UW-Madison Zoom - View and Request Add-on Licenses

UW-Madison Zoom accounts have access to a limited number of premium add-on licenses that are shared amongst campus. Requests for a premium add-on license require approval to ensure appropriate use cases are accommodated. Approval is subject to add-on availability and use case.

Note: Individuals interested in a Zoom add-on license that is not currently offered (ex: webinar 3,000) can open a support ticket. The request will need to be reviewed by UW System procurement and may require a charge back. The review process may take approximately 3-5 months.
