?? Domain Auto-Renewal Workflow
-
Before Expiry: The system will automatically attempt to renew the domain using the payment method that is associated with their account.
-
Notification: Clients will be notified about the renewal attempt, and if successful, they'll receive a confirmation email.
-
Failure Handling: If the payment fails, WHMCS may attempt to process the payment again depending on the gateway and retry policy.
