A license-renewal management apparatus, connected to an image forming apparatus and a license management server, includes: a storage unit that stores an identifier that identifies the image forming apparatus associated with payment information about whether usage charge for the software has been paid; a notification receiving unit that receives a notification of expiration of the license from the image forming apparatus; and a renewal-method setting unit that, on receiving the notification, causes automatic renewal of the license for the software installed onto the image forming apparatus to be stopped.
