Business Standard price at a glance

These monthly figures are equivalents of a full year paid upfront. Your quote confirms the exact product, term, total and VAT before you commit.

What Business Standard includes

Business Standard combines desktop Office apps with business email and cloud collaboration. The plan with Teams includes:

  • Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook for PC and Mac, plus web and mobile apps
  • Exchange business email on your domain
  • Teams chat and meetings
  • OneDrive storage and SharePoint collaboration

Plans with and without Teams are distinct variants. We match the exact variant in your quote. See Microsoft's current Business plan comparison.

Business Premium adds Defender for Business, Intune and conditional access. Those capabilities need configuration and suitable licences for the people using them. Read our Standard versus Premium guide if you are weighing the extra cost.

Choose the commitment and billing frequency

We offer annual commitment paid upfront or monthly commitment paid monthly, where available. Annual upfront is one payment for the full year. Monthly flexible has a one-month commitment, with its own price and renewal terms. Cancellation, seat reductions and upgrades depend on the exact subscription and eligible change window. Confirm the terms before ordering.

For a stable seat count, compare the full annual cost. For uncertain staffing, ask about the available shorter commitment and its price. Do not confuse monthly invoicing with monthly cancellation.

For CSP NCE per-user subscriptions, Microsoft generally permits cancellation with a prorated refund during the seven calendar days after purchase or renewal. Partial upgrades can inherit an existing window, and a supplier transfer does not necessarily create a new one. We confirm the actual subscription deadline before acting. See Microsoft's NCE cancellation policy.

Understand the next renewal

The price agreed for your committed term is separate from the next renewal price. Future rates can change with the supplier offer, currency, promotions and our commercial pricing. We confirm the applicable rate before a new commitment; today's comparison is not a guarantee of future savings.

Compare your existing provider's written renewal quote with our current catalogue. Separate licence charges from hosting, support and other add-ons; an old introductory rate is not a reliable comparison.

Your own tenant and a confirmed licence order

Licences are supplied into your business's Microsoft tenant. Existing tenant supply can avoid a data migration, but we check the actual subscriptions and any provider handover before confirming the work.

Common questions.

How much is Microsoft 365 Business Standard per user per month in the UK?

Our current annual upfront rate is £9.94 per user per month ex VAT, compared with the catalogue Microsoft list price of £10.80. The annual total for one seat is £119.28 ex VAT. Other billing options need their own quote.

Why can a reseller price differ from Microsoft direct?

Resellers set their own selling prices within the partner channel. The exact Microsoft product determines the features; the price, payment terms and support can differ. Compare the same variant and any eligible promotion rather than assuming a reseller is always cheaper.

Will my price change at renewal?

The price agreed for your committed term is separate from the next renewal price. Future rates can change with the supplier offer, currency, promotions and our commercial pricing. We confirm the applicable rate before a new commitment; today's comparison is not a guarantee of future savings.

What is the difference between Business Standard and Business Premium?

Standard supplies productivity apps, email and collaboration. Premium adds device management, endpoint protection and conditional access. Choose against your users' needs and existing security arrangements. Buying Premium does not automatically configure its security capabilities.

Can I reduce my number of seats during the year?

Seat reductions depend on the subscription's eligible change window and renewal date. Our annual commitment is paid upfront and remains a commitment for the full term. We confirm the applicable rules and any proposed upgrade before ordering.

Can I request licences without connecting my tenant?

Yes. Send the product, quantities, renewal date and preferred commitment and billing frequency for a licence-only quote. A tenant licence-count review and any managed IT service are optional.
