How do I cancel my subscription?
Note: If you're on a free trial plan, there's no need to cancel your subscription. It will expire automatically at the end of the trial period, and you will not be charged.
If you no longer need your Winston AI plan, you can cancel your subscription quickly through the dashboard. After cancellation, your current plan remains active until the end of your billing cycle. Follow the steps below to end your subscription.
Step 1: Navigate to “Manage Subscription”
Log in to your Winston AI account.
In the left-hand menu, scroll down to the Billing section and click on Manage subscription.
You will be taken to a page that displays:
Your current plan (e.g., “Essential AI Plan”)
Your usage details (monthly credits, remaining top-ups, etc.)
Subscription plan pricing, billing period, and renewal date
Step 2: Locate the “Cancel Subscription” button
On the Manage Subscription page, you will see several options at the top:
Cancel Subscription
Pause Subscription
Change Plan
To proceed with cancellation, click on the Cancel Subscription button.
Step 3: Confirm your cancellation
A confirmation prompt typically appears, asking if you are sure you want to cancel. The prompt may include details such as:
The date when your subscription will officially end
Any remaining credits or features you’ll still have access to until the end of the billing cycle
Review the details, then confirm the cancellation.
Important: After confirming, you will receive a confirmation email indicating that your cancellation has been scheduled. If you don't receive it, please check your inbox spam folder.
Step 4: Verify your cancellation
Once the cancellation is scheduled, you will still have access to your Winston AI features until the last day of your current billing period. On that final day (the end of your billing cycle), your subscription will officially end, and you’ll receive a second confirmation email notifying you that your plan has been canceled.
If you change your mind before the final day, you have to option to un-cancel your subscription, by clicking on "Uncancel subscription".
