Cancel Freelancer: Easy Method
What is Freelancer
Overview
Freelancer is an online marketplace connecting freelancers and employers for projects, contests, and ongoing work.
The platform offers paid membership tiers, verification badges, and payment tools to manage projects and billing.
How the platform is used
Users create accounts to bid on projects, purchase upgrades, and receive payments through integrated systems.
Memberships and some services are paid; settings and billing are managed through the website account area.
How to cancel Freelancer
Cancel a web (website) membership
- Sign in to your Freelancer account and go to Membership Settings (Account > Settings > Membership).
- Choose the option to cancel your paid membership; confirm the cancellation when prompted.
- Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid period with no additional costs.
Stop automatic billing and other subscription routes
- First cancel your membership subscription via Membership Settings to stop renewals.
- Then remove your stored payment method: go to Payment & Financials (Account > Settings > Payment & Financials) and click the 'x' icon next to the saved card or PayPal entry.
- If you subscribed through the App Store or Google Play, cancel that subscription directly in the respective store because Freelancer’s documentation only shows web-based cancellation.
What happens when you cancel
Access and features
When you cancel a paid membership, you keep membership benefits until the end of your current paid billing period.
After the period ends, your account reverts to the free/basic tier and paid features are disabled.
Data, listings and payments
Your profile, project history, messages and portfolio remain in your account unless you delete them separately.
Existing milestone payments, ongoing projects, and disputed funds are governed by Freelancer’s project and dispute policies; these are not automatically refunded by cancellation.
Will I get a refund?
General refund policy and exceptions
You may request refunds for funds paid into your account, subject to Freelancer’s User Agreement and exclusions for milestone payments or certain fees.
Refunds are generally returned to the original payment method and dispute resolution applies to milestone funds.
Specific refund rules to note
- Freelancer Verified badge fees are non-refundable under any circumstances.
- Credit card deposits (funds added to your account) can be refundable within a timeframe that varies (often within one year; sometimes 4 - 6 months), depending on clearing and platform rules.
- PayPal deposits are refundable within one year; after that you may be able to request a payout instead of a refund.
Freelancer plans and pricing
Summary of known NZ pricing
Some membership and badge prices are listed in New Zealand dollars on the site; other standard membership tiers are available but not always shown publicly in NZD.
Platform fees such as project commissions and optional upgrades are separate and detailed elsewhere on the site.

Your consumer rights in New Zealand
Key legal protections
Under New Zealand consumer law (for example the Consumer Guarantees Act and Fair Trading Act), services must be of acceptable quality, fit for purpose, and accurately described.
Unfair or misleading representations may entitle consumers to remedies, refunds, or corrective action under NZ law.
Practical steps if you have a dispute
- Keep records of purchases, receipts and communication with Freelancer support.
- If you believe a service was misrepresented or a non-refundable policy conflicts with statutory rights, contact local consumer protection agencies for advice.
- For guidance, refer to New Zealand consumer protection.
Customer experiences
Positive feedback
Many users praise Freelancer’s support team for professionalism, responsiveness and helpful onboarding or verification assistance.
Users also report the platform is generally easy to navigate and that common billing or verification issues are efficiently handled.
Negative feedback
Some users report issues with automatic renewals, difficulties obtaining refunds, or delays in resolving billing disputes.
Other reported problems include withheld funds, withdrawal difficulties and intrusive verification requests; experiences are mixed across review sites and forums.
Documentation checklist
What to gather before contacting support
- Account username and registered email address.
- Transaction IDs, invoice numbers and dates for payments or subscriptions.
- Screenshots of billing entries, renewal charges, and membership settings pages.
Additional items that help a claim
- Support ticket numbers and copies of previous communication with Freelancer support.
- Evidence of attempts to cancel (screenshots of cancellation confirmation) and any bank or PayPal statements showing charges.
Common mistakes
Failing to cancel in the right place
Users sometimes try to remove their card without first cancelling the membership subscription; this can leave the subscription active and lead to unexpected renewals.
Always cancel the membership subscription in Membership Settings first, then remove payment methods in Payment & Financials.
Assuming app-store cancellation is automatic
If you subscribed via a mobile app, cancelling only on the website may not stop App Store or Google Play billing; those subscriptions often must be cancelled in the store.
Check your Apple or Google account subscriptions and cancel there if applicable to avoid further charges.
Comparative recap

| Item | Where to cancel | Refund likely? | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Membership (web) | Account > Membership Settings | Usually no pro‑rata refund; membership remains until period end | Cancel to stop renewal; no extra cost to cancel |

| Verified badge | Account settings / Verification area | No | Badge fees are non-refundable |
| Deposits (credit card / PayPal) | Request via Support | Possible within time limits (varies by method) | Credit card timelines vary; PayPal typically refundable within one year |
| App Store / Google Play subs | Cancel in App Store / Google Play | Refunds handled by the store | Freelancer site cancellation may not affect store subscriptions |
