How to cancel Pimeyes
Cancel via PimEyes website (official)

- Go to Account or Subscription settings and choose Terminate or Cancel subscription.
- Termination can be done unilaterally at any time; you remain entitled to use the service until the end of your current billing cycle.
- See official terms for details: PimEyes Premium Terms.
Cancel via mobile app stores (if applicable)
- iOS in-app subscriptions must be cancelled through iPhone Settings → Your Name → Subscriptions if the subscription was purchased via Apple.

- PimEyes warns there is no official app on the Apple App Store or Google Play; verify your purchase source before cancelling. See safety guidance: PimEyes: Protect yourself from scammers.
Cancel purchases from third-party sellers or resellers
- If you bought a code or subscription from a third-party reseller, contact that seller directly to request cancellation.
- Reseller listings commonly state “no refunds” and are not affiliated with PimEyes; keep receipts and seller communications.
- Example reseller listing (not official): GGSEL listing.
What happens when you cancel
Access and billing
Once you cancel an official PimEyes subscription, automatic renewal stops and you retain access until the end of the current billing cycle. Past-paid fees are generally not returned under the standard terms.
Account and data
Deleting your account may affect refund eligibility and remove your settings, alerts, and history. Keep copies of receipts and important screenshots before removing an account.
Will I get a refund?
Official PimEyes refund policy (key points)
- Refunds for PimEyes website subscriptions are limited to orders placed within the preceding calendar month relative to the refund request.
- Refunds are not available if you have performed any search queries, created alerts, or (for PROtect) have active PROtect Image or takedown orders.
- Deleting your account typically voids any refund eligibility.
Exceptions and third-party purchases
- There is no stated general 14‑day cooling‑off right in PimEyes policy; Singapore consumer law may provide remedies in certain cases, but PimEyes’ published terms prevail unless local law requires otherwise.
- Purchases from third-party resellers commonly state “no refunds” and are not endorsed by PimEyes; pursue refunds with the reseller first.
- Refer to PimEyes terms for full conditions: PimEyes Premium Terms.

Documentation checklist
Essential documents to gather

- Order ID, payment receipts, and bank/card statements showing charges.
- Screenshots of subscription status, searches performed, and any error messages.
Additional items for claims
- Copies of communications with PimEyes or the reseller (emails, chat logs).
- If purchased via App Store or Google Play, include proof of purchase from the App Store/Play Store.

Common mistakes
Deleting account before requesting refund
Users sometimes delete their account before asking for a refund, which often voids eligibility. Always retain account access until the refund outcome is confirmed.
Confusing purchase source
Another frequent error is assuming a charge is an official PimEyes subscription when it was purchased via a reseller or app store. Verify the purchase source before contacting support.
