Compare antivirus licences for your devices

Before you choose a licence

Choose antivirus software by the devices you need to protect and the functions included in the exact product tier. ESET HOME Security Essential and Premium are different packages; the same principle applies to the named tiers from Kaspersky, Bitdefender and Norton. A brand name alone does not establish which protections, extra tools or platforms a licence covers. Compare the product details for your computers and phones, particularly when a household uses several operating systems.

Device count and subscription duration are separate choices. A longer term does not add more protected devices, and a multiple-device licence should not be assumed to support every platform. Check whether the offer is a new subscription or a renewal and whether it can extend your existing protection. Redeem through the vendor's prescribed application or account using the instructions supplied for that product. Before replacing an installed security suite, review the vendor's migration guidance and confirm the activation region for your selected variant.

Delivery is digital. After payment, an email link takes you to the protected order page, where the key can be revealed when fulfilment is complete; the key is not sent in plaintext email. Read the selected product's availability and delivery information before paying. Keep the order reference and follow the supplied activation instructions for your chosen variant.

The store's refund policy allows a full refund within 14 days of purchase while a key remains unrevealed. Revealing it ends the change-of-mind withdrawal right described in that policy. Defective keys are handled separately: contact support with the order number and activation error for assistance or a replacement; if a working key cannot be provided, the policy provides a full refund.
