How Billing Cycles Work
Last updated 14 Mar 2026 · 5 views
Understanding your billing cycle helps you manage your subscription and avoid unexpected charges.
Available Billing Cycles
PremierVPN offers the following billing frequencies, depending on your plan:
- Monthly — billed every month
- Quarterly — billed every 3 months
- Semi-Annual — billed every 6 months
- Annual — billed every 12 months
- Biennial — billed every 24 months
How Renewals Work
When you subscribe, your first billing period begins immediately. Your "Current Period" dates are shown on the Dashboard. Before your period ends, you will receive a renewal reminder email.
Card and PayPal Payments
Renewals are processed automatically. Your card or PayPal account will be charged on the renewal date.
Cryptocurrency Payments
Crypto payments are not automatically recurring. You will receive an email with a payment link before your renewal is due. You can also click "Renew Now (Crypto)" on the Dashboard when your renewal date is within 7 days.
Note: If a renewal payment fails, your service may be suspended. See the What Happens When a Payment Fails article for more information.
FAQs
Can I change my billing cycle?
Yes. See the How to Change Your Billing Cycle article.
When does a plan change take effect?
Plan changes (upgrading or downgrading to a different product) take effect immediately. Billing cycle changes (e.g., switching from monthly to annual on the same plan) take effect at your next renewal date.
