Gift cards are non-renewable. They end automatically after the final month's box has shipped. You do not need to take any action to end a gift subscription. You do not need to provide any payment details to redeem a gift card.
If you would like to continue receiving boxes after the gift period, you have a few options:
Option 1 - Opt into automatic renewal
When you redeem your gift card, you will be prompted to add your payment details if you want the subscription to automatically continue after the gifted months finish. This is optional. You do not need to add payment details or opt into this to redeem a gift card.
If you do, you will be billed £12.95 on the 1st of the month after your final gift box has shipped. This will automatically renew each month unless it is cancelled.
Option 2 - Purchase a rebillable subscription
After the last month of your subscription is over, you'll be able to manually subscribe to keep receiving boxes - i.e. if your gift subscription ended with the September box, from October 1st you will be able to purchase a subscription.
You can purchase a 3/6/12 month subscription or a monthly rebillable subscription. This subscription will automatically renew every payment cycle, unless you cancel or opt out of renewal.
Option 3 - Received another gift card
If you are gifted another gift card you will need to wait until after the final month of your current subscription to redeem it - i.e. if your final month on your current gift subscription is January you can redeem your next card from February 1st.
