium is essential.
Microsoft 365 Business Premium vs. Microsoft 365 Apps for Business: Apps for Business provides only the desktop Office applications and 1 TB of OneDrive storage. It lacks business email (Exchange), Teams for collaboration, SharePoint, and all security and management features. This plan is suitable only for a single user who needs the core Office apps and cloud storage, not for a collaborative team or a business requiring data protection.
Microsoft 365 Business Premium vs. Office Professional 2021 (one-time purchase): A one-time purchase like Office 2021 gives you a fixed version of the desktop apps for one PC or Mac, with no cloud services, no email, and no security features. It never receives feature updates. Microsoft 365 Business Premium is a subscription that provides always-up-to-date apps across multiple devices, plus a full suite of cloud-based communication, collaboration, and advanced security tools. For any modern business, the subscription model offers far greater value and capability.
This edition is best for established SMBs, professional services (legal, accounting, healthcare), and any organisation with a hybrid or remote workforce that requires a predictable, long-term IT solution with enterprise-grade security and compliance features.
System requirements / compatibility
Microsoft 365 Business Premium is a cloud-first platform designed to work across a wide range of modern devices. The core services are accessible via a web browser, while the full desktop applications have the following minimum requirements.
Operating System: The desktop Office apps are fully supported on Windows 11, Windows 10, and the three most recent versions of macOS. For the best experience, ensure your operating system is up to date.
Processor and RAM: A 1.6 GHz or faster, 2-core processor is required. Microsoft recommends 4 GB of RAM for 32-bit systems and 8 GB for 64-bit systems to ensure smooth multitasking and performance.
Storage: A minimum of 4 GB of available disk space is required for installation on both Windows and macOS.
Architecture: The suite supports both 32-bit and 64-bit installations where the product edition and operating system allow. The 64-bit version is recommended for handling large datasets in Excel and complex documents.
Internet Connectivity: An active internet connection is required for license activation, software updates, and access to all cloud-based services like Exchange Online, Teams, and SharePoint. Periodic re-activation checks are performed online.
Language Support: This license supports installation and use in English, German, French, Dutch, and Polish. Users can select their preferred language during deployment.
Please note that exact requirements can vary slightly by vendor and specific feature update. We recommend validating these specifications against the official Microsoft documentation before activating your product, particularly for specialised hardware or managed IT environments.
Installation and activation
Getting started with your new Microsoft 365 Business Premium subscription is a straightforward process managed by your IT administrator. After completing your purchase on Lizensa, you will receive a confirmation email containing your digital license key and a link to detailed activation instructions. This information is also permanently stored in your Lizensa customer account for easy retrieval.
The activation process involves signing into your organisation's Microsoft 365 admin centre with a Global Admin account. From there, you will navigate to the billing section, redeem the provided license key, and assign the new Business Premium licenses to your users. Once assigned, users can immediately install the Office desktop apps from the portal and begin using their new tools. There is no physical media to ship; everything is downloaded directly from Microsoft's official servers.
Should you encounter any difficulties during activation, Lizensa provides free multilingual technical support. Our team can assist with troubleshooting activation errors and guide you through the tenant setup process. As this is a subscription license, you can reinstall the Office applications on a user's allowed devices at any time during the active subscription term, simply by having the user sign in to their account on the new device.

How does this differ from a Microsoft 365 E3 license?
Microsoft 365 Business Premium is designed for SMBs with up to 300 users and includes the full productivity, security, and management stack in one simple package. Microsoft 365 E3 is an enterprise plan for larger organisations with unlimited users, offering more advanced compliance features like information governance and the option for a 64 GB mailbox. For most SMBs, Business Premium provides the ideal feature set without the complexity of enterprise licensing.
Can I use this license for a home office or personal device?
Yes. The license terms allow for use on both company-owned and personal devices, which is a core part of the BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) management capabilities included with Intune. This makes it perfect for hybrid and remote workers.
Do I need an existing Microsoft 365 tenant to use this?
Yes, this license must be activated on a Microsoft 365 commercial tenant. If you don't have one, you can easily create a new tenant for free during the activation process. You will need a Global Admin account to redeem the license key.
