Minecraft for Education Licensing

Hi there! This is Ronnie, an independent advisor.

Nice to meet you and I hope you are having a great day!

I understand you need help on playing Minecraft education.

Just a heads up that one of the requirements for you to get the license for Minecraft education is to have a Microsoft 365. School account is only available when you are provided with one from either a camp or a school so you can play the Minecraft education game, that only happens when they have the license for it already.

You cannot get the license for the game without Microsoft 365 unfortunately.

Hi,Brendan Allen1

Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

Knowing that you are having trouble purchasing a Minecraft Education license in the Microsoft 365 admin center, you can refer to the following suggestions:

Visit the right page: make sure you navigate to the right page in the Microsoft 365 Admin Center. You can try visiting the Minecraft Education purchase page directly from Purchase Commercial Licenses – Minecraft Education .

Check permissions: Make sure you have the administrator permissions required to purchase a license. Only IT administrators or users with the appropriate permissions can make purchases in the Admin Center.

Search for Minecraft Education: Search for “Minecraft Education” using the search bar in the Microsoft 365 Admin Center. This can sometimes help locate the specific section where the license is purchased

If the problem persists, it may be related to browser caching or compatibility issues. Try using a different browser or clearing your current browser's cache and cookies, and revisit the Admin Center, taking care to keep your personal information private.

If none of these methods work, it is recommended that you contact Microsoft Education Support for guidance specific to your account.

Hello Dominic Luddy,



Greetings!



Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.



Based on the description, you are trying to cancel Minecraft Education that was tied up to your work account. Let us check and see on what we can do to help resolve your concern in a timely manner.

To cancel your previous subscription associated with your work account, you need to sign in to your Microsoft 365 account admin center page. Please note that only IT Admins have access to Admin Center so you'll need to reach out to your IT Admin for assistance with license management. If you are not sure which type of license you have or are an educator who purchased licenses in Store and no one in your school has access to Admin center, contact our support team where you can find in the link here: License Management Options for Minecraft Education – Minecraft Education



We thank you for sharing your concern to us and glad that we are able to provide information related to your concern.



Sincerely,

Thanks, well. As this is not happening only to you. Would be great to check with your school IT department if everything looks good from their side. And also ask them if they renewed their Minecraft education license.

If that's the case the next step will be reach Minecraft education edition support here:
