How do I stop auto-renewal on Namecheap?

Last updated on September 24, 2022 @ 6:49 pm

When you sign up for Namecheap, it is possible to set up auto-renewal for your account. This means that your account will be automatically renewed every month, unless you cancel it. If you want to cancel your auto-renewal, you can do so by going to your Account Settings and clicking on the “Cancel Auto Renewal” button. However, it is important to keep in mind that if you cancel your auto-renewal, you will not be able to access your account until the next month’s renewal date.

In addition, if you do not cancel your auto-renewal, your account will be automatically renewed for the price of the plan you are on, which will be the same as the price of the plan after your current billing cycle has ended. So, it is important to weigh the pros and cons of auto-renewal before deciding whether or not to use it.

One pro of using auto-renewal is that it can help you keep your account more organized. Having your account set up to auto-renew every month can help you avoid forgetting to cancel your subscription, and can help you keep track of your account’s overall expenses.

Another pro of using auto-renewal is that it can help you save money. If you auto-renew your account, you will be charged the same price for the plan you are on, even if your billing cycle has already ended.

This can help you save money if you are on a plan that is expensive, or if you plan to use your account for a long time.

PRO TIP: If you are cancelling your Namecheap account or domain name, you need to disable auto-renewal to avoid being charged again. Here’s how to do it:

1) Log in to your Namecheap account
2) Select the domains tab at the top
3) Click on the checkbox next to the domain name (s) you wish to cancel
4) Click on the “Auto Renew” button at the bottom
5) Select “disable” from the drop down menu
6) Click on the green “Confirm” button

You have now successfully disabled auto-renewal for your Namecheap account or domain name.

However, there are also some cons to using auto-renewal. One con is that if you do not cancel your auto-renewal, you will be charged the same price for the plan you are on, even if your billing cycle has already ended.

This can be a lot of money if you are on a plan that is expensive, or if you plan to use your account for a long time.

Another con of using auto-renewal is that it can be difficult to cancel. If you want to cancel your auto-renewal, you will first need to go to your Account Settings and click on the “Cancel Auto Renewal” button.

This can be a bit of a hassle if you are not sure whether or not you want to cancel your auto-renewal, or if you are not able to access your account.

Overall, auto-renewal is a useful feature, but it is important to weigh the pros and cons before deciding whether or not to use it.
