How to activate your Norton licence key
Norton keys are redeemed in a Norton account. Once redeemed, the subscription is attached to that account and you install Norton on each device from there.
Before you start
- Uninstall any other antivirus program first – two real-time scanners on one device can conflict.
- Have your 25-character key from your order email or your account ready.
- Make sure the key's region matches where your Norton account is registered (US, EU, UK or Global).
- 1
Open the Norton setup page
In your browser go to the official Norton setup page (norton.com/setup) and choose “Enter a product key”.
- 2
Sign in or create an account
Sign in with your existing Norton account, or create a free one. The subscription will be linked to this account.
- 3
Enter your key
Type or paste your product key exactly as shown, including dashes, and confirm.
- 4
Download and install
Click “Agree & Download” and run the installer on this device. Repeat from “Install on another device” in your Norton account for each additional device covered by your plan.
- 5
Check your subscription
Open Norton → My Norton → Subscription to confirm the remaining days and number of devices.
Troubleshooting
“This key is not valid”
Check for confusion between O/0 and I/1 and that you copied the whole key. Then confirm the key's region matches your account country. If it still fails, contact us – do not try the key repeatedly.
I already have an active Norton subscription
Entering a new key on the same account normally extends the existing subscription by the new term.
Auto-renewal
Norton may switch on automatic renewal in your account. You can turn it off under My Norton → My Subscriptions.
