You’ll need to click the gray “auto-renewal” link and turn off auto-renewal if you don’t want that option by default. And the color choice for the link is purposefully designed to make it less obvious. However, Bitdefender starts with auto-renewal on by default. You can easily see the word for it couched under the software purchase on the right: What we like here is that the company doesn’t hide the fact that auto renewal is in place. The bigger issue is with subscription auto-renewal. Previously, it attempted to push nearly a dozen different add-ons at checkout. Since our last review of the service, Bitdefender has reduced the amount of upselling it tries to do at checkout. You’re just not pushed into the costlier option at the outset. If you want to up your service to two or three years and cover more devices, you can do so quite easily. Instead of trying to force users into the more expensive options first, the company presents their lowest-cost option on the page. On the initial sign-up page, Bitdefender places you automatically at the cheapest-possible service package for Total Security: One year and up to 5 devices: READER DEAL: Save 60% on Bitdefender Total Security
