GoLicenses offers licenses for the most trusted antivirus and anti-malware software: Bitdefender, ESET, Kaspersky, Norton, Avast, AVG, McAfee, Panda, Malwarebytes, Webroot and Watchdog. Every license is digital. Once your payment is complete, the activation key is sent to your email, with no shipping, no packaging and no waiting.

How to choose the right antivirus

Three questions are enough to find the license that fits you:

• How many devices do you want to protect? Licenses usually cover 1, 3, 5 or 10 devices. A household with one computer, two phones and a tablet needs a license for at least 4 devices.
• Which operating systems do you use? Most suites cover Windows, macOS, Android and iOS with a single key. Some editions are Windows only, and this is stated on every product page.
• For how long? Licenses usually last 1 or 2 years. A two-year license almost always costs less per year.

The three levels of protection

Most vendors split their products into three tiers:

• Antivirus: core protection against viruses, ransomware, spyware and dangerous websites. Enough for anyone who wants simple, lightweight protection.
• Internet Security: adds a firewall, safe online payments, webcam protection and parental controls. The most balanced choice for most homes.
• Total Security, Premium or 360: the complete suite, usually including a VPN, a password manager, optimisation tools and identity protection.

The brands you will find

• Bitdefender: consistently near the top of independent detection tests, with a very light impact on your computer.
• ESET: light and fast, ideal for older computers and for business use.
• Kaspersky: strong threat detection and feature-rich suites for families.
• Norton: the Norton 360 range combines antivirus, VPN and cloud storage for backups.
• Avast and AVG: easy to use, sharing the same detection engine.
• McAfee: multi-device licenses with a focus on identity protection.
• Panda Dome: cloud-based protection, light and unobtrusive.
• Malwarebytes: specialised in finding and removing malware.
• Webroot: cloud scanning with a minimal footprint on your system.
• Watchdog: a cloud scanner that works as a second opinion next to your main antivirus.

Delivery and activation in three steps

1. Choose the license you want and complete your payment.
2. Receive an email with your activation key and instructions to download the software from the official vendor website.
3. Install the software and enter the key. Protection starts immediately.

In the rare case that a license needs restocking, it is delivered automatically to your email within 3 business days.

Frequently asked questions

Can I renew a subscription I already have?

With most brands, yes. Enter the new key in your account or inside the app, and the new period is added to your current one. If you are not sure about your case, ask us before you buy.

Do I need two antivirus programs?

No. One complete antivirus is enough, and running two at the same time can cause conflicts. The exception is tools such as Malwarebytes and Watchdog, which are designed to work alongside your main antivirus.

What happens if I change computers?

With most suites, you deactivate the license on the old device and activate it on the new one through your vendor account. The key is not lost.

Do Macs and phones need antivirus?

Threats targeting macOS and Android grow every year, especially fake apps and phishing messages. A multi-device license covers the whole household with a single key.
