Know before a bill quietly goes up
Renewal receipts, price notices and trial endings become tracked subscriptions with real dates. Koba keeps today’s price until the new one takes effect, splits shared plans each time they renew, and tells you a week ahead.

Cancelling keeps the access you already paid for
When you cancel, Koba stops expecting renewals and shows when your access actually ends. If you resubscribe, it picks the subscription back up instead of starting a duplicate. A date you set yourself is never overwritten by a later email.

Questions
Will a renewal be counted twice if I also connected my bank?
No. The renewal receipt, the bank charge and the subscription are matched, so the charge is counted once.
What if a date is only an estimate?
Koba says so and shows what it is based on, such as the trial start. A date you set yourself always wins.
Can a subscription belong to a household?
Yes. Put it on a space and each renewal is split between the members, to the cent.
