grace period

A grace period is a limited period after a plan’s usual end date or a missed payment during which the plan can still be used before access ends.

In plain English

This is a brief extra window before access stops. It begins after the plan would normally end or after a payment is missed, and the plan can still be used only until that limited time runs out.

In context
