Microsoft has introduced a new license term for the Microsoft 365 Copilot Business SKU (Product ID CFQ7TTC0MM8R), enabling organizations to subscribe (or test) on a monthly basis rather than committing to a full year.
Previously, Microsoft 365 Copilot Business was available under the following terms:
- P1YY – Yearly payment with yearly commitment
- P1MY – Monthly payment with yearly commitment (5% surcharge for monthly billing)
On 1 March, Microsoft added a P1M term, which means a monthly payment with a monthly commitment, at a 20% surcharge compared to the P1YY price.
The Microsoft 365 Copilot Business SKU still does not offer a Trial term. Likewise, Microsoft 365 Copilot for Enterprise organizations does not include a P1M term.
