Auto Renew is the simplest way to keep your protection running without having to remember to renew every year. This page explains why it's worth enabling — and answers the most common questions people have before they turn it on.
The Benefits of Auto Renew
- 🔒 Your protection never has a gap - Cyber threats don't take a break — and neither should your protection. With Auto Renew on, your subscription continues automatically when it expires. You don't have to remember a renewal date or risk your computer being unprotected even for a day.
- ⏱️ One less thing to think about - Life gets busy. Whether you're traveling, in the middle of a hectic week, or just have a lot going on — Auto Renew means you never wake up to a "your protection has expired" message at an inconvenient moment.
- ✅ You're always in control - You can turn Auto Renew off at any time from your Trend Micro Account — no phone call required, no hoops to jump through. And if you're ever charged when you didn't expect it, our support team will help you quickly.
- 💌 You'll always get advance notice - Before your subscription renews, Trend Micro sends you an email reminder. You'll know the renewal is coming, what you'll be charged, and how to make changes if you want to.
What Will I Be Charged at Renewal?
This is the most common question — and we want to be upfront about it.
Your renewal price may be different from the promotional price you originally paid.
- Introductory prices apply to new purchases only. The standard annual renewal price is set at the time of your subscription and may be higher than your first-year price
The good news: You can check your exact renewal price before it happens — at any time — from your Trend Micro Account.
How to Check If Auto Renew Is Currently On
Not sure whether your subscription is set to auto-renew? Here's a quick way to check:
- Sign in to account.trendmicro.com.
- Click the Licenses tab and find your subscription.
- Look at the button next to it:
- "Manage Subscription" → Auto Renew is ON
- "Renew Now" → Auto Renew is OFF
✅ That's your current Auto Renew status — no guesswork needed.
🔔 If you don't see either button, or the button doesn't respond:
- Auto Renew may already be in the process of renewing (syncing after a recent charge)
- You may be signed in to a different Trend Micro account than expected
- Contact Trend Micro Support if you're unsure — they can confirm your status in minutes
