Applies to
Persons selling merchandise or a service for a specified period under a written agreement containing an automatic-renewal provision. Insurance, regulated utilities and financial institutions are described as excluded.
Whether this framework reaches a monthly subscriptionThis framework is summarized as reaching contracts above a term threshold rather than every subscription, so an ordinary month-to-month plan may sit outside it. Only the checks that concern longer contracts relate to it here. This chapter is described as defining automatic renewal as renewal for a period of more than one month, which places month-to-month subscriptions outside it.
