Cancellation Paddle: Easy Method
What is Paddle
Paddle is a commerce platform that handles billing, payments, tax, compliance and subscription management for software and digital goods sellers. Paddle acts as the invoicing and payment facilitator between buyers and sellers, providing checkout, receipt management and support for refunds and cancellations on behalf of merchants.
For Canadian customers this typically means Paddle processes the payment, issues invoices, and enforces the invoiced consumer terms that govern cancellation and refund rights for purchases made through Paddle's web checkout.
How to cancel Paddle
- Confirm where you purchased: if the subscription or purchase was started via Apple App Store or Google Play, cancel through the respective platform (for Apple use reportaproblem.apple.com; for Google Play use the Google Play support pages).
- For purchases invoiced/processed directly by Paddle (web checkout), contact Paddle as soon as possible - consumers have a 14‑day right to cancel an initial purchase and must contact Paddle at least 48 hours before a subscription billing date to prevent automatic renewal. Use Paddle’s support channels or send a written notice.
- If you prefer a formal notice, send registered/certified mail addressed “Attention: Cancellation Department” to Paddle.com Market Ltd., Judd House, 18‑29 Mora Street, London EC1V 8BT, United Kingdom. Include your name, account email, invoice or order number, date of purchase and a clear request to cancel (and request refund if applicable).
- Keep copies/screenshots of the support request, any chat transcripts, and proof of posting for registered mail. Ask for a confirmation of cancellation and a refund reference if one is issued.
What happens when you cancel
When you cancel a Paddle-processed subscription, cancellation typically prevents future renewals; access to the service often continues until the end of the paid period unless the seller or Paddle specifies otherwise. For one‑off purchases cancelled within the applicable window, Paddle processes the cancellation and will initiate any applicable refund.
If the purchase was through the App Store or Google Play, Paddle cannot cancel or refund that purchase - you must use the platform’s cancellation/refund process. Paddle and the seller may retain certain account data for operational, legal or tax reasons; ask for details when you cancel if data retention or account deletion is a concern.
Will I get a refund?
Paddle provides a 14‑day right to cancel an initial purchase and obtain a full refund; Paddle will reimburse payments without undue delay using the original payment method. For subscriptions, Paddle may grant refunds within 14 days of the last renewal at its discretion, but refunds for unused subscription periods are not guaranteed under Paddle’s standard terms.
There are important exceptions: once digital content has been downloaded, streamed, accessed or the consumer has otherwise begun to benefit from the product, the statutory right to cancel and obtain a refund may not apply. Refunds may also be refused in cases of suspected fraud, abuse or manipulative behaviour, although consumer rights remain if the product is faulty or not as described. When a seller issues a refund via their Paddle dashboard, refunds generally take 3 - 5 working days for card payments and up to 48 hours for PayPal.
Paddle plans and pricing
| Plan | Price | Period | Features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pay-as-you-go (standard rate) | 5% + $0.50 (USD) per transaction | Per transaction | No monthly fee; includes global payments, tax, billing, fraud, compliance |
| Custom / enterprise pricing | Negotiated (volume‑discounted) | Per transaction or contract terms | Custom service levels, potentially lower rates, dedicated support |
Your consumer rights in Canada
Canadian consumer protection varies by province and by contract type. There is no single federal 14‑day right for all digital goods; some provincial rules (for example, Ontario’s Consumer Protection Act) provide specific cancellation windows for certain contracts, and other protections cover misrepresentation, defects or unfair practices. Paddle’s 14‑day cancellation policy for invoiced consumers is consumer‑friendly and in many cases exceeds provincial minima.
However, consistent with Canadian and international practice, once digital content has been accessed, downloaded or consumed, the right to cancel may not apply. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled before the next billing date, so it’s important to cancel in the required timeframes to avoid charges.
Customer experiences
Many users report positive experiences with Paddle: fast, straightforward refunds and cancellations handled via online support or an AI chatbot, with prompt communication and resolution for accidental purchases. These reviews highlight speed and helpfulness in routine cases.
At the same time, some customers report difficulty obtaining refunds after subscription renewals or encountering delays or denials, especially where platform rules (App Store, Google Play) or seller policies complicate the matter. A minority of reviews raise concerns about trial-to-subscription transitions and disputes over refund eligibility.
Documentation checklist
- Invoice or order number and purchase date
- Account email used for the purchase
- Subscription ID (if applicable) and billing cycle date
- Payment method (card type and last 4 digits) and receipt or bank statement excerpt
- Screenshots of the purchase confirmation, product access, or any misleading descriptions
- Copies of chat transcripts or support emails and proof of registered/certified mail (if sent)
Common mistakes
Common errors include attempting to cancel through Paddle when the purchase was made through Apple App Store or Google Play - those platforms must be used for cancellations and refunds in that case. Waiting too long to request cancellation (missing the 14‑day window for a one‑off purchase or the 48‑hour pre‑billing deadline for subscriptions) is another frequent issue.
Other mistakes are failing to provide invoice/order details, assuming unused subscription time will automatically be refunded, and not retaining confirmation or proof of cancellation. For formal disputes or when a prompt resolution is required, not sending registered/certified mail to the Cancellation Department (and keeping proof of postage) can reduce leverage.
Comparative recap
| Method | Refund | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|
| Contact Paddle support (web/invoiced purchases) | Possible within 14 days; subscriptions discretionary | Easy - Medium |
| Cancel via Apple App Store or Google Play | Handled by platform; depends on their refund rules | Medium |
| Registered/certified mail to Paddle (formal notice) | Possible and creates a formal record; helps if dispute arises | Medium - Hard |
After cancelling
After you cancel, keep all confirmations and reference numbers. Expect refunds (when approved) to be processed back to the original payment method; typical timing is 3 - 5 working days for card refunds and up to 48 hours for PayPal, though bank posting times may vary. If you do not receive confirmation or a refund in a reasonable time, follow up with Paddle support and include your documentation checklist items.
