Questions, answered
Will it return or extend a rental for me?
No. It only tracks due dates and costs. Returning, extending, or buying out a rental is always your own action on Chegg.
How far ahead does it warn me?
It flags any rental due within 7 days, so you have a full week's notice before a late fee could apply.
What happens after I return a book?
It reads your live rental list in Chegg each morning, so a returned book's card is cleared from Notion automatically.
