What happens when you cancel

Access after cancellation

When you cancel, your access typically continues until the end of any paid period already billed.

Access to member-only resources will end when your current subscription period expires.

Auto-renewal and billing

Cancelling stops future automatic renewals; it does not usually issue a retroactive refund unless covered by their refund policy.

If you cancel during a free trial, you should not be charged if cancellation occurs within the trial window.

Account data and collections

Your account and saved collections generally remain but access may be limited once the subscription expires.

Export or save important materials before your access ends if you need them offline.

Will I get a refund?

Refund policy

Lesson Planet offers a 45-day money-back guarantee following billing for annual payments.

To request a refund within 45 days of your annual payment, contact Member Success by email or phone as outlined in their help centre.

Free trial exception

If you cancel within the 10-day free trial period you will not be charged and no refund is required.

Ensure you cancel before the trial ends to avoid being billed.

How to request a refund

• Locate your billing date and receipt.
• Contact Member Success (email or phone) within 45 days of the annual charge.
• Provide purchase details and a reason if requested; follow any additional steps from support.

Your consumer rights in New Zealand

Consumer Guarantees Act (CGA)

Under New Zealand law, services must be provided with reasonable care and skill, and consumers may seek remedies if services fall short.

This can include cancellation of unused services or requesting refunds when quality or delivery fails to meet expectations.

Purchases via third-party platforms

Subscriptions bought through the Apple App Store or Google Play are subject to those platforms' refund policies and processes.

Consumers should follow App Store or Google Play procedures for cancellations and refund claims when purchases were made there.

How Lesson Planet's policies relate

Lesson Planet's 45-day money-back guarantee and web cancellation process provide protections consistent with consumer expectations in New Zealand.

If you encounter issues, raise them with Member Success and, if needed, reference NZ consumer protections when disputing unresolved claims.

Customer experiences

Positive feedback

Reference: Lesson Planet FAQ and a third-party review: Helping Moms Connect.

Reported issues

Some users report occasional irrelevant search results or dead links among returned resources.

These issues are typically noted as limitations rather than dealbreakers in user reviews.

Example: older user review.

Documentation checklist

What to have ready before cancelling

• Account email address and login details.
• Receipt or billing confirmation showing the purchase date and amount.
• Subscription type (Starter, Pro, Learning Explorer) and renewal date.

Optional items for refunds or disputes

• Screenshots of billing, membership page, or error messages.
• Evidence of attempted contact with support (email threads, timestamps).
• If purchased via App Store/Google Play, include platform receipt and order ID.

Common mistakes

Missing the trial deadline

A frequent mistake is not cancelling before the 10-day free trial ends, resulting in an automatic annual charge.

Set a calendar reminder a day before the trial expires to avoid unexpected billing.

Cancelling on the wrong platform

Another common error is attempting to cancel via the Lesson Planet website when the subscription was bought through the App Store or Google Play.

Always cancel through the platform used to purchase to ensure the subscription and renewals stop.
