Does HomeAgain charge a yearly fee?

However, if you decide to forego those benefits and not renew the membership, rest assured that your pet’s information will remain in the HomeAgain database!
What happens when a microchip expires?
When a microchip scanner is passed over the pet, the microchip gets enough power from the scanner to transmit the microchip’s ID number. Since there’s no battery and no moving parts, there’s nothing to keep charged, wear out, or replace. The microchip will last your pet’s lifetime.
Do you have to pay to keep microchip active?
Microchip registration is FREE. All the paperwork and all the information on the microchip company web sites says you have to pay about $20 a year to register and keep the information up to date. This is not true.

Will the microchip expire? The microchip will have an expiry date on the packaging but this is purely for implantation purposes and not an expiry date for the function of reunification.
Do microchips go out of date?
Do microchips run out?
Microchips are hardwearing and should last for your pet’s lifetime.
Do vets automatically check for microchips?
Vets don’t automatically check for a microchip, so you’ll want to let them know if you want them to take a look and see if your pet has one or not. For that matter, only nine states consistently check for microchips when they come into possession of a stray animal.
