What is Runway
Overview
Runway is a cloud-based creative platform that offers AI-powered video editing, motion graphics, and content-generation tools for creators and teams.
The service runs on subscription plans and one-time credit purchases for generation tasks, and it is accessed via web, and mobile apps (App Store / Google Play).
Who uses it
Runway is used by individual creators, small teams, and professionals who need fast AI-driven editing and generation features.
Pricing and features vary by plan and store region; Singapore users commonly buy via the App Store with SGD pricing.
How to cancel Runway
Cancel on the web (direct subscription)
- Sign in at app.runwayml.com and open Settings → Billing.
- Choose Cancel plan → Continue to cancel, then follow the checkout/Stripe prompts to click "Cancel subscription" and confirm.
- Your access remains until the end of the current billing cycle after confirmation.
Cancel on iOS (App Store purchase)
- Open your Apple device Settings → Subscriptions → select Runway, then tap Cancel Subscription.
- Runway cannot cancel App Store subscriptions for you; refunds and cancellations for Apple purchases are handled by Apple.
Cancel on Android (Google Play purchase)

- Follow Google Play prompts to confirm cancellation; purchases through Google Play are managed by Google.
What happens when you cancel
Access after cancellation
When you cancel a paid plan, access typically remains until the end of the paid billing cycle.
No immediate loss of access is expected after a successful cancellation on web, App Store, or Google Play.
Renewal and billing
Cancelling stops future renewals but does not automatically produce prorated refunds for the remainder of the paid term.
For web purchases, fees already paid are generally non-refundable under Runway’s terms.
Data and credits
Your projects and any remaining credits usually remain in the account but check your account data retention settings and export important work before service changes.
Unused generation credits may be considered in refund requests at Runway’s discretion (see refund section).
Will I get a refund?
General refund policy
Runway states that refunds are granted at its sole discretion, handled case-by-case, and are not guaranteed.
Web terms indicate purchases are generally non-refundable and cancellations take effect at the end of the paid term.
Common exceptions and timeframes
- If a plan was purchased or renewed within the last 30 days and is unused or nearly unused, Runway may consider a refund for the plan or unused credits.
- Mistaken plan selections and clearly unused credits are examples where refunds may be possible.
App Store and Google Play refunds
Runway cannot issue refunds for purchases made through Apple; refund requests for App Store purchases must be made through Apple.
For Google Play purchases, you must follow Google Play’s refund process; Runway cannot process those refunds directly.

Your consumer rights in Singapore
Key local considerations
Digital content and subscription purchases often have limited cooling-off rights once the service is accessed or a subscription begins.
Runway’s stated policies emphasize non-refundable fees for web purchases, but they may consider refunds in certain 30‑day cases.
Practical steps to protect your rights
- Keep receipts, order dates, and screenshots of usage to support refund requests.
- If you purchased through Apple or Google, use their refund channels first since the platform controls those transactions.
If you need to escalate
If Runway declines an eligible refund and you believe consumer law supports your claim, you can contact your payment provider (bank/credit card) to dispute the charge.
For persistent issues, consider seeking advice from a local consumer protection authority or legal advisor about digital-subscription rights in Singapore.
Customer experiences
Positive feedback
Some users praise Runway’s easy-to-use interface and accessibility for non-technical creators, noting the platform accelerates creative workflows.
These positive points are commonly mentioned by users who value quick iterations and AI-assisted tools.
Negative feedback
Reported complaints include low-quality outputs not matching prompts, unexpected credit consumption, perceived high cost, and slow or unhelpful support responses.
Some users also report frustration with cancellations and refund attempts, especially for purchases through external platforms.
Takeaway
Expect a mixed set of experiences: Runway can be powerful for certain workflows but customers should monitor credit usage and confirm cancellation/receipt records.
Document issues promptly to support any refund or dispute requests.
Documentation checklist
What to collect before contacting support
- Account email and subscription ID (if available).
- Receipt or transaction record showing date, amount, and payment method.
- Screenshots of subscription page, billing screen, or in-app purchase receipt.
Additional useful evidence
- Usage logs or timestamps showing the subscription was unused or nearly unused (for 30‑day refund considerations).
- Records of cancellation attempts and any correspondence with Runway or the platform (Apple/Google).
- Details of remaining generation credits if you seek a refund for unused credits.
Common mistakes
Assuming all purchases are refundable
Many users expect automatic refunds after cancelling, but Runway’s terms state that web purchases are generally non-refundable and refunds are discretionary.
Always check the exact refund policy and submit evidence promptly if you believe you qualify.
Trying to cancel App Store or Google Play purchases through Runway
Users sometimes contact Runway support to cancel App Store subscriptions; Apple and Google control those transactions and must be used instead.
For App Store refunds, use Apple’s purchase history and refund tools; for Google Play, use Google’s refunds flow.
Not saving receipts or proof
Failing to keep receipts, timestamps, and screenshots makes it much harder to get a discretionary refund or to dispute a charge with your bank.
Capture evidence immediately if you plan to request a refund or dispute unexpected charges.
