# Extend a subscription

Use the **Extend** functionality available in the **Subscription info** area to prolong the lifetime of a subscription or to reduce the period of time it can be used by a customer.

When the subscription lifetime settings are updated using the **Extend** functionality, these will take precedence and override per-product configuration.
