Cancellation Business Insider: Easy Method
What is Business Insider
Business Insider is a global news publisher focused on business, markets, technology and related topics. It offers a mix of free reporting and paid membership or subscription tiers that unlock ad‑free reading, exclusive articles and newsletters.
How to cancel Business Insider
Cancellation depends on how you originally subscribed: directly on the Business Insider website, through Apple’s App Store on iOS, or through Google Play on Android. Follow the steps below that match your purchase method. If you can’t sign in or you used a third‑party promotion, see the "After cancelling" section for next steps.
- Web (businessinsider.com): Sign in, go to your My Subscription or Account / Membership page, click “Cancel Subscription” and follow the prompts. You keep access until the end of the billing cycle.
- Apple App Store (iOS): On your iPhone or iPad open Settings → Your Name → Subscriptions → Business Insider → Cancel Subscription.
- Google Play Store (Android): Open the Google Play app → Profile icon → Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions → Business Insider → Cancel Subscription.
What happens when you cancel
When you cancel, Business Insider typically stops future automatic renewals but leaves your paid access active until the current billing period ends. Your account and reading history remain available according to Business Insider’s account and data retention practices. Cancelling does not necessarily delete your profile - if you want account removal, contact support or follow the site’s account‑deletion procedure.
Will I get a refund?
Business Insider’s stated policy is that payments are non‑refundable. That means refunds are generally not issued for cancelled subscriptions or unused time. Exceptions are rare and may be made at the publisher’s sole discretion in cases such as clearly demonstrated billing errors or platform‑specific refund rules. In Canada, provincial consumer protection rules or platform (Apple/Google) policies may provide limited remedies in specific circumstances, but there is no automatic statutory right to a refund for digital subscriptions unless the product is defective or another specific legal rule applies.
Business Insider plans and pricing
| Plan | Price (CAD) | Period | Features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monthly subscription (via iOS App Store) | C$15.99 | Monthly | Access to articles and e‑newsletter, auto‑renewable |
| Quarterly subscription (via iOS App Store) | C$36.99 | Quarterly | Access to articles and e‑newsletter, auto‑renewable |
| Annual subscription (via iOS App Store) | C$134.99 | Annual | First‑year price as listed, auto‑renewable |
Your consumer rights in Canada
In Canada, merchants generally set their own refund policies for digital content and subscriptions. There is no broad statutory right to a refund for digital subscriptions except in cases where a product is defective or where a provincial consumer protection law imposes a specific requirement. If you believe a charge is unauthorized, incorrect, or the service was not provided as advertised, you can raise the issue with the merchant and, if needed, pursue a chargeback or complaint through your payment provider, credit card issuer or a provincial consumer protection agency. Always review the seller’s published terms before subscribing.
Customer experiences
Online reviews show a mix of experiences, with a substantial number of negative complaints on some review sites reporting issues such as unexpected or higher charges than the initial offer and difficulties cancelling trials or subscriptions. Many negative reports reference problems with billing and only partial or no refunds. At the same time, many subscribers successfully cancel via the website or app stores without issue; the difference in outcomes often reflects the subscriber’s purchase path (direct vs. third‑party) and whether documentation of the transaction is available.
Documentation checklist
- Account email and username used to subscribe
- Order confirmation or receipt showing purchase date and amount
- Last billing statement or bank/credit card charge showing the transaction
- Screenshots of subscription status, cancellation confirmation, or error messages
- Device details (iOS/Android or web) and date/time of cancellation attempt
Common mistakes
Common mistakes include cancelling the wrong account (for example, a second email address), assuming cancellation takes effect immediately instead of at the end of the billing period, and not cancelling the subscription through the same platform used to purchase (web vs. App Store vs. Google Play). Another frequent issue is expecting an automatic refund after cancelling a renewal - Business Insider’s policy is generally no refunds - so verify the billing cycle and keep your confirmation screens and receipts as proof.
Comparative recap
| Method | Refund | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|
| Web (businessinsider.com) | No (payments generally non‑refundable) | Low |
| Apple App Store (iOS) | No (Apple handles refunds; Business Insider policy is non‑refundable) | Low |
| Google Play Store (Android) | No (Google handles refunds; Business Insider policy is non‑refundable) | Low |
After cancelling
After you cancel, keep a copy of the cancellation confirmation and monitor your account and bank statements for any unexpected charges. If you subscribed through the website and need the subscription removed or refunded, contact Business Insider customer service; if you used Apple or Google, follow their in‑platform refund request processes. Helpful links: Business Insider subscription page (businessinsider.com/subscriptions), Apple support for managing subscriptions (Apple subscription support), and Google Play subscriptions help (Google Play subscription support). If you believe a charge is fraudulent, contact your bank or card issuer promptly to dispute the transaction.
