Your subscription cancellation rights in Nevada
Nevada has no general auto-renewal statute — but gyms and dance studios cannot auto-renew at all. The honest picture, and what protects everything else.
The short answer
Nevada is a no-general-statute state with one sharp exception: dance-studio and health-club contracts must state their term and may not contain automatic renewal provisions at all — a gym membership that quietly rolled over is, in Nevada, built on a clause the statute forbids. For everything else — streaming, apps, software — the protections are the federal ROSCA baseline, Nevada’s deceptive-trade-practices law, and your contract and records.

The honest map
Nevada has no general automatic-renewal statute for consumer subscriptions — a 2011 bill proposing one was never enacted — but its sector rule is striking: contracts for dance studios and health clubs (NRS 598.940–598.966) must specify the membership term and may not contain automatic renewal provisions at all, with violations treated as deceptive trade practices.
A general auto-renewal bill was proposed in 2011 and went nowhere; the position has been stable since. Guides that recite consent duties and renewal-notice rights for Nevada subscriptions are importing other states’ law — the pattern our no-statute guide is built to correct.
The club rule, used properly
For the covered sector the rule is stronger than most states’: not regulated auto-renewal but no auto-renewal. If a Nevada gym or dance-studio contract renewed you automatically, the clause itself conflicts with the statute, and a violation is a deceptive trade practice. Pair that with the practical steps in our gym playbook: written cancellation per the contract, proof of delivery, then the statutory point named explicitly in your dispute.
Everything else: the three familiar layers
ROSCA governs online subscriptions in every state — clear disclosure of recurring terms, informed consent, a simple mechanism to stop recurring charges. Nevada’s deceptive-trade-practices law (NRS Chapter 598) reaches misrepresented terms, charges after documented cancellation, and exits that exist on paper only, with the Attorney General and consumer-affairs machinery behind it. The contract governs the rest — which makes the renewal date and notice period you record at sign-up the operative protection.
The order to work in
1. Classify. Club contract? The no-auto-renewal rule applies — name it. Anything else? You are in the no-statute position.
2. Run the records discipline. Renewal dates noted the day you subscribe, cancellations in writing, confirmations kept, sign-up flows screenshotted for anything expensive.
3. Escalate on deception, not on rights that do not exist. A complaint citing misrepresentation or post-cancellation charging fits Nevada law; a complaint citing a renewal-notice right does not. Accuracy is what makes the complaint move.

Does Nevada have an automatic renewal law?+
Not a general one — a 2011 bill proposing it was never enacted. Nevada’s sector rule is the exception: dance-studio and health-club contracts must specify their term and may not contain automatic renewal provisions at all, with violations treated as deceptive trade practices.
My Nevada gym membership auto-renewed. Is that allowed?+
The statute forbids automatic renewal provisions in health-club and dance-studio contracts — so a rollover built on such a clause is worth challenging directly. Cancel in writing per the contract, keep proof, and name NRS 598’s club provisions in your dispute; the gym playbook covers the sequence.
What protects my streaming and app subscriptions in Nevada?+
The three layers that apply in every no-statute state: federal ROSCA for disclosure, consent and a simple stop mechanism online; Nevada’s deceptive-trade-practices law for misrepresentation and obstructed exits; and the contract plus your own records for everything else.
Where do I complain about a subscription company in Nevada?+
Nevada’s consumer-affairs machinery and the Attorney General handle deceptive-trade-practice complaints, and the FTC covers the federal layer. Complaints built on documented deception or post-cancellation charges are the ones that fit Nevada’s actual law.
