Cancellation Match: Easy Method
What is Match
Match is an online dating service and mobile app that lets users create profiles, browse matches, and communicate with other singles. It offers free browsing features alongside paid subscriptions and add-ons intended to increase visibility and messaging options.
The platform is operated by Match Group and is used in many countries; features, pricing, and support channels can vary by region and by whether you subscribed directly or through an app store.
How to cancel Match
- Via web/desktop/mobile web/app: Sign in, go to Account Settings → Manage Subscription → Subscription Status → Deactivate to turn off auto‑renewal (you keep access until the period ends). To delete a membership entirely, use the cancel/delete membership options in account settings; note deleting hides your profile/photos but Match retains account data. See Match Help: Canceling.
- If you subscribed through the Apple App Store: cancel via Apple’s subscription settings (App Store → profile → Subscriptions → Match → Cancel). See your App Store subscription management or the Match instructions at match.com.
- If you subscribed through Google Play: cancel in the Play Store (Play Store → Subscriptions → Match → Cancel). For details, see the Match subscription page at match.com.
- If you prefer a written request, send a cancellation notice to Match Group’s mailing address and keep proof of delivery (registered mail recommended; address below).
What happens when you cancel
When you deactivate or cancel auto‑renewal on Match, your subscription will not renew at the next billing date but you typically retain full access until the end of the already‑paid period. Deactivation is not the same as deleting your account - deleting or closing a membership usually hides your profile and photos but Match may retain account data according to its policies.
If you cancel through Apple or Google, those stores control the subscription lifecycle; cancellation stops future renewals but access generally continues until the store‑controlled period expires. Deleting the Match app from your device does not cancel a subscription from Apple or Google.
Will I get a refund?
Match’s published policy is that purchases and subscriptions are generally non‑refundable and there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods. Specific, limited statutory exceptions exist: in certain U.S. states there is a three‑business‑day right to cancel with refund (must cancel by midnight of the third business day after subscribing). Refunds for purchases made through the Apple App Store or Google Play must go through Apple or Google, not Match. For more detail, see Match’s subscription and membership pages at match.com and the cancellation help article at help.match.com.
There are region‑specific policies (for example, some UK guidance allows a 14‑day cooling‑off period for first‑time website/mobile web purchases), but refunds are not guaranteed and depend on the store, local law, and timing. If you believe you are entitled to a refund under local consumer law, you will need to raise that claim with Match or the store that processed the payment.
Match plans and pricing
| Plan / Item | Typical price |
|---|---|
| Free / Basic access (browse, limited messaging) | Varies |
| Standard / Monthly membership | Varies |
| Premium / Multi‑month plans (3, 6, 12 months) | Varies |
| Add‑ons (Boosts, Love Notes, Incognito) | Varies |
Your consumer rights in Canada
Match’s publicly posted policies do not list a Canada‑specific refund right; they state no refunds except where required by law. Canadian consumers are protected by federal and provincial consumer protection laws, which can include cooling‑off periods or other remedies for online purchases depending on the province.
If you are in Canada and believe you received unfair billing, check the consumer protection rules for your province, keep documentation of the purchase and cancellation attempts, and consider contacting your payment provider to dispute unauthorized or unfair charges. You can also contact your provincial consumer protection office for guidance; this is not legal advice, so consult a lawyer if you need formal legal assistance.
Customer experiences
User experiences are mixed. Some people report successful outcomes and positive matches - anecdotally, former users have shared long‑term relationships that started on Match. However, many online reviews and forum posts cite negative experiences: difficulty cancelling subscriptions, unexpected or continued charges after cancellation, challenges getting refunds, reports of fake or inactive profiles, and poor responsiveness from customer support. For examples and discussions see community posts and review sites such as Reddit, consumer reviews on Trustpilot, and older reviews on Sitejabber.
Documentation checklist
- Account email and username; order or subscription confirmation email and receipt
- Screenshots of subscription settings showing status or cancellation buttons
- Proof of cancellation (confirmation email, in‑app screenshots, or store cancellation page)
- Dates of subscription start, renewal, and cancellation attempts; transaction IDs
- If using App Store/Google Play, the store receipt and subscription management screenshots
- If sending written notice, a copy of the letter and proof of registered mail delivery
Common mistakes
Common errors include assuming deleting the app cancels the subscription (it does not), canceling the Match account instead of turning off auto‑renewal (or vice versa) without understanding the difference, and failing to check whether the subscription was billed through Apple or Google rather than directly through Match. Other frequent issues are not saving a cancellation confirmation, waiting until after renewal to cancel and then expecting an automatic refund, and contacting the wrong support channel (store vs. Match) for refund requests.
Comparative recap
| Method | Refund | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|
| Website / Match app (direct subscription) | Generally no; refunds only where required by law or Match policy | Low |
| Apple App Store subscription | Refunds handled by Apple (request via Apple Support) | Low - Medium |
| Google Play subscription | Refunds handled by Google Play (request via Google Support) | Low - Medium |
| Written/mail cancellation to Match Group | Generally no; may provide delivery proof for disputes | Medium - High |
After cancelling
After you cancel, save any confirmation emails or screenshots, watch your bank or card statements for subsequent charges, and check that access ends at the expected date. If you are charged after cancellation, contact Match support and the payment processor used (Apple, Google, or your card issuer) promptly and provide your documentation.
