How to cancel Kahoot

On the web (direct subscription)

To cancel a web subscription open your Kahoot! account settings and go to Billing.

• Sign in at your Kahoot! account.
• Navigate to Account settings > Billing > Manage subscription.
• Choose Cancel to stop the next renewal; you keep paid features until the billing period ends.
• No automatic refund is issued for the remaining period after cancellation.

On iOS (App Store)

Subscriptions bought through Apple must be cancelled through Apple, not Kahoot!.

• Open the App Store, go to your account, select Subscriptions and cancel the Kahoot! subscription.
• Or cancel via the Apple subscriptions web portal or device settings.

On Android (Google Play)

Subscriptions purchased via Google Play must be cancelled in Google Play’s subscription settings.

• Open Google Play, tap Menu > Subscriptions, find Kahoot! and cancel.
• Alternatively use the Google Play web portal to manage subscriptions.

What happens when you cancel

Access and billing

Cancelling stops future renewals but does not remove access immediately.

You retain paid features until the end of the current billing cycle after cancellation.

Data and account

Your account, quizzes and data remain available according to your plan and Kahoot!’s retention rules.

If you later re-subscribe, your content usually remains accessible under the same account.

Will I get a refund?

Standard refund policy

Consumers have a legal right to withdraw from a feature/service subscription within 14 days of purchase and receive a full refund if they cancel in writing.

• Make the request in writing (for example via Kahoot!’s support request form) within 14 days to claim a refund for eligible feature subscriptions.

See Kahoot!’s refund policy: Kahoot! refund policy.

Exceptions and third-party purchases

Content-based subscriptions (AccessPass, marketplace content) grant immediate access and are not refundable under Kahoot! policy.

• Downgrades or cancellations outside the 14-day period take effect at the end of the billing cycle and do not entitle you to a refund.
• If you purchased via Apple or Google, you must request refunds through those providers; Kahoot! cannot process them.

Your consumer rights in New Zealand

Cooling-off and withdrawal

Under New Zealand consumer law, digital subscriptions generally fall under the Fair Trading Act and Consumer Guarantees Act.

Consumers have a 14-day cooling-off period for services not fully delivered at time of purchase, aligned with Kahoot!’s 14-day withdrawal policy for feature subscriptions.

Quality, content and third-party purchases

Immediate-access digital content (e.g. AccessPass, marketplace items) is commonly exempt from withdrawal rights in e-commerce rules.

• Statutory protections still apply for unacceptable quality or not fit for purpose, which Kahoot!’s policy does not override.
• Refunds for purchases made via Apple or Google must be pursued through those providers’ channels.

Customer experiences

Positive feedback

Many users praise Kahoot! for being fun, engaging and intuitive, especially in classroom settings.

• Users highlight colourful visuals, ease of quiz creation and strong student engagement.
• Teachers and non‑technical users often report the tool is straightforward to learn and use.

Negative feedback

Common complaints include pricing concerns, limited free features and usability issues in some cases.

• Users report frustrations with subscription costs, missing monthly-only options and perceived paywalling of features.
• Some reviewers mention interface clutter, occasional glitches during live sessions and poor refund outcomes after cancellation.

Documentation checklist

Required information

• Account email address used to purchase the subscription.
• Order ID, subscription reference or transaction date (payment receipt where available).
• Platform used to buy (Web, Apple App Store, Google Play).

How to submit

• For web purchases: use Kahoot!’s support request form and include the items above.
• For Apple/Google purchases: use the respective provider’s refund or subscription support channels and provide relevant receipts.

Common mistakes

Mistakes during cancellation

A frequent error is attempting to cancel an Apple or Google Play subscription via Kahoot!’s web settings; those must be cancelled with the store used to purchase.

Another mistake is cancelling but not checking which account was charged (multiple accounts or emails can cause confusion).

Mistakes with refunds

Expecting a pro‑rata refund after cancelling mid‑billing cycle is common but usually incorrect; refunds are only available under specific conditions.

Missing the 14‑day written withdrawal window or not providing proof of purchase often invalidates refund requests.

Comparative recap

Summary table

Quick takeaways

• Cancel web subscriptions inside your Kahoot! account; cancel mobile purchases through the store used.
• Refunds are limited: 14‑day written withdrawal for feature subscriptions, no refunds for immediate-access content, and third‑party store refunds go via Apple/Google.

After cancelling

What to check

Confirm the cancellation in your Kahoot! account and keep any confirmation emails or screenshots for your records.

Verify the date your paid features will expire so you can export or back up any needed content before access ends.
