A 11-step walkthrough with real screenshots from the live cancel flow.
Open Workspace settings → Plans, click Cancel plan under your active plan, type I understand in the box, then click the red Cancel plan button. Canceling disables auto-renewal — your plan stays active until the renewal date, then your workspace drops to the free plan. Chatbase doesn't state a refund policy for the current period.
Wondering if you're paying more than you used to? how subscription prices have changed since 2021.
See Chatbase's pricing, tiers, and difficulty score in one page. Chatbase ranks #53 of 101 by cancellation difficulty.
Sign in to your Chatbase dashboard. In the left sidebar, expand Workspace settings and click Plans. Your active plan appears in a card at the top with its monthly price and a Cancel plan button on the right.
Click View Features on the plan card to expand the full feature list — message credits, AI agents, members, integrations, and analytics. This is worth a glance so you know exactly what drops when the plan ends.
Click the Cancel plan button on your active plan card. A "Cancel Plan ?" confirmation dialog opens, explaining you'll lose your plan features at the end of the current billing cycle and that any add-ons stay active until that cycle ends.
The red Cancel plan button stays disabled until you type the exact phrase I understand into the confirmation field. Type it, and the button activates. Click it to confirm the cancellation.
Chatbase shows a "We're sorry to see you leave" survey with checkboxes (missing a feature, found a better product, unresolved issues) and a free-text box. This is optional — you can answer it or close it with the × in the corner. The cancellation is already recorded either way.
If you choose to answer, tick a reason and click Submit. If you'd rather not, click the × to dismiss it. Neither choice changes the outcome — your plan is already set to cancel at the renewal date.
Back on the Plans page, your plan card now shows an "Active until" badge with the renewal date — for example "Active until Mar 20, 2026". You keep full access until that date, after which the workspace automatically drops to the free plan so you aren't charged again.
If you still need Chatbase but want to pay less, downgrade rather than cancel. Per Chatbase's docs, a downgrade (say Standard to Hobby) takes effect immediately and you get a prorated credit for the unused time, applied to your new plan and future invoices. A cancel just disables renewal — it doesn't refund or credit the current period.
Extra AI agents, auto-recharge credits, custom domains, and "remove Powered by Chatbase" are add-ons billed on top of your plan. Canceling the plan leaves add-ons active until the end of the billing period, then removes them. Canceling an add-on on its own removes it immediately and credits your account for the remaining days — handle those from the Plans page.
Workspaces on an older "legacy" pricing package see an extra warning in the cancel dialog: the plan is no longer available, so once you cancel you cannot re-subscribe to it. If your legacy price is better than the current public plans, weigh that before canceling — you'd have to move to a current plan to come back.
After canceling you drop to the free plan. Chatbase deletes AI agents on the free plan after 14 days of inactivity. If you want to keep an agent's configuration or training data, export or document it before — or shortly after — the cancellation takes effect.
