Frequently asked questions

How do I renew my subscription if my subscription has already expired?

Subscriptions that have expired cannot be reactivated or restarted. To use the software, simply purchase a new subscription. In many cases, you can view your purchase options for a new subscription by launching your expired software. Alternatively, you can purchase a new subscription directly from Autodesk or from an Autodesk Partner.

Will I keep my special renewal pricing if I change my term length?

Yes! If you change from one term length to another, you’ll still enjoy the benefit of special renewal pricing1 if you renew before your subscription expires. You’ll save if you stay on continuous subscription instead of letting a subscription expire and buying new. And you’ll keep that savings even if you select a new term in Autodesk Account.

 

How do I renew my subscription if I purchased online?

Your subscription will automatically renew if auto-renew is on. Simply sign in to your Autodesk Account and select the product you want to renew. Verify that auto-renew is on and your payment method is correct.

Why don’t I see the “add a seat” option in Autodesk Account?

This feature is not available in all regions2 and is only available for certain subscriptions enabled with automatic renewal. If the Add Seats option doesn’t appear in your account, your subscription may not be eligible for self-service seat management.

Yes, you can add seats to your eligible subscription at any time. The cost of the seat will be prorated based on the time remaining on your existing subscription. All seats will renew at the next subscription renewal date.
