Subscription
Is the 2018 Release of Quicken a subscription product?
Will the 2018 Release of Quicken convert my existing Quicken data?
Yes. The 2018 Release works just the same as previous Quicken products; after you install the 2018 Release on your computer, you'll be prompted to convert your existing Quicken file to the new version. If you already have a membership, you'll simply update to the latest releases through your product, no file conversion necessary.
What is the Quicken ID?
All Quicken products use the new Quicken ID. The Quicken ID is a new ID you'll use to access all Quicken applications, including Quicken for Windows, Quicken for Mac, Quicken Mobile, and Quicken.com. If you don't already have a Quicken ID, you'll be prompted to create one when you install and open Quicken. You can still use Quicken manually if you prefer, however, you will need to go online to register your Quicken ID at least once.
What happens to my data if my subscription is cancelled or expires?
The Quicken Data Access Guarantee means that whether you renew your subscription or not, you'll always have full access to and ownership of your data. You can view, edit, export, and manually enter transactions and accounts for Deluxe and higher versions, even after your subscription ends*. Access to online services, such as transaction download, quotes, and mobile sync, along with access to Quicken Support, will end if your subscription does. We’ll continue to let you know about product changes and enhancements within the Quicken product.
Please note that the Quicken Data Access Guarantee is subject to all limitations and conditions outlined in the Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.
