What happens when you cancel

Access and renewal

After cancellation your subscription will not renew at the next billing date. You typically retain access to paid features until the end of the paid period.

Data and account

Cancelling a subscription does not automatically delete your Runkeeper account or activity data. Your account and stored activities generally remain unless you request deletion.

Confirmations and timing

You should receive confirmation of cancellation by email or in-app. Keep screenshots or confirmation messages until you verify the renewal has stopped.

Will I get a refund?

Official refund policy

Refunds for web and Google Play purchases are handled on a case-by-case basis and are not guaranteed. Contact Runkeeper support to request consideration.

For purchases through the Apple App Store, refunds must be requested directly from Apple because Runkeeper has no access to iTunes/App Store transactions.

How to request a refund

• For Web & Google Play: email [email protected] with your account email, purchase date, and receipt or order number.
• For Apple purchases: visit Apple’s support site or use your purchase history in the App Store to request a refund from Apple.
• Include screenshots, order IDs, and a clear explanation to help speed evaluation.

Runkeeper plans and pricing

Plans

Notes on pricing

Exact NZD pricing is not published by Runkeeper. Runkeeper lists USD prices (for example USD $11.99/month or USD $39.99/year).

The App Store or Google Play will calculate the NZD equivalent at purchase using their pricing tiers and exchange rates.

Your consumer rights in New Zealand

Relevant laws

Runkeeper’s published policies do not state a statutory 14-day cooling-off refund right for New Zealand consumers. Refunds are treated on a discretionary, case-by-case basis.

Recommended actions under NZ law

• Consider your rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act or other NZ legislation if the service is faulty or misrepresented.
• If you believe statutory rights apply, retain receipts and correspondence and consider contacting New Zealand consumer protection authorities for guidance.

Customer experiences

Positive feedback

Some users report that the free version meets their needs and recommend the app for basic activity tracking and route mapping.

Negative feedback

• There are reports of data loss after certain app updates and of poor or slow support responses.
• Some users have experienced unexpected deletion of activity history and recommend exporting data elsewhere as a precaution.

Documentation checklist

Required documents

• Account email address used with Runkeeper.
• Purchase receipt or order number (App Store/Google Play receipts or web invoice).
• Screenshot or confirmation of cancellation attempts and any confirmation emails.

Optional supporting items

• Google Play order (GPA) number for Android purchases.
• Screenshots showing missing features, data loss, or billing issues to support a refund claim.
• Exported activity data if you wish to retain a local copy before requesting deletion.

Common mistakes

Mistakes when cancelling

Many users assume cancelling the app removes the subscription; uninstalling the app does not cancel a subscription. Always cancel via the platform where you purchased it.

Example: deleting the app from your phone but leaving an active subscription in the App Store or Google Play will still incur charges.

Mistakes with refunds and data

Assuming Runkeeper can refund App Store purchases is a common error; Apple handles those refunds. Also, not exporting data before requesting deletion can lead to permanent loss.

Example: users who report deleted activity history often regret not keeping a backup export beforehand.

Comparative recap

Summary table

Key differences

Web cancellations are done on runkeeper.com and Runkeeper can directly stop renewal from the account. App Store purchases are controlled by Apple and require Apple support for refunds.

Google Play purchases are managed through Google Play; Runkeeper can assist with information but billing control and some refunds remain with Google.

After cancelling

Next steps

• Keep confirmation of cancellation and check that the subscription does not renew on the next billing date.
• Export your activity data if you want a personal copy before requesting account deletion.
