How to Configure On-Demand Renewals<\/h1>\n
\n
\n

WHMCS 8.8 introduced on-demand renewals for existing services, allowing clients to renew services early, before the system generates the next invoice. This can help you retain your existing customers and avoid customer support needs due to customers who have missed their due dates. In WHMCS 8.9, we added on-demand renewals for product addons.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

For more information, see\u00a0On-Demand Renewals.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

You can enable on-demand renewals globally, for all products and services on your WHMCS installation, and configure them further on a per-product or per-addon basis. On-demand renewals are disabled globally by default.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
    \n
  • \n

    When you enable on-demand renewals, they will be available for both existing services\u00a0and\u00a0<\/strong>future purchases of the applicable products and product addons.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    On-demand renewals\u00a0only\u00a0<\/strong>renew eligible services. They will not affect ineligible addons for those services and are not available for services that use metric billing.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

      \n
      \n

      3. Enter the length, in days, of the desired renewal period for each billing cycle. For example, if you enter 14 for\u00a0Monthly<\/strong>, your customers can renew their the service up to 14 days ahead of their monthly due date.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

      \n
