About Microsoft Company Store
The Microsoft Company Store is a specialized retail program operated by Microsoft that offers discounted Microsoft products to eligible groups such as current employees, alumni, and approved friends and family. Through the online portal at msecompanystores.com, customers can purchase Microsoft 365 subscriptions, Xbox games and services, Windows and other software, Surface devices and accessories, and Microsoft-branded merchandise, often at prices not available to the general public. The site is operated on a dedicated e‑commerce platform and is referenced in official Microsoft support channels as the new home for the Online Company Store after migration from earlier eCompanyStore URLs.([msecompanystores.com](https://www.msecompanystores.com/en-us/c/login-assistance/))
A charge with a descriptor like “MSE COMPANYSTORES USD” typically reflects a purchase or renewal processed through the Microsoft Company Store’s new platform, msecompanystores.com. These charges may include one‑time purchases (hardware, accessories, or software keys), discounted Microsoft 365 or other subscription renewals, or taxes and shipping fees applied to those orders. Some banks may initially show the charge as a pending authorization when you place an order or update a payment method; this can result in small temporary holds or duplicate-looking entries that later settle as a single final transaction.
If you’re unsure about a charge, first try signing in to the Microsoft Company Store site using the same Microsoft account (or corporate/alumni login) associated with your eligibility and review your recent orders and billing history. Order confirmation emails from the store will also list the exact amount charged and the last four digits of the payment card. If something looks wrong, you can contact the Online Store Support team via the contact details on msecompanystores.com, or Microsoft Support for subscription or technical billing issues, as indicated on the site’s login‑assistance and contact pages. When disputing a charge with your bank, having your order number, date, and any support correspondence from the Microsoft Company Store will help speed resolution.([msecompanystores.com](https://www.msecompanystores.com/en-us/c/login-assistance/))
