Cancel Macpaw: Easy Method
What is Macpaw
Company overview
MacPaw is a software company that develops macOS applications such as CleanMyMac and CleanMyMac X. Their products focus on system maintenance, cleanup, and performance tools for Mac users.
How MacPaw sells software
MacPaw sells licenses directly via the MacPaw Store and also distributes through third-party platforms such as Apple’s App Store and other vendors like Setapp or academic marketplaces.
Purchase channel affects how you manage subscriptions and refunds, because platform rules and MacPaw’s own policy differ.
How to cancel Macpaw
Cancel via MacPaw Store (web)
- Log into your MacPaw Account at the MacPaw website.
- Choose the product you want to cancel (for example, CleanMyMac or CleanMyMac X).
- Click "cancel subscription" and follow the on‑screen prompts to confirm cancellation.
- The app remains functional until the end of the paid period after cancellation.
- See MacPaw’s instructions: Cancel subscription (MacPaw).
Cancel via App Store or other platforms
- If you purchased through Apple’s App Store, you must cancel via Apple’s subscription management or Apple Support.
- For Google Play purchases, manage or cancel subscriptions in Google Play's subscription settings: Google Play subscriptions.
- Setapp or other vendors use their own cancellation and refund procedures; follow the vendor’s policy for cancellations.
What happens when you cancel
Access after cancellation
If you cancel a subscription bought from the MacPaw Store, the software typically remains active until the end of the paid billing period.
For platform purchases (App Store, Google Play), access rules follow the platform’s subscription model and may vary.
Automatic renewal and data
Cancellation stops automatic renewal at the next billing cycle; it does not usually delete your MacPaw account or stored settings automatically.
If you want account removal or data deletion, contact MacPaw support via their ticket form or email and request account/data removal explicitly.
Will I get a refund?
MacPaw Store refund policy
MacPaw offers a 30‑day money‑back guarantee for purchases made via the MacPaw Store, subject to eligibility and review.
- Refunds are not automatic; you must submit a refund request ticket to MacPaw for evaluation.
- See MacPaw’s refund guidance: Request a refund (MacPaw).
Platform refunds and exceptions
If you bought through the App Store, Setapp, or another platform, refunds are handled by that platform and MacPaw does not process those refunds directly.
Under New Zealand consumer law, faulty digital products may entitle you to a remedy (see the consumer rights section below).
Macpaw plans and pricing
Available plans (overview)
Pricing and plans vary by purchase channel and region. MacPaw’s site commonly lists prices in USD, while local marketplaces may show regional pricing.
Third‑party vendors or academic sellers may list prices in NZD.
Example pricing table
| Plan or seller | Price (NZD where known) | Billing period | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| MacPaw Store (official) | Varies | Varies | Official site typically shows USD; check account/checkout for local pricing. |
| App Store (Apple) | Varies | Varies | Apple displays local pricing in the App Store for your region. |

Your consumer rights in New Zealand
Consumer Guarantees Act (CGA)
Under New Zealand law, digital products that are faulty or do not match their description are covered by the Consumer Guarantees Act (CGA).
The CGA can entitle you to a repair, replacement, or refund if a digital product is defective.
Change of mind and seller policies
There is no automatic legal right to a refund simply for "change of mind" unless the seller’s policy offers one.
- A "no refunds" sign or policy cannot exclude your CGA rights for faulty goods.
- For non‑fault issues (e.g., change of mind), rely on the seller’s published refund policy.

Customer experiences
Positive feedback

Negative feedback

Some users report slower response times or generic support replies, occasionally requiring escalation to reach resolution.
See customer reviews: MacPaw reviews (Trustpilot NZ).
Documentation checklist
What to prepare for cancellations
- Order number or receipt from the MacPaw Store or vendor.
- Email address used for the MacPaw account or platform account.
- Subscription ID or product name (e.g., CleanMyMac X).
- Dates of purchase and charge details if disputing billing.
What to include in a refund request
- Clear statement of the request (cancel subscription, request refund, or both).
- Reason for the request and any supporting evidence (screenshots, error messages).
- Preferred contact information and any ticket numbers from prior support interactions.
Common mistakes
Assuming cancellation is automatic
Some users assume deleting the app or turning off updates cancels a subscription; it does not. You must cancel the subscription through the purchasing account or MacPaw account manager.
Contacting the wrong support channel
Customers sometimes contact MacPaw directly for App Store or Google Play refunds. Those refunds must be requested through the platform that handled the sale.
Always check which vendor processed your purchase before submitting refund or cancellation requests.
