Microsoft Office 2024 Home and Business
Microsoft Office 2024 Home and Business is a perpetual-licence bundle of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook 2024 — the classic Office apps, one payment, no subscription. Available for Windows or Mac.
What's included
- Word 2024 — document editing with refreshed UI, improved accessibility tools, and faster performance on large documents.
- Excel 2024 — spreadsheets with the new IMAGE function, improved Power Query performance, and updated chart types.
- PowerPoint 2024 — presentations with improved Cameo, refreshed templates, and accessibility checker improvements.
- Outlook 2024 — email and calendar with refined search, modernised look, and improved performance.
Microsoft Teams is available as a free separate download on both platforms. Microsoft Copilot is part of Microsoft 365 subscriptions and is not included with this perpetual licence.
Windows or Mac — choose at checkout
Office 2024 Home and Business is sold as two platform-specific versions. Select "Windows" or "Mac" above before adding to cart. The product key you receive is platform-locked:
- Windows edition — for 1 Windows 10 or Windows 11 PC. Bound to your Microsoft account; transferable to a new Windows PC by removing the licence from the old device first.
- Mac edition — for 1 Mac running one of the three most recent versions of macOS. Runs natively on Intel and Apple silicon. Bound to your Microsoft account; transferable to a new Mac the same way.
Core Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook functionality works the same on both platforms. Some features differ — handwriting input and a few productivity add-ins are Windows-only. See the Requirements tab for full system specifications for each platform.
What's new vs Office 2021
- Excel: new IMAGE function, improved Power Query performance, updated chart types.
- PowerPoint: improved Cameo (camera in slides), refreshed templates, better accessibility checker.
- Outlook: refined search, modernised interface, improved performance on large mailboxes.
- Word: faster performance on large documents, refreshed UI, improved accessibility tools.
- Cross-app: refreshed icons and visual style across the suite.
Frequently asked questions
Is this a subscription or a one-time purchase?
One-time purchase. You pay once and keep the software — no monthly or annual fees. You'll receive security updates during Microsoft's support window, but not new features.
Can I install this on both my PC and my Mac?
No. Each key is platform-locked — Windows keys activate on Windows only, Mac keys activate on Mac only. Select your platform above before adding to cart.
Can I transfer my licence to a new computer later?
Yes, within the same platform. The licence is bound to your Microsoft account — sign in to your account, remove the old device, then activate Office on the new one. You cannot transfer between Windows and Mac.
Which macOS versions are supported?
Microsoft supports Office 2024 for Mac on the three most recent versions of macOS. As new macOS releases come out, the oldest supported version is retired — see the Requirements tab for the current list.
Should I buy this or Microsoft 365 instead?
Buy Office 2024 Home and Business if you want a one-time purchase and don't need ongoing feature updates or Copilot. Choose Microsoft 365 if you want always-current apps, OneDrive cloud storage, and Copilot AI features across multiple devices.
What if my key doesn't activate?
Contact Licendi support (email or live chat) with your order number and we'll work on a solution.

About Office 2024 Home and Business

It includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook 2024.
