Subscriptions are understood as a mechanism for paying for certain services, when a sum of money is deducted from the user every month (or six months). These can be subscriptions to newspapers, music tracks, various services and inside software and so on.
The technology itself is classified into 2 broad categories:
1 non-renewable subscriptions. An example is service packages for a season for watching some games. Or a regular service relevant for the current season. At the end of it, the user can perform the renewal manually. 2 Renewable on the machine. At the end of a certain period, if there is enough money on the user's accounts, they are debited automatically for the next period.Please note that auto renewal is carried out a few hours before the next payment period. The resource of the "apple" company indicates eight hours, but a number of programs indicate 24 hours. This suggests that it is better to cancel subscriptions no later than a day before debiting money.
