Automatically Renewing a Package

Auto-renewal can avoid extra costs incurred because you forget to manually renew the packages. The auto-renewal rules are as follows:

  • The first auto-renewal date is based on the expiration date and the billing cycle.
  • The auto-renewal period of a renewed package is subject to the effective period of the original package.
  • You can enable auto-renewal at any time before a package expires. The system will make the first attempt to charge your account for the renewal at 03:00 seven days before the expiration date. If this attempt fails, it will make another attempt at 03:00 every day until the subscription is renewed or expires.
  • After auto-renewal is enabled, you can still renew the package manually if you want to. After a manual renewal is complete, auto-renewal is still valid, and the renewal cost will be deducted from your account seven days before the new expiry date.
  • By default, the renewal cost is deducted from your account seven days before the new expiry date. You can change this auto-renewal payment date as required.

For more information about auto-renewal rules, see Auto-Renewal Rules.
