Cancel CapCut through the app or your payment method

CapCut subscriptions renew automatically, so cancellation stops future charges but does not refund money you have already paid. Where you cancel depends on how you signed up: through the CapCut app itself, through Apple's App Store, through Google Play, or through a web browser on a computer.

The fastest route is usually to cancel through the same place you subscribed. If you signed up on your phone through the app, cancel in the app. If you signed up through your Apple or Google account, cancel there instead — cancelling only in the CapCut app may not stop the recurring charge if your payment method is linked to your phone's account rather than CapCut's servers.

Key Takeaways

  • CapCut subscriptions renew automatically on the date you subscribed, so cancel before that date to avoid the next charge.
  • Cancel through the app if you signed up there, or through Apple/Google if you subscribed through your phone's app store.
  • Cancellation stops future charges when ready but does not refund the current billing period.
  • Check your email for a confirmation that the subscription has ended, since the app does not always show a clear cancellation message.
  • If you cannot find the cancellation option, contact CapCut support with your account email and subscription details.

Cancel CapCut on iPhone or iPad

On an Apple device, subscriptions are managed through your Apple ID, not through the CapCut app itself. Open the Settings app, tap your name at the top, then tap Subscriptions. Find CapCut in the list and tap it. Tap Cancel Subscription, then confirm the cancellation. Apple will send you an email confirming the date your subscription ends.

Do not rely on the CapCut app to show you that the subscription is cancelled. The app may continue to display "Premium" or "Subscribed" even after you have cancelled through Settings. Check your Apple ID settings again a few minutes later — the subscription should no longer appear in your Subscriptions list, or it should show "Expires on [date]" rather than "Renews on [date]".

Cancel CapCut on Android

On Android, open Google Play, tap your profile icon in the top right corner, then tap Payments and Subscriptions. Tap Subscriptions, find CapCut, and tap it. Tap Cancel Subscription and confirm. Google will send you an email confirming the cancellation.

Like Apple, Google Play does not always update the CapCut app when ready. Return to Google Play a few minutes later and check the CapCut subscription status again. It should show "Expires on [date]" instead of "Renews on [date]".

Cancel CapCut through a web browser

If you signed up for CapCut through a web browser on a computer or tablet, you may be able to cancel through your CapCut account settings. Go to capcut.com, log in with your email and password, and look for Account Settings or Subscription Settings. Not all CapCut accounts have a web-based cancellation option — if you do not see a subscription section, you will need to cancel through your phone's app store instead.

Some CapCut users sign up through a third-party service like Facebook or Google login. If you used one of these options, you may need to cancel through that service's account settings rather than through CapCut directly. For example, if you logged in with your Google account, cancel through Google Play as described above.

What happens after you cancel

Cancellation takes effect when ready, but you keep access to CapCut Premium features until the end of your current billing period. For example, if you subscribed on the 15th of the month and cancel on the 20th, you can still use Premium until the 15th of next month. After that date, the app reverts to the free version.

CapCut does not refund the current billing period, even if you cancel on the first day after your subscription renews. If you want to avoid being charged again, cancel before the renewal date. You can check your renewal date in your Apple or Google account settings — it will show "Renews on [specific date]".

If you cannot find the cancellation option

Some older versions of the CapCut app or certain account types do not display subscription settings where you expect them. If you have looked in the app settings and cannot find a Subscription or Premium section, try cancelling through your phone's app store instead (Apple Settings or Google Play), since that is where the actual payment method is linked.

If you still cannot cancel, contact CapCut support through the app or at their support website. Have your email address and the date you subscribed ready. Support can cancel the subscription on your behalf and may be able to process a refund if you cancelled within a few days of being charged, though refunds are not may provide.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I lose my videos if I cancel?

No. Cancelling the subscription does not delete your projects or videos. You can still open and edit them after cancellation, but you will lose access to Premium features like advanced filters, effects, and higher export quality. Your work remains in your account.

Can I get a refund for the current billing period?

CapCut does not refund current billing periods as a standard policy. However, if you cancelled within a few days of being charged, contact CapCut support with your receipt or transaction ID — some support teams will process a one-time refund. Apple and Google also have their own refund policies; you can request a refund through their app store settings within a limited window after purchase.

What if my subscription keeps charging after I cancelled?

Check your cancellation status in your Apple or Google account settings — the subscription should show "Expires on [date]" rather than "Renews on [date]". If it still shows "Renews", the cancellation did not go through. Try cancelling again, or contact your app store's support team with your order number. If charges continue after the expiration date, dispute the charge with your bank or credit card company.

Do I need to cancel the app itself?

No. Cancelling the subscription only stops the recurring charge. You can keep the CapCut app on your phone and use the free version. Deleting the app does not cancel the subscription — you must cancel through your app store settings or CapCut account.
