    Cancel recurring subscription setup

    Recurring subscription can be cancelled:


     

    1. If your subscription was setup on 10 April 2017 or later:
      1. Login with your username and password.
      2. Go to your Account page.
      3. Click on the red button ‘Cancel subscription’.
    2. If your subscription was setup before 10 April 2017:

    Switching from recurring subscription to fixed period.

    Users whom wish to switch from a recurring subscription to a fixed period non recurring subscription will have to cancel their recurring subscription first. After that they can subscribe again and opt for a fixed term plan.

    The remaining period of a canceled recurring plan will not overlap with the start of the fixed plan. So if there is still a week remaning on a cancelled recurring plan the new fixed period plan wil start at the end of the cancelled recurring plan.

    All invoices created via Braintree payments can be downloaded in your Account page.
