Hi

Is it possible to purchace multiple (monthly based) licenses (for example for Photoshop) under one account, and use them on different computers? They would only last one month for summercamps next year.

one license allows use on an unlimited number of internet connected computers.  but the licenses can only be used on, at most, two computers at any one time.  so for one user, one license works well.

 

if you wanted to allow more than 2 computers to use adobe products at one time you should check a team or enterprise license.

Normally the Teams plan would be ideal, except for the one-month part. The Teams plans are annual-only and not month-to-month.

 

If you only wanted to use the software for one month, then purchasing a bunch of Individual monthly licenses is really your only option (using multiple emails / accounts). 

 

On the flip side, in the old days with perpetual licenses you would have had to buy the entire full-freight software upfront just to use it for a month – a one-month-only usage was simply not possible.

SOME programs are available Monthly https://community.adobe.com/t5/Get-Started/Being-charged-for-a-full-year-when-i-m-on-month-to-month/td-p/10248222 - links and pictures

 

Otherwise, a subscription is for one year, with a fee to cancel early
