Cancel App Store / Google Play digital subscriptions
- If you bought a digital edition via an app, you must cancel through the App Store (iOS) or Google Play (Android).
- Open your device’s account/subscription settings and cancel the Cosmopolitan subscription there; Cosmopolitan cannot cancel these directly.
- Use Apple or Google support pages for step-by-step device instructions.
What happens when you cancel
Access to current and remaining issues
When you cancel, access depends on the product type and where you bought it.
For print, delivery of already-mailed issues continues; undelivered issues may be refunded if eligible.
Automatic renewal and billing
Cancelling stops future renewals but may not reverse charges already processed for the current period.
Check your account confirmation or contact customer service if billing continues after cancellation.
Account and personal data
Cancelling a subscription typically retains your account for records, but access to subscriber-only content will end per vendor terms.
For data or privacy questions, check the publisher’s privacy policy or contact support via the portal.
Will I get a refund?
Print subscription refunds
For mailed subscriptions, a refund is usually issued for any remaining issues that have not yet been mailed at the time of cancellation.
- This effectively provides a pro-rata refund for undelivered issues.
Digital subscription refunds and exceptions
Digital subscriptions purchased via App Store or Google Play follow those platforms’ refund policies; Cosmopolitan cannot directly refund those purchases.
- Based on available policies (e.g., Cosmopolitan Australia), refunds are generally not provided for magazines already delivered, except where required by law.
- Refunds may be offered for undelivered issues or for technical/processing errors; outcomes vary by case and jurisdiction.
How to request a refund
- For print: contact customer service through the subscription portal and provide your invoice/order details.
- For App Store/Google Play purchases: request a refund through Apple or Google support using your purchase receipt.
- Keep copies of invoices, order IDs, and correspondence to support any refund claim.

Many customers try to cancel a digital app subscription via the Cosmopolitan website, but App Store and Google Play subscriptions must be cancelled in the device account settings.
Not keeping confirmation or cancelling too late
Some users expect immediate refunds but do not save cancellation confirmations or miss the renewal cut-off, making refunds harder to obtain.
