Automated PlanetHoster Renewal Reminders

Every Monday, WebRun opens PlanetHoster, reads hosting plan and domain expiry dates, posts a Telegram reminder for anything due within 30 days, and sends a Twilio text if a renewal is due within 3 days, so nothing lapses without warning.

In short

How do I make sure my PlanetHoster hosting or domains never lapse?

WebRun checks your PlanetHoster hosting and domain expiry dates every Monday, posts a Telegram reminder for anything due within 30 days with its renewal price, and sends a Twilio text if a renewal is due within 3 days. It never renews or pays on its own, so nothing lapses and nothing gets charged without you reviewing it first.

  • No hosting plan or domain lapses without a 30 day warning
  • Urgent renewals within 3 days get a text, not just a chat message
  • Renewals stay a manual, reviewed step every time

Questions, answered

Will it renew my hosting or domain automatically?

No. WebRun only reads expiry dates and reminds you. Renewing and paying stays a manual step you take in PlanetHoster.

Why get both a Telegram post and a text?

Telegram covers the 30 day heads up so you have time to plan. The text is reserved for anything due within 3 days, when it needs immediate attention.

What if something was already renewed?

WebRun reads the live expiry date each week, so anything already renewed shows a later date and drops off the reminder automatically.

Put this on autopilot.
