Subscription Terms Template

SUBSCRIPTION TERMS TEMPLATE FAQ

What are subscription terms?

Subscription Terms are the rules that apply when a customer signs up for a recurring plan (monthly, annual, or other billing cycle). They explain billing and renewal, how customers can cancel, whether refunds are available, and what happens if payment fails.

Where should subscription terms be shown to customers?

They should be disclosed before purchase — at checkout, in plan pages, and linked in confirmations. Many businesses also require an “I agree” checkbox. Clear disclosure reduces chargebacks and supports enforcement.

What should be included in subscription terms?

Most subscription terms include: plan details, billing cycle, auto-renewal, pricing changes, taxes, free trials (if any), cancellation steps, refunds/credits, account access during non-payment, acceptable use, and changes to the terms.

How do you handle cancellations fairly?

State whether cancellation stops the next renewal or ends access immediately, and whether you offer prorated refunds. Many businesses allow access until the end of the billing period, while others cancel immediately. The key is clarity and consistency.

Can you change subscription pricing?

Often yes with advance notice, depending on your contract and consumer laws. This template includes language for providing notice and letting customers cancel before the change takes effect.
