For more information, see [aka.ms/aboutM365preview](https://aka.ms/aboutM365preview). The **Billing account** page allows you to manage organization information, purchasing agreements that you have with Microsoft, and admin approvals. The organization information and payment options are required before you can shop for products that have a price. ## Organization information We need your business address, email contact, and tax-exemption certificates that apply to your country or locale. ### Business address and email contact Before purchasing apps that have a fee, you need to add or update your organization's business address, contact email address, and contact name. We use the Business address to calculate sales tax. If your organization's address has already been entered for other commercial purchases through Microsoft Store, or through other online purchases such as Office 365 or Azure subscriptions, then we’ll use the same address in Microsoft Store for Business and Microsoft Store for Education. If we don’t have an address, we’ll ask you to enter it during your first purchase. We need an email address in case we need to contact you about your Microsoft Store for Business and for Education account. This email account should reach the admin for your organization’s Office 365 or Azure AD tenant that is used with Microsoft Store. **To update billing account information** 1.
