Do servers renew automatically, and how does renewal work?

Renewals are designed to be predictable, with plenty of lead time so nothing catches you by surprise.

How renewal works

  • A renewal invoice is generated automatically 10 days before the due date.
  • If you've set up automatic payment, it's paid on the due date on its own.
  • If not, your server is suspended until you pay.
  • You can also prepay early, or pay after suspension, to keep your service running.

Staying uninterrupted

The 10-day lead time gives you room to pay before anything is interrupted. Auto-pay is the simplest way to never miss a due date.

Tip: The 10-day lead time gives you plenty of room to pay before anything is interrupted.

Frequently asked questions

Does my server renew on its own? A renewal invoice is generated automatically. If auto-pay is on, it's paid for you on the due date; if not, you pay it manually.

What happens if I don't pay by the due date? Your server is suspended until payment. You can still pay after suspension to bring it back, within the suspension window.
