termination fees

Contract cancellation costs

Termination fees are charges imposed when someone ends a contract before its agreed-upon duration.

They appear in cell phone plans, gym memberships, leases, and business agreements: The early termination fee was three hundred dollars.

The fees compensate the other party for lost expected revenue and discourage customers from breaking commitments.
