  • End of the billing cycle: The subnet will remain active until the end of the ongoing billing cycle, and all upcoming invoices for the terminated subnet will be cancelled. Select this option if you decide not to lease the subnet for the upcoming month.   
  • Immediately: The subnet will be terminated in the upcoming 30-60 minutes, and any pending invoices will be cancelled. Select this option if you wish to cancel the subnet that is being refunded or returned to the Marketplace for other reasons.  

Note: If you terminate the subnet earlier than the subnet’s expiration date, the remaining paid amount will not be returned automatically.

Stopping the announcement 

Once your leased subnet is terminated, you will be informed about it via an email. Afterward, please make sure that the subnet is not announced by your service provider (ASN) to avoid using it without service renewal. If the subnet is announced without the service renewal, an additional invoice will be generated to cover the subnet’s usage without renewal.

Please refer to our Terms of Service for more information about subnet termination. If you have questions, contact us via the IPXO Helpdesk.
