Is there a better word for this sort of transaction (non-resellable, arbitrary cancellation of service at some unknown point in time by some entities)?

“License” seems too legal, and implies either a lifetime license or fixed term license, which is different than a “we’ll shut down game servers whenever we feel like it”

“Rent” already has a different meaning that is commonly understood.

Is there any suitable existing word? Maybe the awkward phrase “revocable at any time license”?
