autorenews

Continues without intervention

Autorenews describes a subscription or membership that automatically renews at the end of its term without requiring action from the customer: My gym membership autorenews every year unless I cancel.

The feature is convenient but often catches people off guard when charges appear unexpectedly.

Also styled auto-renews.
