IS YOUR COMPUTER SLOW? RUN LIKE NEW

If they are not maintained, computers lose performance over time. Avast Cleanup Premium can help significantly improve the performance of your computer.

Adding a missing subscription to your Avast Account

You can manually add a missing subscription to your Avast Account using one of the methods below:

  • Using an activated Avast product: When a subscription is already active on at least one device, you can add the subscription to your Avast Account by signing in to the activated product with your Avast Account credentials.
We are introducing a new Avast account portal experience, designed to enhance usability and security. This phased rollout means you may see a different experience on the sign in screen. To support you during this transition, this article now includes tabs comparing the current and new sign-in screens.  
  • Using current Avast Account Sign in: You can add the email address that you used to purchase the missing subscription to your Avast Account. When you add a new email address to your Avast Account, all of the Avast subscriptions that you purchased using this email address appear in your Avast Account.
  • Using new Avast Account Sign in: You can restore your subscription by adding the email address that you used to purchase the missing subscription to your Avast Account.
An Avast subscription cannot appear in more than one Avast Account simultaneously. If your subscription already appears in an Avast Account, it is not possible to add the subscription to an additional account using the instructions in this article.
