FOR MAC ONLY. This license installs on macOS and will not activate on a Windows PC.
Stop renting your software. One payment gets you Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and OneNote on your Mac permanently, with no monthly bill, no renewal date and no price increase waiting for you next year. Most people who buy this license have already paid more in subscription fees than this costs.
This is the full retail version licensed for one Mac, and it includes commercial use rights, so you can invoice clients, run your books and build client decks without a licensing question hanging over you. Freelancers, consultants and small business owners choose this edition for exactly that reason.

Here is the fast compatibility check. If your Mac is running macOS Sonoma 14, macOS Sequoia 15 or macOS Tahoe 26, you are good to go. Microsoft supports Office 2021 for Mac on the three most recent versions of macOS, and as Apple releases a new version each fall, that window moves forward with it. If you are on something older than Sonoma, update macOS first and everything will install cleanly.
Supported macOS versions:
macOS Tahoe 26 macOS Sequoia 15 macOS Sonoma 14
Supported processors:
Apple Silicon M1, M2, M3 and M4, including Pro, Max and Ultra variants. Office 2021 runs natively, with no Rosetta translation and no performance penalty. Intel Core i5, i7 and i9, and Intel Xeon W in iMac Pro and Mac Pro.
Supported Mac models. If your machine can run macOS Sonoma or newer, this license will work on it:
MacBook Air, 2018 and newer, including every M1, M2, M3 and M4 model MacBook Pro, 2018 and newer, including every 13 inch, 14 inch and 16 inch Apple Silicon model iMac, 2019 and newer, including the 24 inch M1, M3 and M4 models iMac Pro, 2017 Mac mini, 2018 and newer, including M1, M2 and M4 models Mac Studio, every model from 2022 forward Mac Pro, 2019 and newer
Hardware minimums:
4 GB of RAM, 8 GB or more recommended 10 GB of available disk space 1280 x 800 screen resolution or higher Internet connection for the download and one time activation

Is this really a one time purchase? Yes. You pay once and the license is yours. There is no renewal date, no auto charge and no expiration.
How many Macs can I install this on? One Mac. Each license activates a single machine.
Which apps do I actually get? Five of them. Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and OneNote, all full desktop versions installed directly on your Mac.
Is OneNote really included, or is that the free version? OneNote 2021 is part of the Home and Business 2021 suite and installs alongside Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook. Your notebooks sync through your Microsoft account, so notes you take on your Mac show up on your iPhone and iPad.
Will it work on my M series Mac? Yes. Office 2021 is a universal application that runs natively on M1, M2, M3 and M4 Macs, and on Intel Macs as well.
My Mac is a few years old. Will it still work? If it runs macOS Sonoma 14 or newer, yes. That covers MacBook Air and MacBook Pro models from 2018 forward, iMac from 2019 forward, Mac mini from 2018 forward, iMac Pro 2017, Mac Pro from 2019 forward and every Mac Studio.
Can I use this for my business? Yes. Commercial use rights are included, which is the main difference between this edition and Home and Student.
Does this include Access or Publisher? No. Those are Windows only applications and are not part of any Mac version of Office.
How quickly will I get my key? Within minutes. Delivery is digital and automatic, day or night.
What if I get a new Mac later? This is a full retail license, so it can be moved to a replacement Mac. Contact our support team and we will walk you through the transfer.
What if it does not activate? Open Excel, hover over Excel in the top left menu, choose About Microsoft Excel, select More Info, then Refresh License and sign in with the Microsoft account your key is registered to. Close and reopen Excel. If you are still stuck, message our U.S. based support team and we will handle it with you.
