How do I cancel my Claude subscription?

Updated October 2026 · How we answer

Short answerYou can cancel Claude Pro anytime from your account settings under Billing or Subscription. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period.

How to cancel

Log in to claude.ai and click your profile icon in the bottom-left corner. Go to 'Settings' and then 'Billing' or 'Subscription'. You'll see an option to cancel your Pro plan. Click it and confirm.

If you subscribed through a mobile app (iOS or Android), you must cancel through the app store instead: on iPhone, go to Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions; on Android, open Google Play > Subscriptions. Canceling on the website won't stop app store billing.

  • Website: Settings > Billing > Cancel
  • iOS: Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions
  • Android: Google Play > Subscriptions
  • Confirm cancellation
  • Check for email confirmation

After canceling

Your Pro benefits remain active until the end of your current billing period. You won't be charged again, and your account will revert to the free plan. You can resubscribe at any time, though you may lose any promotional pricing.

Anthropic does not prorate refunds for partial months, so if you cancel mid-month, you'll still have Pro until the period ends. Make sure to download any files or conversations you want to keep, as free accounts have lower limits.

Common mistakes

  • Canceling on the website when you subscribed via the app store—this won't stop charges.
  • Expecting an immediate downgrade; you keep Pro until the end of the paid period.
