Auto-renewing SecMaster
Auto-renewal makes renewal easier and prevents SecMaster instances from being automatically deleted if you forget to manually renew them. The auto-renewal rules are as follows:
- The first auto-renewal date and billing cycle are calculated based on the expiration date of your SecMaster instance.
- The SecMaster auto-renewal duration is of your choice For example, if you set the subscription duration to three months, SecMaster will be automatically renewed for another three months before expiration.
- Auto-renewal can be enabled before your SecMaster instance expires. The system will automatically renew the instance at 3:00 a.m. on the seventh day before it expires. If the auto-renewal fails, the system will try again at 3:00 a.m. every day until your SecMaster resource expires or the renewal is successful.
- You can still perform a manual renewal even when auto-renewal is enabled. After a manual renewal is complete, auto-renewal is still in effect, and the system will start deducting renewal fees from your account 7 days before the new subscription expires.
- By default, the system automatically deducts fees from your account 7 days before your instance expires. You can change the renewal date to another day if needed, for example, 6 days or 5 days before the instance expires.
