recontract

Renew the agreement

Recontract means to enter into a new contract, typically renewing or renegotiating terms of an existing agreement.

It's common in telecommunications, where customers recontract with their provider to extend service, often in exchange for a discounted phone or better rates.

I'll recontract with my carrier when my current plan expires.

The term also appears in employment contexts when workers renew fixed-term agreements.
