What is Price Protection?

Price Protection can only be used with Microsoft products. It ensures that the price of a subscription stays constant despite any changes in the price of the product. This also applies to changes in the subscription quantity, meaning that additional subscriptions will retain the price at which the first one was purchased.

Price Protection can be applied per currency and per billing cycle. This means that For example, a product can have a different protection term for a monthly subscription in USD, and an annual subscription in EUR.
