Certificates are free via certbot, so the host sounds very scammy to be charging for that. Most webhosts control panels just provide a wrapper around the free certs.
VPS's are great but do require a little linux expertise. I'm going to assume your dev set up some directives with static certs out of inexperience.
My recommendation would be move the reverse proxy directives they implemented over to Caddy, thats my preferred reverse-proxy since it has built-in auto-renewal and has a very simple config file format. It will handle all your domains and subdomains.
A billed out hour to do it would be less than your host wants for the wildcard (wildcard isn't appropriate in some cases either, browsers treat them differently)

Caddy,
is this one? https://caddyserver.com/

Exactly! it's so much cheaper hiring someone to fix it, but then it's not solving the root problem 😂 thus I would like to learn it myself:)

AI should be able to walk you through it too...
"I have have several websites hosted on a VPS but don't know how the developer configured them, SSL certs are not automatically renewing. Help me identify the existing reverse-proxy config and help me set up Caddy and move them to it"
