How to Cancel Your Publlish Subscription
Learn how to cancel your Publlish Pro or agency plan subscription — step by step, what happens to your channels and scheduled posts after cancellation, and how to resubscribe.
Cancelling your Publlish subscription stops future billing and returns your account to the Free plan. This guide walks through the cancellation process, what happens to your content and channels, and what to check before you cancel.
How to Cancel
- Log into your Publlish account
- Go to Settings → Billing
- Find the Cancel Plan or Cancel Subscription option
- Follow the prompts to confirm cancellation
You'll typically be asked for a cancellation reason — this is optional feedback for the Publlish team.
After cancellation is confirmed, your paid access continues until the end of your current billing period. You won't be charged again after that.
What Happens After You Cancel
Your access: You retain full Pro or agency plan access until the end of the billing period you've already paid for. At the end of that period, your account reverts to the Free plan.
Your channels: Channels over the Free plan's limits will be locked. They won't be deleted — just locked until you resubscribe or disconnect extras. What happens when you downgrade →
Your content: All your posts, drafts, ideas, and scheduled content are preserved. Nothing is deleted.
Your scheduled posts: Posts assigned to locked channels won't publish after the downgrade. Posts on channels within the Free plan's limits will continue to publish.
Your team: Team access is unaffected unless the Free plan's seat limits are lower than your current member count — in which case some members may lose access.
Your analytics: Analytics data is preserved. Access to advanced analytics features depends on your post-cancellation plan.
Before You Cancel — Checklist
- [ ] Export any analytics data you need for records
- [ ] Download or note any scheduled campaign content you want to preserve
- [ ] Inform your team of the cancellation date
- [ ] If you're an agency, notify clients who have Publlish access
- [ ] Disconnect channels you no longer need (frees up the accounts before the downgrade)
Can I Resubscribe After Cancelling?
Yes — you can resubscribe at any time from Settings → Billing. Your previous content, channels (if still connected), and team structure will still be there. Your analytics history within Publlish will also be accessible again once you're back on a paid plan.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will I be charged if I cancel before my trial ends? No — Publlish's trial requires no credit card. If you haven't added payment details, there's nothing to charge.
Does cancellation take effect immediately? Your paid access continues to the end of your current billing period. The account reverts to Free at that point.
Can I get a refund when I cancel? Refund policies depend on your specific situation. Contact Publlish support to discuss refund requests — publlish.com/contact-us →
Will my social media accounts be disconnected when I cancel? Your social accounts won't be disconnected automatically — they'll either remain active (if within Free plan limits) or become locked (if over limits). You can disconnect them manually at any time. Disconnecting a channel →
What happens to posts scheduled after my cancellation date? Posts on channels that remain active (within Free limits) will still publish. Posts on locked channels will not go live.
I cancelled by mistake — what do I do? Resubscribe from Settings → Billing before your paid period ends to avoid any service interruption.
