# Renewals and Billing Cycles

Ideogram subscriptions renew automatically at the billing frequency you chose when subscribing — monthly or annual. Your payment method is charged on each renewal date until you cancel.

## Finding your next renewal date

Click your avatar at the bottom of the sidebar and select **Wallet & Billing**. The plan card shows **Renews on** and the date.

The billing portal shows it too. Click **Manage plan & billing** in the plan card, and the date appears under your current subscription.

## Credits on renewal

Your monthly credits reset each month on your renewal day, and unused monthly credits don't carry over. Yearly plans work the same way: you pay once a year, but credits arrive each month. Credits you bought separately aren't affected. See [Plans and Credits](/plans-and-billing/available-plans.md#how-credits-work).

## Avoiding an unwanted renewal

* Cancel **at least 5 days before your renewal date** — per the [Terms of Service](https://ideogram.ai/legal/tos), cancellations must be made five (5) days ahead of renewal to take effect for that period. See [Cancelling Your Subscription](/plans-and-billing/billing-and-subscriptions/cancelling-your-subscription.md).
* Cancelling early does not shorten your access: you keep your plan benefits until the end of the period you already paid for. There is no reason to wait until the last day.
* Annual plans renew once a year, which makes the renewal easy to forget. If you don't plan to continue, cancel ahead of time — Ideogram doesn't offer refunds (see [Refunds](/plans-and-billing/billing-and-subscriptions/refunds.md)).

## Invoices for renewal charges

Every charge has an invoice under **Invoice history** on **Wallet & Billing**. See [Invoices, Receipts, and Tax Details](/plans-and-billing/billing-and-subscriptions/invoices-receipts-and-tax-details.md).
