Cancel Wattpad: Easy Method
What is Wattpad
Overview
Wattpad is a global online platform and mobile app for reading and writing stories, connecting authors and readers through user-uploaded content.
Users can read free stories with ads, buy or subscribe for ad-free features, and publish their own work for community feedback.
Service model
Wattpad offers free access, optional in-app subscriptions (Premium/Premium+), and purchases handled through app stores or web billing.
Subscriptions are managed by the platform where you paid (App Store, Google Play, or Wattpad web/PayPal).
How to cancel Wattpad
App Store (iOS)
- Open your iPhone or iPad Settings.
- Tap your name at the top, then Subscriptions.
- Select the Wattpad subscription and tap Cancel Subscription.
- Note: Subscription auto-renews unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the billing period ends.
Google Play (Android)
- Open the Google Play Store app and tap your profile icon.
- Choose Payments & subscriptions > Subscriptions.
- Select Wattpad and tap Cancel Subscription.
- Note: Cancel at least 24 hours before renewal to avoid the next charge.
Web / PayPal
- Log in to Wattpad on the web and go to Settings > Billing/Subscription/Manage account to cancel if available.
- If you cannot cancel online, contact support@wattpad.com to request cancellation.
- Note: Some users report support intervention is required when self-service fails.
What happens when you cancel
Access after cancellation
After cancellation you typically keep access to paid features until the end of your current billing period.
Once the paid period ends, Premium features and benefits are removed from your account.
Renewal and billing
Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled before the renewal cutoff (usually 24 hours before billing).
For iOS and Android, billing is managed by Apple or Google Play, not directly by Wattpad.
Account data and content
Cancelling a paid subscription does not delete your Wattpad account or your published stories and reading lists.
If you want account deletion, contact Wattpad support or use account settings where available.
Will I get a refund?
General refund policy
Wattpad generally does not offer refunds if cancellation occurs after the billing cycle starts or after a paid period has begun.
Refund outcomes can vary based on platform rules (Apple, Google, PayPal) and timing of the request.
Platform-specific refund steps
- Apple App Store: After cancelling, go to App Store > profile > Purchased, find the Wattpad purchase, use Report a Problem to request a refund. Processing ~7 - 14 working days.
- Google Play: After cancelling, go to Google Play > Payments & subscriptions > Purchase history, select the transaction and request a refund. Processing ~7 - 14 working days.
- Web/PayPal: If you paid via PayPal or web billing, contact Wattpad support (support@wattpad.com) and PayPal if needed to request reversal.
Legal exceptions in Nigeria
- Under the FCCPA 2018, blanket "no refund" clauses are void; consumers may be entitled to refunds if services are not delivered as agreed or are defective.
- If Wattpad or a platform fails to provide contracted features, you may have a right to a proportionate or full refund under Nigerian law.

Your consumer rights in Nigeria
Legal framework
The Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Act (FCCPA) 2018 governs consumer rights in Nigeria for digital and physical goods.
The FCCPA imposes obligations on suppliers and protects consumers from unfair terms and misrepresentation.
Key consumer rights
- Right to cancel advance services or subscriptions, subject only to a reasonable cancellation charge (Section 120(1)).
- Right to a full refund if a product or service is defective, unsafe, misrepresented, or not as agreed (Section 122).
- "No refund" policies are void and unenforceable under the Act (Sections 129 and related judicial decisions).
- Service providers must deliver as agreed or face refund obligations; failure entitles consumer to proportionate or full refund (Section 130).
Relevant case law
- Patrick Chukwuma vs Peace Mass Transit Ltd - court struck down a no-refund policy for delayed service and awarded a refund plus damages.
- Edem Ewa Ekeng & Anor vs Wakanow.com Ltd - court held no-refund clause invalid and ordered a refund for a failed air ticket purchase.
Customer experiences
Positive feedback
- Users praise Wattpad for enabling writers to publish stories and engage with like-minded readers.
- Community features and discovery of new authors are often cited as strong points.
Negative feedback
- Technical issues: missing notifications, glitches, and inaccurate read/vote tracking.
- Security/privacy concerns: reports of data leaks or identity-theft alarms among some users.
- Subscription inconsistencies: Premium benefits sometimes fail to transfer across devices or platforms.
- Ad experience: reports of excessive ads and ads inserted per chapter, disrupting reading.
- Spam/scam content: prevalence of bot comments or promotional spam reported by users.
What to take from reviews
Many users enjoy Wattpad’s social and creative benefits but advise caution with subscription management and account security.
Keep receipts and screenshots if you experience technical or billing issues to support refund or dispute requests.
Documentation checklist
What to gather before contacting support
- Account email or username used on Wattpad.
- Receipt or proof of purchase from Apple, Google Play, PayPal, or Wattpad billing.
- Subscription ID or transaction ID from your purchase history.
- Screenshots showing billing, subscription status, and any error messages.
Where to send documents
- For Wattpad web billing: contact support@wattpad.com with your documents attached.
- For App Store/Google Play purchases: have the store receipt ready and follow the store refund process after cancelling.
Common mistakes
Timing errors
Waiting until after the renewal date is a common mistake; many users miss the 24-hour cutoff and are charged for another period.
Always cancel at least 24 hours before the renewal to avoid being billed for the next cycle.
Platform confusion
Users sometimes try to cancel in the Wattpad app when the subscription is billed through Apple or Google Play.
Remember that iOS and Android subscriptions must be cancelled via the App Store or Google Play account, not inside the Wattpad app.
