XLSTAT licenses are valid for 12 months. Once expired, Academic and Company licenses ordered via our website and paid for by credit card, will renew automatically.

Student licenses and all other licenses paid for by wire transfer must be renewed online or by contacting our sales team.

Automatic renewals are applied to all orders placed online.  License owners will receive an email notification from us before their license is set to expire asking them to confirm or decline the automatic renewal of their license. If they do not answer, the license will be renewed automatically, and the related credit card charged accordingly.

The automatic renewal is only available for company/private and academic licenses. If you are a student and wish to renew your license, you will need to order a new one.

If you do not want the automatic renewal option to apply to your license, please contact our sales team to opt-out of the program. We will then cancel your auto-renewal and your credit card will not be charged other than for the initial amount of your purchase.

Because perpetual licenses have been discontinued since August 2019, we no longer offer maintenance or updates for these licenses. If you own a perpetual license, please contact our sales team so that we can offer you a licensing alternative.

To find out when your license will expire, please log in to your MyXLSTAT account. You can also view your license's expiration date by going to the XLSTAT menu and selecting "About XLSTAT" where the properties of your license will appear.

You may have switched to our limited free version. This can be because:

• Your license key has expired. You can check your license's expiration date on your invoice or in your MyXLSTAT account. Find out how to access MyXLSTAT or renew your license key to keep on using XLSTAT.
