Frequently Asked Questions

Does a Microsoft 365 Family or Personal plan include Clipchamp Premium?

Yes, Microsoft 365 Personal and Family subscriptions include the standard features along with specific premium filters and effects. However, they do not include the full standalone Clipchamp Premium tier.

Why are some premium features still locked in Clipchamp?

If you are properly signed in with your Microsoft 365 account but still see locked tools (such as brand kits or premium stock audio), those specific assets are not bundled with Microsoft 365 and require the separate Clipchamp Premium subscription.

How do I check my current Clipchamp plan and features?

Click on your profile icon in the top right corner of the Clipchamp interface and select 'Billing' or 'Upgrade'. This page will display your current subscription tier and the specific features available to you.
