QuickBooks Desktop for Mac has been available only in the United States and is being phased out, with support for Desktop 2023 ending on May 31, 2026, and Desktop 2024 ending on September 30, 2027.

If you use QuickBooks Desktop on a Mac, it is time to plan your next move. Intuit stopped selling new QuickBooks Desktop Mac Plus subscriptions on September 30, 2024, and QuickBooks Mac 2024 is the final Mac version. Existing users can continue renewing for now, but support is expected to end around 2027. After that, connected services like payroll, bank feeds, payment processing, and security updates may no longer be available. If you don’t rely on any of these connected services then you might be able to continue using it for a couple more years, as long as you get lucky and QuickBooks Desktop continues to be compatible with the Mac operating system (macOS).

Here’s a brief list of some of your options. If you’d like to continue using a version of QuickBooks then Intuit would love to have you migrate to QuickBooks Online, a web-based version of QuickBooks. While this product has a similar name its user-interface is completely different so you’ll have to spend some time learning how to use QuickBooks Online.

Some other popular online small business accounting systems are Xero, Freshbooks and Wave Acccounting.

If your business has very simple bookkeeping needs, you might find that you could get away with using Quicken.
