SwissSoftware24 started much more simply: with patience, pragmatism, and a clear promise to support customers honestly and reliably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We began small - in a single room that served as office, storage, and workshop at the same time. From day one, we knew that trust doesn\u2019t come from big words. It comes from fast replies, transparent processes, and a partnership mindset. That approach helped us grow step by step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, many years later, we\u2019ve processed over 500,000 orders - and we\u2019re genuinely grateful for every single one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Table of contents<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"#SwissSoftware24-in-Zahlen\" data-type=\"internal\" data-id=\"#SwissSoftware24-in-Zahlen\">SwissSoftware24 in numbers - honest, transparent, easy to verify<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#ricardo.ch\" data-type=\"internal\" data-id=\"#ricardo.ch\">How it all began<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#Service-bei-digitalen-Produkten\" data-type=\"internal\" data-id=\"#Service-bei-digitalen-Produkten\">From hardware trading to software specialist<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#kontakt\" data-type=\"internal\" data-id=\"#kontakt\">What makes SwissSoftware24 different<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#b2b\">Contact &amp; availability<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#Zusammenarbeit-mit-Herstellern-und-Ausbau-des-Angebots\" data-type=\"internal\" data-id=\"#Zusammenarbeit-mit-Herstellern-und-Ausbau-des-Angebots\">B2B \u2013 zuverl\u00e4ssig, schnell, dokumentiert<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#Bestellabwicklung\" data-type=\"internal\" data-id=\"#Bestellabwicklung\">Partnerships &amp; product range<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#Fazit\" data-type=\"internal\" data-id=\"#Fazit\">Delivery - explained simply<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#faq\" data-type=\"internal\" data-id=\"#faq\">FAQ - most common questions<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"SwissSoftware24-in-Zahlen\">SwissSoftware24 in numbers - honest, transparent, easy to verify<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Start:<\/strong> 2013 as a one-person business on ricardo.ch<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>2015:<\/strong> expanded to eBay &amp; Amazon<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>2016:<\/strong> entered the German &amp; Austrian markets<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>2017:<\/strong> launched our own shop swisssoftware24.ch<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>2019:<\/strong> expansion of sales, among others, to France, Italy, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Spain, Poland, the Netherlands, Portugal, Belgium<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Trademark <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swissreg.ch\/database-client\/register\/detail\/trademark\/1207211128\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.swissreg.ch\/database-client\/register\/detail\/trademark\/1207211128\">SwissSoftware24<\/a> officially registered since 2023<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Around <strong>500\u2019000<\/strong> orders since founding<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Average response time:<\/strong> approx. 12 hours<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Returning customers:<\/strong> ca. 50%<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Independent reviews:<\/strong> 4,8 on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.toppreise.ch\/shops\/swisssoftware24-ch-s1904\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.toppreise.ch\/shops\/swisssoftware24-ch-s1904\">Toppreise store profile<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ricardo.ch\">How it all began<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2013, we sold our first two used laptops on ricardo.ch. It quickly became clear: if you work fairly, reliably, and transparently, you earn trust - even without a big budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over time, repairs, refurbishments, and services were added. And one insight has stayed with us ever since:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s not only about a product - it\u2019s about giving people a solution so they can get on with their day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Service-bei-digitalen-Produkten\">&nbsp;From hardware trading to software specialist<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We soon realized that when people buy software (and not only software), they\u2019re looking for more than \u201ca key.\u201d They want clarity, security, and someone who helps when something doesn\u2019t work on the first try.\n\nAs digital licenses became more important, we adapted early. In the beginning, keys were sent manually \u2014 later, automated. Today, most customers receive their key within minutes, around the clock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That allowed us to focus on what matters most: clean processes, clear instructions, and real support when needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"kontakt\">What makes SwissSoftware24 different<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many customers don\u2019t just want a key \u2014 they want confidence. That\u2019s why we stand for fast processing, a 100% money-back guarantee, and the option to buy on invoice. And because trust should be measurable, we openly share our key numbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"b2b\">Contact &amp; availability<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019re here for you - friendly, straightforward, and solution-focused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Monday to Friday:<\/strong>08:00\u201316:00<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Phone:<\/strong> +41 43 550 05 20<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>E-mail:<\/strong> info@swisssoftware24.ch<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In practice, we often reply within around 12 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Zusammenarbeit-mit-Herstellern-und-Ausbau-des-Angebots\">B2B - reliable, fast, well-documented<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For companies, IT teams, and institutions we offer:<br>\u2022\u2060 repeatable procurement processes<br>\u2022\u2060 fast delivery<br>\u2022\u2060 \u2060clear documentation<br>\u2022\u2060 \u2060dedicated points of contact<br>From 5 licenses onward, we provide individual offers.<br>Invoices are issued with 8.1% VAT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Bestellabwicklung\">Partnerships &amp; product range<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We work closely with manufacturers and distributors, focusing especially on areas where security and support are essential - for example with brands such as Kaspersky, Bitdefender, or ESET.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Fazit\">Delivery - explained simply<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Option A: Instant delivery (automatic)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022\u2060\u00a0Key &amp; invoice usually within approx. 5 minutes<br>\u2022\u2060 \u2060Shipping 24\/7<br>\u2022\u2060 If the email doesn\u2019t arrive: please check Spam\/Promotions \u2014 we\u2019ll help immediately\u2060<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Option B: Delivery on request<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022\u2060\u2060 For special products procurement directly via the manufacturer\/distributor<br>\u2022\u2060 \u2060Delivery time depends on availability (we communicate timing transparently)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"faq\">FAQ - most common questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1) How quickly will I receive the ESD key after purchase?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In most cases, the key and invoice are sent automatically after the payment is booked. It usually takes about 5 minutes and works 24\/7.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2) What if I don\u2019t see the email with the key or invoice?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>First check folders such as spam\/offers and whether the email address provided in the order is correct. If you still don\u2019t see the message - write to us or call us. We will verify the order and help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3) What if the key doesn\u2019t work or I have a problem with activation?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Call or write to us with the order number and a short description of the problem (e.g. the error message). We will respond and guide you through the solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4) Are all products available immediately?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of them are, but part of the products we fulfill on request. Then after the order is paid, we obtain the license from the manufacturer or distributor and send it as soon as it is made available to us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5) How long does fulfillment take in the \u201con request\u201d variant?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It depends on the product and availability at the manufacturer\/distributor, usually it is up to 3 working days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6) When and during what hours can I contact you?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Officially we are available Monday to Friday from 8:00-16:00, but whenever possible we also try to respond outside these hours and we do it as quickly as possible - on average in about 12 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7) In what languages do you support customers?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>By phone: in German and English.<br>By email: in German, English, Italian and French.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8) How can I contact you?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Phone: +(41) 43 550 05 20<br>E-mail: <a>info@swisssoftware24.ch<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9) Do you issue invoices?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes. We issue invoices with VAT 8.1%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10) Do you handle B2B orders and larger quantities of licenses?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes. We handle B2B orders - from recurring renewals to larger purchases of licenses (dozens and even hundreds of keys). You can contact us for a quote already when ordering from 5 licenses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">11) What does a B2B purchase look like step by step?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You contact us with information on how many licenses you need and which product the request concerns. Together we clarify the details and prepare an offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">12) Where can I check independent reviews of SwissSoftware24?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>On Toppreise - a Swiss price comparison and reviews site.
