Change debit order date

Question

How do I change my debit order date from 12th to 1st of each month.

Answer 1

Hi, I'm John!

Are you using a personal Microsoft 365 subscription or business?

For Microsoft 365, the billing (debit order) date usually can’t be manually changed to a specific day like the 1st. It’s tied to your subscription start date.

What you can do instead is:

• Turn off recurring billing
• Wait for the current subscription to expire
• Then renew it on the date you prefer (like the 1st)

That will reset your future billing date.

I really hope this information is helpful! Let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.

Answer 2

To change the date your Microsoft 365 subscription is charged (for example, from the 12th to the 1st), update the payment method details on the Microsoft account used for the subscription and then manage billing from there.

1. Go to the Microsoft account Payment options page: https://account.microsoft.com/billing/payments and sign in with the account used for the subscription.
2. Under Payment options, find the payment method used for the subscription and select View or edit card.
3. Update any necessary payment information (such as expiration date or other details) and select Save.

If the subscription is a pre-order or a similar Microsoft Store item, the billing behavior is controlled per order:

1. Go to https://account.microsoft.com/orders and sign in.
2. In Order history, select the subscription or pre-order.
3. Use Change how you pay to choose a different payment option if needed.

Note: The exact debit date is determined by the subscription’s billing cycle and Microsoft’s billing system. Updating the payment method ensures successful charges, but it does not guarantee moving the charge to a specific calendar day unless Microsoft’s billing system for that subscription supports changing the billing cycle date directly. If the debit date does not change as desired, contact Microsoft Support via the account/billing support options for assistance.
