Subscriptions, extensions, and tokens
In Fusion, a Purchase Manager screen enables you to:
- Subscribe to Fusion.
- Purchase access to Fusion extensions for unlocking advanced capabilities in Fusion.
- Buy Flex tokens, which is a virtual currency. You can use tokens for pay-as-you-go access to Fusion and other Autodesk products through Autodesk Flex, for daily access to certain Fusion extensions, and for cloud computational services in Fusion.
An example of the Purchase Manager when using a free trial of Fusion:
Access the Purchase Manager
You can access the Purchase Manager directly in Fusion from the Application bar.
If you are using a free trial of Fusion and want to keep using Fusion when your trial ends, click Subscribe Now.
If you are using Fusion for personal use and want to upgrade to Fusion’s full functionality, click Upgrade then select See plans and pricing in the flyout.
If you have a paid subscription of Fusion and want to unlock advanced capabilities with Fusion extensions, click Extensions . You can also choose to purchase extra subscriptions for team members.
When you add a Fusion subscription or Flex tokens to your cart, secure checkout continues on the Autodesk website.
Bring Your Own Subscription (BYOS)
Bring Your Own Subscription (BYOS) is a policy that defines access to Fusion, as well as some other Autodesk products.
Fusion administrators are responsible for setting up a hub for collaboration.
While Fusion contract managers can assign and manage individuals’ access to subscriptions, Fusion hub administrators have the ability to invite people to a hub without needing to assign a subscription.
If a person without an active Fusion subscription accepts an invitation to join a hub, they’ll start a free 30-day trial, (starting once they first access Fusion) unless previously used.
If a person is invited to a hub and already has a Fusion subscription, they can start using the hub:
- Regardless of the individual or business entity that owns the Fusion hub.
- Regardless of which individual or business entity has purchased the subscription to Fusion (subject to conformance with the “Authorized User” definition and other conditions in the Autodesk Terms of Use).
- Regardless of the location of the data center on which the site is hosted (Europe, for example).
For more information on BYOS and Fusion, see the Subscriptions & Other Offerings page.
