Alternatively, you may use your own system to lead the customer to the extend subscription page by using the Chargebee extend subscription API call .

The feature is designed to let the customer quickly extend their subscription for another term by the click of a button. Hence, the extension happens for the same number of billing cycles and with the same billing interval as specified in the plan-level billing settings (any changes made to the plan at the Subscription level are not applied). Also, if the number of billing cycles in the Plan was configured as "Forever", the subscription is only extended for one cycle.
