What happens when you cancel

Access after cancellation

When you cancel a monthly subscription, access remains active until the end of the current billing period.

For annual subscriptions, access typically continues until the paid term expires unless a refund and immediate termination are agreed.

Renewal and auto-renew

Most digital subscriptions are auto-renewing; cancelling stops future renewals but does not usually prorate or refund past charges.

Make cancellations well before the renewal date to prevent an unwanted charge.

Will I get a refund?

Monthly subscriptions

Monthly subscriptions generally do not receive refunds; you keep access until the billing cycle ends.

This is standard for web-managed monthly plans unless an exception is granted by customer service.

Annual subscriptions and exceptions

Annual subscriptions are eligible for a full refund if cancelled within 14 days of payment.

After 14 days, refunds are generally not provided though access continues until the term ends.

App-store refunds

Payments made through the App Store or Google Play are subject to Apple’s or Google’s refund rules; refunds are not guaranteed.

Contact Apple or Google directly for purchase disputes made through their stores.

Common mistakes

Timing and renewal errors

Waiting until after the renewal date to cancel often results in an unavoidable charge for the next term.

Set calendar reminders to cancel at least 24 hours before renewal for App Store subscriptions.

Wrong cancellation channel

Attempting to cancel via the website for a subscription purchased through the App Store or Google Play will usually not stop platform billing.

Always cancel in the same store where the purchase was made (App Store, Google Play, or website account).
