Automatic Renewal Suggestions

Quick Release analyzes your usage to suggest the optimal renewal:

Plan Suggestions

If your seat usage exceeds your current plan limits, the system may suggest:

  • Upgrading to a higher-tier plan (e.g., TROPO → STRATO)
  • Choosing yearly billing for cost savings

SMS Suggestions

If your SMS credits are running low, suggested SMS packages appear in the New Order section.


Grace Period

If your subscription expires, a grace period allows continued access while you complete renewal:

  • Default grace period: Configured per tenant (typically 14-30 days)
  • During grace period: All features remain accessible with expiration warnings
  • After grace period: Feature blocking activates

Blocked Features

When the grace period ends without renewal:

  • ❌ Creating new bookings
  • ❌ Adding new flights
  • ❌ Issuing new vouchers
  • ✅ Viewing existing data (read-only access)

Early Renewal

You can renew before expiration at any time:

  • The new subscription period starts from your current expiration date
  • No overlap or lost days between subscription periods

Custom Subscriptions

If you have a custom subscription arrangement:

  1. Contact Quick Release support to request renewal
  2. A custom quote will be provided
  3. Renewal is processed manually by the Quick Release team

Troubleshooting

“Debtor not valid” Error

Your billing account must be validated before placing orders. Contact your administrator to resolve any missing billing information.

Order Stuck in “CONFIRMED”

Confirmed orders await admin approval. If your order remains in CONFIRMED status for more than 2 business days, contact Quick Release support.

Subscription Still Blocked After Payment

Invoice payment processing may take up to 24 hours. If your subscription remains blocked after payment confirmation, contact support with your invoice number.
