Renewal tracking for households

Renewal tracking for households, for everything that quietly has a date on it

Car insurance, home insurance, a passport, a warranty, half a dozen streaming subscriptions — a household collects renewal dates faster than any one person tracks them, and they're rarely all in the same place. Renewal tracking for households puts every one of them on a single list, with a warning before any of them lapse.

Why household renewals are easy to lose track of

A household's renewals are spread across an unusual mix of documents and inboxes: an insurance renewal notice that arrives by post, a passport expiry date nobody thinks about until a trip is booked, a warranty card filed away and forgotten, a subscription that renews on a card statement nobody scrutinises closely. None of these systems talk to each other, and there's rarely one person whose job it is to check all of them.

The consequences also aren't always obvious until they happen: driving uninsured because a renewal notice got missed in a pile of post, a family trip disrupted by a passport that expires mid-holiday, a warranty that lapsed the month before the thing it covered broke. None of these are expensive to prevent — they're just easy to forget, because nothing about them demands attention until it's already too late.

What renewal tracking for a household needs

The details that decide whether it actually gets used, or ends up as one more abandoned app.

Room for anything with a date, not just subscriptions

Insurance, vehicles, passports and other documents, and subscriptions are all genuinely different things that still need the same kind of tracking.

Simple enough that it actually gets used

A household tool that takes an hour to set up loses to whatever sticky note or app was there before it.

A warning that reaches whoever needs to see it

A car insurance renewal matters to whoever drives, not just whoever manages the household admin.

No card required to start

Testing out a new system for something as low-stakes as a subscription list shouldn't require handing over payment details first.

Alerts that arrive early enough to compare

Insurance and subscriptions are often worth shopping around before they renew — the warning needs to land with time to do that.

Shared, if more than one person manages the household

Two people splitting household admin both benefit from seeing the same list, rather than one person holding all of it.

How RenewKeeper covers each one

Room for anything with a date
Insurance, vehicle, document or ID, and subscription are all built-in categories, alongside a custom category for anything that doesn't fit.
Simple to set up
Adding an item takes a name, a category, and a date — nothing more is required to start.
Alerts that reach the household
A Space can be shared with another person, who receives its alerts automatically once invited.
No card required
The free plan needs no card and has no time limit, covering 10 items in 1 Space.
Early enough to compare
Alerts and the weekly digest are included on every plan, giving time to shop around before a renewal goes through automatically.
Shared household visibility
Both people managing a household can see the same Space, so a renewal isn't only visible to whoever happened to set the item up.

Who this is for

Households & couples

Insurance, subscriptions, and vehicle renewals split across two people, tracked in one shared list instead of one person's memory.

Individuals living alone

Passports, warranties, and policies that only get attention once a year, easy to forget without a nudge.

Anyone managing a relative's admin

Renewals for someone else's household, tracked from a distance without needing to be there to check the post.

Common questions

What is renewal tracking for a household?
It's a single list covering everything a household needs to renew — insurance, vehicle-related dates, passports and other documents, subscriptions — with alerts sent before any of them lapse, instead of each one living in a different drawer or inbox.
Can it track things like passports and warranties, not just subscriptions?
Yes. Document or ID and a general-purpose category cover passports, warranties, and similar items, alongside built-in categories for insurance, vehicles, and subscriptions.
Can two people in a household see the same list?
Yes. A Space can be shared with another person, who then receives its alerts automatically and can see everything in it.
Do I need to pay to try it?
No. The free plan needs no card and has no time limit, and covers up to 10 items in one Space — enough for most households' core renewals.
Will I get a warning early enough to shop around before something renews?
Alerts and the weekly digest are included on every plan and are sent ahead of the renewal date, leaving time to compare options before a policy or subscription renews automatically.
