What happens when you cancel
Access after cancelling
When you cancel, Gizmo typically stops future payments but keeps your access active until the paid period ends.
You can continue using subscription features for the remainder of that billing cycle.
Auto-renewal and account state
Auto-renewal is turned off at cancellation. Your account remains and any saved data usually remains available unless you delete it separately.
If you later re-subscribe, account content and settings may be retained depending on Gizmo's data policy.
Will I get a refund?
Gizmo refund policy (voluntary)
Gizmo offers a 14‑day money‑back guarantee for the first subscription period. To request a refund, email [email protected] within 14 days of purchase.
If you cancel on the same day as purchase, a full refund is given. Cancellations within the 14‑day window may receive a partial pro‑rated refund (deducting service used).
Exceptions and limitations
- No refunds are provided after 14 days except where statutory law requires otherwise.
- Additional charges, policy violations or non‑compliance may disqualify a refund.
- Refunds for purchases made through app stores may be subject to the store's refund process - contact the App Store or Google Play if applicable.

Your consumer rights in New Zealand
Relevant law
New Zealand consumer protections are governed by the Consumer Guarantees Act (CGA) and other consumer laws. The CGA provides remedies for faulty or misrepresented goods and services.
How the law applies to digital subscriptions
- Digital subscriptions may not always fall under CGA guarantees in the same way as physical goods.
- Gizmo's 14‑day voluntary refund policy does not override statutory rights under the CGA.
- After the 14‑day window, refunds are at the provider's discretion unless the service is defective or misrepresented under law.

Documentation checklist
What to collect before you cancel
- Account email and username used for Gizmo.
- Order receipt, invoice or proof of payment and purchase date.
- Device type (iOS, Android, or Web) and app version if applicable.
Evidence to support refund or dispute
- Screenshot of your subscription in Settings or the store subscription page.
- Any error messages, logs or screenshots showing faults or missing features.
- Copies of communications with support and timestamps.
Common mistakes
Canceling the wrong place
Many users cancel on the Gizmo website but forget to cancel via the App Store or Google Play if they originally subscribed there.
If you subscribed through an app store, check the store subscription area instead of only the Gizmo web Settings.
Missing refund timeframes
Waiting beyond the 14‑day voluntary refund window is a frequent issue; Gizmo’s policy requires contacting support within that period for the money‑back guarantee.
Also keep records of cancellation and refund requests to avoid disputes over timing.
