You can renew, enlarge or upgrade your subscription at any time.

Start by logging into your account using your licence/ activation key (XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX).

• To renew your subscription, select the “Extend” option and adjust the period or number of devices you’d like to cover.
• If you wish to add additional devices under the original expiration date, select “Enlarge” and adjust the 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 subscription has already expired. If this is the case, we recommend purchasing a new subscription.

If you are not sure how to renew or enlarge your subscription , please contact us for more support. 

By enabling automatic renewal, 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.

Automatic renewal is continuous, unless you turn it off after your purchase, via your account. Turning off automatic renewal 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.
