If you're interested in stacking Personal (max 5 years) and converting to family, here is my experience with doing so last week.
- The consensus is 5 years is the maximum subscription length you can stack, so I stacked 60 months of Personal.
- Upon redeeming each 15 month code, I was offered an additional 1 month (I think this is because they were 15 month codes, I was expecting to be offered 3 months) for turning on autorenewal. I declined each time as I was worried this would put me at 61 months and prevent me from adding the family code.
- I do not think that if I accepted the first free month, then turned off autorenewal before adding a second code that any additional free months would be offered, but who knows.
- Once I stacked 5 years of Personal and was good through September 2030, I then redeemed the 12 month family. On redeeming this, I was offered an additional 3 months for turning on autorenewal. Initially it seemed like it was going to give me until December 2031, but on the next screen it acknowledged that the key was for a family subscription and said that if I added the code, it would convert my existing subscription to family and the personal sub would be prorated (but didn't tell me what the % was). The revised expiry date was December 2030, so presumably 80%?
The 12 month offers the better per month cost, so will likely sell out quicker. If you're looking to do the conversion buy 5 of these (in 2 orders of 3x and 2x if utilizing the app discount), decline auto renew each time, then redeem your 12 month family and accept free 3 months for turning on auto renew. You should end up good through December 2030 with a cost per user per month of $0.82.

When I add another year of Family, I have always been offered another free month if I turn on auto-renew, which I do, get the free month after redemption, and then immediately turn off auto-renew.
Rinse and repeat.
NM clicked thru the link details and the 10% off shows up after you put in payment details and are ready to submit. Thanks OP!

family subscription
if they bought 4 or 5 15month personal codes,
can they apply them to the existing Family sub?
if so, does it ask each time if they want to convert from personal subscription(sub) to family sub?
thanks for the help!

Your account gets upgraded to Microsoft 365 Personal, separate from the Family plan.
You will no longer be part of the Family plan—your subscription becomes independent.
You'll retain all your files, settings, and OneDrive storage, but:
You'll only get 1 TB of OneDrive (instead of shared Family storage).
You can't share your subscription with others.
If your Personal subscription expires and the Family plan is still active, you can rejoin the Family plan if invited again.
If the owner of the Family plan adds a 12-month Personal code:
The Family plan owner's account becomes Microsoft 365 Personal, and:
The Family plan is canceled.
All invited members (like you) lose access to the shared subscription.
Each member would need to get their own subscription or be invited to a new Family plan.
Whatever you do, Microsoft's system will make it very clear what the impact of adding the code will be before asking you for confirmation you want to do it, and say if you don't want that to happen then you should hold on to the code and let the current system expire.
What is your friend's long term goal here? Leave the plan and have his own sub, or try and extend the family plan as cheaply as possible?4

If I buy the 15month subscription and, can I extend the current subscription?

It sounds like the way to go is decline the autorenewal bonus until adding the 12 month family, since that offered me 3 free months (though this was on 5 years of stacked personal, not sure whether you also stacked 5 years or just two).

Also had a 10% woot offer on a Freedom card which should take off another 10%. I doubt I'll beat $40/yr for personal.
