Automatic renewals and continuous service offers; require certain protection for consumers regarding.

HB 987 requires businesses offering automatic renewals or continuous services (like streaming subscriptions or software) to clearly explain terms before charging customers and obtain their explicit agreement. It mandates that businesses present renewal terms prominently, get "affirmative consent" (such as a clear click or signature) before charging, and provide easy online cancellation options. The bill also requires businesses to notify customers of material changes to terms and refund charges if consent wasn't properly obtained. It excludes banks, credit unions, utilities, and other regulated entities from these requirements. The law would take effect July 1, 2026, but died in committee in February 2026.
