FTC Guardian Educational Mini Webinar Series

Summary

Back in the day, subscriptions were generally limited to magazines or newspapers. 

Today, the subscription (recurring revenue) model has exploded in the online space. The explosion has been good for online business, but now regulations are evolving at an unprecedented rate. And the new developments require very specific steps and disclosures, such that partial compliance may not be enough to avoid a significant enforcement action, not only by the FTC, but also from state attorneys general.

Recent new developments by the FTC, California, and Colorado have created a combination of new requirements for businesses that rely on the recurring revenue model, and the related compliance risk is huge. Here’s what you’re now up against:

• FTC Enforcement Policy Statement (Effective 10-22-21),
• California Auto-Renew updates (Effective 7-1-22),
• Colorado Auto-Renew Law (Effective 1-1-22).

The compliance risk, particularly for small businesses, is increased by the fact that the FTC and state regulators have determined that enforcement of the new requirements is a relative high priority.

Here’s how FTCGuardian.com can help. We’ve put together an educational webinar that will help you understand the scope of these new recurring revenue requirements, what they mean, and what you need to do going forward.
