# 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

1. Click your profile picture and select **Manage plan**. This opens the Plans and pricing page.
2. Click **Manage plan ↗** in the Current plan card. The billing portal shows your current plan, billing frequency, and next billing date.

## 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-pricing/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 — renewal payments are non-refundable (see [Refunds](/plans-and-pricing/billing-and-subscriptions/refunds.md)).

## Invoices for renewal charges

Every charge has a corresponding invoice available in billing management. See [Invoices, Receipts, and Tax Details](/plans-and-pricing/billing-and-subscriptions/invoices-receipts-and-tax-details.md).
