This topic describes how to enable and disable auto-renewal for an ApsaraDB for MongoDB subscription instance. Auto-renewal relieves you from the tedious work of regularly renewing your ApsaraDB for MongoDB subscription instance and helps ensure service continuity. You can also disable auto-renewal if needed.
Background information
You can enable auto-renewal when purchasing an ApsaraDB for MongoDB instance. You also have the option to enable auto-renewal in the ApsaraDB for MongoDB console after the instance is created. The system automatically renews your instance based on the selected renewal cycle. For example, if you select a three-month renewal cycle, you are charged for a three-month subscription each renewal cycle.
- Subscription on a monthly basis: The auto-renewal cycle is a month.
- Subscription on a yearly basis: The auto-renewal cycle is a year.
