You will learn
Learn how to cancel your subscription payments for email and profiles, SMS, or both, as well as how to close your Klaviyo account.
If your email or SMS plan is simply too large or does not fit your current needs, you can instead downgrade your plan.
Canceling:
- Stops future payments, so you’re not billing after the current cycle.
- Keeps your account and data intact, allowing you access to your account in the future.
- Turns off any features in your account.
- Flows will stop sending.
- Scheduled campaigns will be canceled
- Sign-up forms will be set to draft and no longer show on your website.
Closing your account:
- Deletes all data within the account.
- Removes all access to the account.
Before you begin
Before you cancel or close your account, note the following:
- Only account Owners or Admins can cancel an account or channel
- This method does not apply to those who:
- Are on a manually billed plan
- Have a contract that is greater than 1 month
To check if you are manually billed, head to your Account Overview in Klaviyo. To cancel your subscription when being manually billed, please contact our Support team.
Before you make any changes to your subscriptions, we recommend checking out the following resources, which can help you get the most out of using Klaviyo. As our users tell us, sometimes a few key settings or a single strategy can be a total game-changer. These six resources can help you transform your growth with the tools that are already at your fingertips.
- Getting started with Klaviyo
- Guide to email deliverability
- Developing a content calendar
- Creating an abandoned cart flow
- Guide to list cleaning
- Advanced targeting webinar
As you proceed to canceling your Klaviyo subscriptions, we recommend that you also reference our article on Migrating off of Klaviyo. This resource will explain how to properly turn off Klaviyo features that you no longer need as well as transfer key data to your next service provider (if applicable).
