What happens when you cancel

Access after cancellation

After cancelling a paid subscription, you typically retain access until the end of the current paid billing period.

This applies to App Store, Google Play and web subscriptions unless otherwise stated on your purchase receipt.

Renewals and future charges

Cancellation stops auto-renewal so you are not charged for the next period if cancellation is completed in time.

For App Store subscriptions, cancel at least 24 hours before renewal to avoid the next charge.

Account data and records

Your account data (profiles, chat history, receipts) may remain on Askavet’s systems according to their privacy policy and terms.

If you want data removed, request account deletion through the website or contact support for guidance.

Will I get a refund?

Refunds for consultations and digital services

Telehealth, specialist or other digital consultation fees are generally non-refundable once the service has been delivered, except where required by law.

Askavet’s policy disclaims refunds for delivered services but does not exclude legal consumer rights.

Refunds for physical products

• Unused physical products (Askavet Meds, Woopf, Purrz, Xtallion) in original packaging may be returned within 30 days.
• Refunds are issued to the original payment method, minus shipping unless the fault lies with Askavet.
• Allow up to 10 business days for the refund to appear after processing.
• Askavet refund policy reference: Askavet Refund Policy.

Exceptions and statutory rights

There is no explicit 14-day New Zealand refund right mentioned in the policy.

The policy states it does not limit rights under applicable consumer-protection laws, so statutory rights in New Zealand may still apply.

Common mistakes

Assuming one-off payment

Many customers report believing a small one-time fee was being charged when they were enrolled in a recurring subscription.

Always check the subscription terms in the app store listing or the checkout page before confirming payment.

Not cancelling in the right place

Cancellations must be done through the original purchase channel (App Store, Google Play, or web account).

Attempting to cancel in the app without going through the App Store or Play subscription panel can leave the subscription active.
