Pricing and Payment FAQs
Can I get a refund if I am not totally satisfied?
We are committed to our clients’ satisfaction and therefore offer a generous 30-day return policy. If you are not 100% satisfied with your purchase, we will be happy to provide a full refund of the purchase price.
For more details, see our refund policy.
How do I renew or add additional devices to my licence?
You can renew, enlarge or upgrade your licence at any time. This keeps your product up to date, maintains your uninterrupted protection, and ensures you have free access to our technical support as well as loyalty benefits.
- Start by logging into your account using your license key (XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX) or public licence ID.
- To renew your licence, select the “Extend” option and adjust the period or number of devices you’d like to cover. Your renewal price will be pro-rated based volume discounts.
- If you want to add additional devices keeping the original expiration date, select “Enlarge” and adjust number of devices you’d like to cover. We’ll match the expiry date and calculate the pro-rated price for your extra devices.
If these options are not present in your account, it’s likely that your licence has already expired. If this is the case, we recommend purchasing a new licence.
If you are not sure how to renew or enlarge your licence, please contact us for more support.
What is automatic renewal?
ESET auto-renew ensures that your ESET licences and products are always up to date, providing continuous, year-round protection. We handle the billing and renewal for you using auto-renew, and you’ll be entitled to special renewal pricing.
By enabling auto-renew, you agree that at the end of your licence period, we will automatically renew your licence using the payment details currently on file. For more details, see our auto-renewal policy.
We will inform you about upcoming auto-renewal and renewal prices 30 days before your renewal date (for annual subscriptions) and after your subscription automatically renews, we will email you the transaction details.
How do I cancel my subscription?
Auto-renew is continuous, unless you turn it off after your purchase, via your account. Turning off auto-renew will not cancel your licence – your ESET protection will continue until your licence expires. We will notify you before licence expiration so that you may renew manually.
You may cancel automatic renewal at any time.
- Start by logging into your account using your licence key (XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX) or public licence ID.
- Proceed to the Licence Management page, where you may use the “Auto-Renew” slider to cancel the renewal of your subscription.
- Confirm your selection to renew manually.
