ApsaraMQ for Kafka:Renew a subscription instance

Last Updated:Mar 11, 2026

Subscription-based ApsaraMQ for Kafka instances must be renewed before they expire. If an instance is not renewed in time, resources become unavailable due to overdue payments.

Important

To avoid missed renewals, enable Auto-renewal when you purchase an instance. With auto-renewal enabled, fees are automatically deducted based on the actual prices before the instance expires, on a one-month renewal cycle. No manual action is required.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure that you have:

  • A subscription-based ApsaraMQ for Kafka instance in the Running or Expired state

Procedure

  1. Log on to the ApsaraMQ for Kafka console.

  2. In the Resource Distribution section of the Overview page, select the region where your instance resides.

  3. On the Instances page, click the name of the instance.

  4. On the Instance Details page, click Renew in the upper-right corner of the Overview section.

  5. In the Renew panel, specify the subscription duration, select the terms of service, and then click Buy Now.

  6. In the Unpaid Orders panel, confirm the order details and click Purchase.

Result

After renewal, go to the Instance Details page. In the Configuration Information section, verify that the expiration time has been updated.
