nonpaying

Not settling bills

Nonpaying describes someone who doesn't pay for something, especially when payment would normally be expected.

A nonpaying guest stays without charge.

Nonpaying customers receive services for free—sometimes legitimately, sometimes not: The theater was losing money to nonpaying patrons who snuck in through the exit doors.
