QuickBooks Desktop for Mac 2022 - no subscription option?

You can still purchase QBD 2021 Mac with the one time license. I am not sure they will offer the same option for QBD 2022 Mac for this time.

Hello there, @busted.

Intuit aims to provide better features to help customers efficiently run and manage their businesses by using our simple tools. Currently, we only have a QuickBooks Mac Plus 2022. With QuickBooks for Mac 2022, users will be able to easily access the latest version, with our newest features and security patches, organize their business finances all in one place, etc...

Just like what Fiat Lux - ASIA said, you can purchase QuickBooks Mac 2021 with a one-time license. You can check this link to compare the plans and pricing: QuickBooks for Mac Plans and Pricing.

Please know that you can always get back to us if you have other questions. I'm always here to help. Take care.

I wish I was wrong but I cannot accept the answer because I was told by Sales on a call today, that as of December, 10, 2021 the upgrade and/or purchase of Desktop for Mac 2021 is NOT AVAILABLE.

I encourage ALL QuickBooks for Mac Desktop users to promptly call Sales and voice strongly there interest in a non-subscription QuickBooks for Mac Desktop. The product DOES exist but WE don't want to pay for unlimited customer service and unlimited updates. We just want to buy a license, use the software...we are simply and don't like subscription models for software.
