How To Cancel Canva Step-by-Step

Before you cancel Canva, you should know that you can pause your subscription in case you plan on using the tool again. 

You should cancel your subscription at least a day before the next billing cycle to avoid paying for the following month’s subscription. Take these steps to discontinue your Canva plan in your browser:

1. Log into your account.
2. If you’re on mobile, go to the home screen and tap Menu, then Settings.
3. If you’re on a computer, go to the homepage and click on Account settings.
4. Select Billing & plans.
5. Find your plan and select the ellipsis symbol.
6. Select the Request cancellation option.

After canceling, you can keep using your Canva subscription plan until the end of the billing period. Your existing designs and Brand Kit won’t be deleted—you can use them when you subscribe to Canva Pro or Canva for Teams again.
