Subscription Period
The subscription period is the duration for which you have purchased access to the platform’s features. During this time, you can:
- Share scorecards proactively with other companies.
- Accept scorecard-sharing requests from business partners.
- Access platform features, including viewing and sharing scorecards, sharing metrics, and accessing courses in EcoVadis Academy.

🔹 Note: An active subscription is required to access platform features and share your scorecard.
After the validity period expires, the scorecard must be updated through a reassessment to remain current.
