Set up automatic renewal by phone

Call the customer service number located on the back of your AAA Membership card. Ask the representative to set up automatic renewal on your account. Keep your membership number and payment information ready.

Visit your local AAA branch and speak directly with a customer service representative. Bring your membership card and preferred payment method.

Why is automatic renewal the best choice for retirees?

As you spend more time traveling locally or regionally, dependable protection becomes a top priority. Automatic renewal supports a low-maintenance lifestyle by offering three distinct advantages.

Safeguard your AAA Membership benefits

Losing access to your member benefits during an emergency creates unnecessary stress. Enrolling in automatic renewal guarantees that your coverage remains active exactly when you need it. You retain uninterrupted access to 24/7 roadside assistance, including battery jumps, tire changes, lockout assistance and towing. You also secure continuous access to money-saving discounts at thousands of retailers, restaurants and hotels.

Simplify your daily memory load

Managing multiple priorities and paper bills takes time. The "set it and forget it" nature of automatic renewal eliminates the need to remember your annual renewal date. You never have to search for a mailed billing statement, write a check or manually enter credit card details online each year.

Prevent accidental lapses in coverage

Vehicle emergencies often happen at the worst possible moments. A dead battery or a flat tire can easily disrupt a weekend getaway, especially if you are away from home on an extended road trip. Automatic renewal prevents accidental lapses in your coverage, ensuring help is always just a phone call away. You’ll never face the frustration of needing emergency roadside service only to discover your membership expired a few weeks prior.

Enjoy a worry-free retirement with continuous protection

Retirement should be about enjoying the journey, not managing administrative tasks. Enrolling in automatic renewal allows you to simplify your expenses while locking in the dependable roadside coverage you trust. Choose this convenient billing option today, and drive with confidence knowing your protection will never unexpectedly expire.
