Cancel Gusto: Easy Method
What is Gusto
Overview
Gusto is a cloud-based payroll, benefits, and HR platform designed for small and medium-sized employers. It provides payroll processing, tax filings, benefits administration, and employee self-service tools.
Why employers use it
Employers use Gusto to automate payroll runs, handle payroll tax filings, and centralise HR tasks. The service is managed by Gusto Capital, LLC, based in San Francisco, California.
How to cancel Gusto
Cancel from the Employer Account (web)
- Log in to your Employer Account on Gusto's website.
- Follow account settings or billing sections to find the cancellation option.
- Per the Employer Terms of Service (effective August 1, 2025), employers may cancel at any time via their Employer Account.
Cancel mobile subscriptions (App Store / Google Play)
- Apple App Store: Manage subscriptions on your iOS device or Mac under Subscriptions; cancelling stops future renewals but paid access continues through the paid period. See a guide such as The Verge.
- Google Play: Cancel via Google Play > Payments & Subscriptions > Subscriptions or at play.google.com. Uninstalling the app does not cancel the subscription; access continues until the end of the billing cycle.
What happens when you cancel
Access and account state
After cancelling via the Employer Account, your employer access is ended according to the account controls. Gusto may retain payroll and tax records as required by law.
Billing and renewal
Fees are not prorated; if you cancel mid-month you will be charged the full month's service fees per the Terms of Service.
Subscriptions started through the Apple App Store or Google Play will continue for the paid period after cancellation, but will not renew.
Will I get a refund?
Gusto refund policy
Gusto's Employer Terms of Service state that, unless explicitly stated otherwise, all Service Fees are non-refundable.
Cancellation does not automatically create a prorated refund; fees are non-refundable by default.
Exceptions and tax responsibility
- If a refund is issued by Gusto, the employer is responsible for reimbursing associated taxes.
- No general 14-day statutory cooling-off or refund period appears in Gusto's publicly posted policies.

Your consumer rights in Nigeria
General position
Gusto's public Terms of Service do not reflect a 14-day statutory refund or cooling-off right, and fees are generally non-refundable by default.
Local remedies
- If you believe you were unfairly charged or denied a lawful refund under Nigerian consumer protection law, consider contacting the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC).
- Filing a complaint with the FCCPC is an option for cross-border digital service disputes involving Nigerian consumers.
Customer experiences
Positive feedback
Some reviewers describe Gusto as having strong customer service and easy access to support, calling payroll setup and support helpful in certain cases.
Negative feedback
- Complaints include payroll accuracy problems, tax filing errors, unexpected charges, and delayed or refused refunds.
- Users on Trustpilot and Reddit report cases of being charged after cancellation, long refund delays, or abrupt account deactivation under discretionary TOS provisions.
Documentation checklist
Before you cancel
- Account owner login credentials and employer account email address.
- Recent billing statements or invoices showing charges and billing cycle dates.
- Records of any open payroll runs or tax filings to confirm completion.
If you need to dispute charges
- Copies of cancellation confirmation or screenshots showing cancellation attempts.
- Support ticket numbers, chat transcripts, or email correspondence with Gusto support.
- Bank or card statements showing disputed charges and dates.
Common mistakes
Assuming uninstall equals cancel
Uninstalling the Gusto mobile app does not stop a subscription purchased through the App Store or Google Play. Users who only uninstall remain billed until the subscription is cancelled in the store.
Expecting automatic prorated refunds
Many users expect prorated refunds after cancelling mid-cycle. Gusto's Terms of Service specify fees are not prorated and are generally non-refundable, so that expectation often leads to disputes.
