SUMMARY:UK law deadline: New UK subscription rules start on 1 January 2027
DESCRIPTION:New UK rules for subscriptions start on 1 January 2027\, broug
 ht forward from spring 2027. They cover auto-renewing subscriptions sold 
 to UK consumers\, including product subscriptions like refills and boxes.
  Businesses will need to give clearer information before sign-up\, send r
 eminders before renewals\, and let customers cancel easily.\n\nWhat to do
 :\n- List every subscription you sell: Include subscribe-and-save\, membe
 rships and boxes\, plus the app that runs them\, so you know what's in sc
 ope.\n- Review sign-up\, reminders and cancellation: Check what customers
  see before they subscribe\, whether they get reminders before renewals\,
  and how easy it is to cancel online.\n- Ask your subscription app what i
 t's changing: Apps like Recharge or Skio will need to support the new rul
 es. Ask what they're building and when.\n- Get advice if you're unsure: T
 hese are legal requirements\, so check the official guidance and take leg
 al advice for your business.\n\nFull story: https://www.ecomwire.co.uk/st
