I was thinking about biting the bullet and upgrading to the newest version of Quicken. I was hoping they might have a basic program that you could buy without the subscription. In doing a little research, I came across this comment in a user group:

The comment states:
So, that doesn't sound bad for me at all. My question is if anyone knows if it's true. I don't use the online services so if that's all that discontinues and I can get a couple years out of each subscription, that would be about what I was doing anyway.
Said another way, a one year subscription is currently $29.99. If I could pay that and let it run out after a year (don't pay to renew), but keep using it for another year or two and then upgrade again (rinse and repeat), I'd be fine with that. Understanding that would not work for many if you want to use the online services - which I do not.
Can anyone confirm yet what happens when the subscription runs out?

When your "membership" expires, you can either renew, or continue to use the product manually . . .
If you want to maintain access to Quicken's online services (bank downloads and mobile app) you'll need an active membership after your current version is discontinued.
The person posting uses "membership" interchangeably with "subscription".
