QB 2021 Desktop Subscription

Hello everyone!

 

We purchased QB Desktop 2021 through Amazon, details are below:

QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise Gold 2021 Accounting Software for Business - 5 Use

 

It was never mentioned, that it is a subscription. But suddenly, we no longer able to access QB, the error says that subscription has expired and we need to renew our billing information online. But we never had any online account for QB

 

What should we do?

Hello, fgasimzade2.

 

I'm here to lay down some details to help you with the QuickBooks Desktop copy you purchased from Amazon. 

 

Resellers may offer subscription-based or one-time licenses for QuickBooks Desktop. Did you recently purchase the program? If that's the case, we'll want to reach out to Amazon's support regarding the details of the license, and see if they can replace it. We can also ask them about the account details if any. 

 

However if Amazon is unable to check the license details, we'll want to contact our support. One of our support agents will be able to help you with the license details and ensure you'll be able to use the program again. 

 

Here's how to reach them:

 

  1. Go to our out-of-product support link
  2. Set QuickBooks Enterprise as the product, then proceed with Continue.
  3. When asked, we can enter something like "QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise from Amazon suddenly expired" or similar. 
  4. Hit Continue, then choose how you want to reach us. 

 

I'll also add that our agents can also help you with the renewal if license is already expired. 

 

After accessing the program successfully, do you need help in reviewing your financials and other entries? Check out this article series to help you utilize the Reports feature well: Understand reports

 

You're more than welcome to post here again if you have questions about QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise. I'm here to help.

Thank you James,

 

I contacted support through chat and I was told that I just need to renew

I thought it as a one-time payment when I bought it through Amazon

@fgasimzade2 

You may have 2 options:

1. Purchase a new subscription license for QB Desktop 2023 to upgrade your version.

2. Purchase a one time license for QB Desktop 2021 Premier and downgrade your company file.

 

If you are not located in the US, you can purchase the license through a partner/reseller without a credit card.
