I want to pay early for my renewal

Question

I have Quicken classic that has a renewal date of May 2026.  I want to use an AMEX rebate and need to pay prior to March 31.  I do not see anything on my subscription page that lets me do that.  Can I get detailed instructions on how to pay?  Thanks

I just realized that we didn't really answer the question about how to buy it on Quicken.com.   I think the easiest way to buy it is to go to

https://www.quicken.com/products/pricing-comparison-classic/

, select the Quicken Classic edition you want by clicking on the appropriate "Get Started" button below the products features matrix.  You will then be prompted to log into your Quicken.com account where you will then be able to complete the purchase.

Staples has both, Deluxe and Premier on sale right now. This is an example of what to get on the left, and what to avoid on the right (the one with the black box since it says for new subscribers only)

Adding on to @NotACPA's post:

* You can enter the activation code to extend a current subscription as early as 6 months prior to the expiration date of the current subscription.
* Activation codes, if not used, now expire after 12 months. 
* IMPORTANT:  When shopping online for subscription deals, make sure that you do not buy a subscription that is identified in the product description or on the pictured box as being for "New Subcribers" because the code for that cannot be used to extend a subscription or to resubscribe.
* Some of the retailers that tend to have occasional sales that can often beat what Quicken.com offers include:  NewEgg.com, OfficeDepot.com, Staples.com, Sams.com (I think Sam's has a good sale going on this month), BestBuy.com and Walmart.com.  Ebay also can have some great deals but you need to be careful to confirm that what the seller is selling is a current subscription product.
