Hi @crunchymama,
With the subscription version your data will not be in the cloud, it will reside on your computer as it does now. There will be options to backup your data using Dropbox and if you decide to use the Mobile app - some information will be exchanged with the Cloud, but only for that connectivity.
You don't have to signup for Billpay, if you don't want that and there are no other "mandatory" requirements.
Let me know if you have any more questions.

And with the purchase from a third party, the subscription membership will only start when you enter the activation code in your Quicken.com account. So it is worth waiting as long as possible to extend the expiration date.

Thank you so much Frankx. I had asked Quicken support and they were unwilling to answer my question without me giving them all sorts of personal information which was very disappointing. I appreciate your help. I see you are a Quicken H&B 2017 user. Me too. Are you upgrading to the subscription?0

HI "@crunchymama",
Yes I am upgrading and I've already purchased the subscription H&B from Sam's Club. I just want to get my current file in a little better order (still have year-end reconciliations to complete & want to do tax export) before I switch.
