AI Summary
This bill requires businesses that offer recurring subscription or membership services to provide customers with at least 24 hours of advance notice before charging them for these services. The legislation applies in addition to existing federal regulations and will go into effect on July 1, 2025. The key purpose of the bill is to give consumers more transparency and control over automatic recurring charges by ensuring they receive a notification at least one day before a subscription or membership fee is processed. This advance notice would allow customers to review the upcoming charge, potentially cancel the service if desired, or ensure they have sufficient funds in their account to cover the recurring payment. The bill aims to protect consumers from unexpected charges and provide them with an opportunity to manage their recurring financial commitments more effectively.
