Documentation checklist

What to prepare before cancelling

• Your Hatch account email and password.
• Proof of purchase: app store receipt or Hatch.co order confirmation.
• Subscription details: plan name, billing date, and last payment amount.

Supporting documents for refund requests

• Screenshots of receipts or billing statements from Apple/Google/Hatch.co.
• Order number or transaction ID for web purchases.
• Clear explanation of the reason for refund and any supporting correspondence with support.

Common mistakes

Cancelling in the wrong place

Users often try to contact Hatch support to cancel App Store or Google Play subscriptions; these must be cancelled through the respective store.

Always check which platform processed your payment before attempting cancellation.

Expecting automatic or prorated refunds

Cancellation does not automatically generate prorated refunds; access typically continues until the end of the paid period with no prorated refund.

Assume refunds for store-managed subscriptions must be requested from Apple or Google, not Hatch.
