recurring charge

Regular billed expense

A recurring charge is a fee that repeats at regular intervals—monthly, annually, or on some other schedule.

The term appears most often in billing contexts: subscription services, membership dues, automatic renewals.

I forgot to cancel and got hit with another recurring charge.

Financial advisors often recommend auditing your recurring charges to find forgotten subscriptions draining your account.
