What happens when you cancel
Access after cancellation
When you cancel a Kapwing web subscription, you retain access to paid features until the end of the current billing cycle.
Auto‑renewal and stopping charges
Kapwing auto‑renews subscriptions by default. Cancelling before the renewal date prevents the next charge; cancelling after renewal does not automatically produce a refund.
Will I get a refund?
Official refund policy
Kapwing's policy states they generally do not issue cash refunds after a subscription purchase; the free tier is intended for trial prior to upgrading.
Full policy: Kapwing refund policy.
Exceptions and billing disputes
- Billing disputes or incorrect charges: contact Kapwing support within 30 days of the bill date for possible credit or adjustment (not a cash refund).
- If technical issues prevent use of paid features and cannot be resolved within 2 business days, Kapwing may offer prorated account credit instead of a cash refund.
- In‑app store purchases follow the App Store / Google Play refund processes and policies; contact the platform for those refunds.

Your consumer rights in Singapore
Legal framework
Singapore's consumer protection frameworks (for example, the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act) generally treat digital services as provided "as‑is".
Remedies and escalation
- If a service fails to perform as advertised, you may have grounds to seek a remedy or dispute charges.
- If Kapwing does not resolve a billing or performance dispute, consider disputing the charge via your card issuer or seeking mediation through appropriate Singapore channels.
Customer experiences
Positive feedback
Many users praise Kapwing for fast self‑service content creation, useful editing tools, and helpful AI features like transcript editing.

Documentation checklist
What to gather before contacting support
- Account email and workspace name used for the subscription.
- Order receipt, billing date, and transaction ID from your payment method or app store.
- Screenshots of billing, subscription status, and any error messages or failed project exports.
Supporting evidence for disputes
- Logs or timestamps showing failed attempts to use paid features.
- Correspondence history with Kapwing support and case reference numbers.
Common mistakes
Attempting to cancel web subscriptions through the app store
Users sometimes try to cancel web subscriptions via the Apple App Store or Google Play; those app stores only control in‑app purchases, not Kapwing web subscriptions.
Waiting until after renewal
Many customers forget to cancel before the renewal date and then expect an automatic refund. Kapwing's policy typically does not provide cash refunds for missed cancellations.
