Is 'subscribe and save' clearly cancelable to reduce fear?

As an e-commerce business owner, I'm concerned about how customers perceive our 'subscribe and save' model. Many potential subscribers might hesitate because they fear being locked into a long-term commitment or struggling to cancel. I want to understand how to design a subscription program that feels flexible, transparent, and low-risk, ultimately reducing customer anxiety and increasing conversion rates for our recurring revenue model.
