Nothing renews
silently.
Prerenew catches every subscription renewal before it charges you, holds the decision, and asks one calm question: keep, pause, or cancel? Your money, your choice, every time. We never stop a charge for you.
Reminders arrive by email even if you never install the app. Your vault uses your country and currency — not a US default.
Catch. Hold. Choose.
Trackers show you charts. Banks show you what already left. Prerenew asks before it renews.
1. Catch
Renewals and trial conversions are spotted days ahead. Reminders at T-7, T-3, T-1 and on the day, capped at two a day, never in your quiet hours. Email is the channel you can count on; push is extra.
2. Hold
Watched items wait in amber until you have the bandwidth. We do not pay, block, or cancel anything. We hold the decision.
3. Choose
One question — did you use it? — then keep, pause, or cancel. Pause and cancel open a short playbook. You still finish with the provider.
Built to beat a tracker
Other apps list what you pay. Prerenew stops the silent renewal. No bank login, no store, no US-only catalog.
| Prerenew | Manual trackers | Bank-linked apps | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Decide before it charges | Review Gate: keep, pause, cancel | A reminder, then you are on your own | A list of merchants |
| Bank login | Never | Never | Required (Plaid / Open Banking) |
| Where it works | Any country, your currency | Often one store, one currency | Home market of the bank |
| Cancel for you | No — a playbook you finish | No | Sometimes, for a cut of savings |
| Setup | Three names, or paste a statement | Tap every tile | Wait for transactions |
The Review Gate
Renewals queue as decisions, one at a time. Keep is as honourable as cancel.
Trial rescue
Free trials get a countdown card when they dip under 48 hours.
Monthly reality number
One figure for what leaves this month, in your currency, plus a ledger of what you kept by choosing.
Pause is first-class
Amber holds instead of red alarms. “Not right now” is a valid answer.
Trusted tier
Subscriptions you already chose renew quietly. You only decide about the ones you asked to watch.
Why a decision before the charge
Auto-renew is designed so people keep paying. Payment-network research shows that inattention roughly doubles seller revenue. We collected the studies behind Catch, Hold and Choose, and we say where the evidence is thin. Designed with ADHD and autistic adults; the same product for everyone.
Auto-renew is the trap. Not you.
Create a vault, add three subscriptions, and the next renewal waits in amber until you choose. Free in beta. Export or delete any time.
