Quick answer

Wix plans can't be cancelled in the Wix app. In a web browser, sign in and open Premium Subscriptions, click the three-dot More Actions icon next to your Premium plan, choose Cancel plan, click Cancel Now, give your feedback and click Cancel Now again. After your first 14 days that only turns off auto-renewal: the plan runs to its expiration date, then the site moves to a free wixsite.com address with Wix ads. Yearly and multi-year plans are charged up to three weeks before they expire, so cancel before the date under Upcoming payment. Domains, business email and paid apps renew separately, so cancel each one too. Wix's cancel help page has the details.

Step-by-step instructions

  1. Open Premium Subscriptions in a web browser

    Wix says plans can't be cancelled in the Wix app, so use a browser on a computer. Sign in to the Wix account that bought the plan, then go to Premium Subscriptions in your Wix account (the button on this page opens it). The page lists every paid service, the Premium plan, domains, business email and apps, each with an Upcoming payment date and a Status. Note the plan's Upcoming payment date: auto-renewal has to be off before then.

  2. Click More Actions next to your Premium plan, then Cancel plan

    Find the row that says Premium plan, with your plan name under it, and click the round three-dot More Actions icon at the end of the row. Choose Cancel plan. The same menu holds Unassign plan and Upgrade plan. Leave both alone: Wix says unassigning a plan does not cancel it, and an upgrade keeps you paying.

  3. Click Cancel Now in the pop-up

    Wix's help says to click Cancel Now in the pop-up to confirm. A Wix forum member who pasted the box in 2025 quoted it as listing what happens to your site: a free Wix domain, Wix branding, and lower storage and bandwidth limits. Those changes come when the plan ends. After your first 14 days, cancelling only turns off auto-renewal, and Wix says the plan stays active until the end of the current subscription period. Within the first 14 days of a new plan, it ends at once and you get a full refund.

    Heads up: The same paste says these changes "will occur immediately". After the 14-day refund window they don't: the plan runs to its expiration date. An r/WIX member who asked whether the warning meant an immediate cancel was told: "It's just a scary message, cancel freely".

  4. Give your feedback, skip any renewal offer and click Cancel Now

    Wix then asks why you're leaving. Its help says to confirm the cancellation by clicking Cancel Now after providing your feedback, so pick a reason and click Cancel Now again.

    Heads up: Some r/WIX members say Wix offered a discount on the next renewal at this point ("It will ask you why, then offer the discount for the next renewal"), while others say no offer appeared. A discounted renewal is still a renewal, so take it only if you meant to stay another term.

  5. Check that the Status says Auto renew off

    Back on Premium Subscriptions, Wix's help screenshot shows a cancelled plan with an AUTO RENEW OFF badge and a Turn On link in the Status column, and "Auto renew off" next to the end date under Upcoming payment. That's your confirmation, so take a screenshot of it. If the menu then shows no Cancel plan, that's not a failed cancel: an r/WIX member who asked about exactly that was told "you just need to have auto renew off" and the plan ends with the period. To undo it before then, click Turn On.

  6. If this applies to you

    Cancel the domain, business email and apps separately

    Wix says cancelling your site plan "does not cancel any domain, business email, or app subscriptions", and each renews on its own schedule: domains and business email up to 30 days before they expire, paid apps on the expiration date. All of them are in the same Premium Subscriptions list. For a domain, click More Actions, Cancel domain, select Cancel auto renew and click Submit; the domain stays yours until its term ends. For business email, click More Actions, then Cancel subscription, and follow the prompts; the mailbox works until the end of the period. For a paid app, click More Actions, Cancel App, select Cancel auto renew and click Cancel now. Wix says domains and Google Workspace business email are non-refundable. If you keep the domain, it disconnects from your site when the plan expires.

  7. If this applies to you

    If you can't find Cancel plan

    It's a common complaint on r/WIX. One member wrote that before a multi-year renewal "There was no option anywhere to cancel the renewal". Check three things first. The Status column: if it already says AUTO RENEW OFF, there's nothing left to cancel. The account: Wix's billing help says to "make sure you are signed in to the account which contains your site plan", so sign in with the account that paid. The device: the Wix app can't cancel plans, so use a browser. If the option still isn't there, contact Wix Customer Care before the Upcoming payment date and keep screenshots of the page. Another member who got through: "It is oddly placed and you have to go through strange menus in your dashboard, but you can cancel."

  8. If this applies to you

    Know what the alternatives on Wix's cancel page do

    Wix's cancel help puts its alternatives before the steps: switching to a monthly billing cycle, hiring a Wix Partner, its SEO checklist, moving the plan to another site or account, and switching to another plan. None of them stops the billing. Change Billing Cycle, in the same More Actions menu, starts the new cycle when the current one ends, so a yearly plan switched to monthly keeps billing every month after that. Some r/WIX members use it as a bridge while they move their site elsewhere, but it's still a subscription you have to cancel later.

  9. If this applies to you

    Decide what happens to the site before the plan ends

    When the plan expires, the site stays online on a free wixsite.com address with Wix ads, and its content isn't deleted. If you don't want it public, Wix says to unpublish it or hide it from search engines. Cancel before you delete: Wix says to cancel or unassign the plan first, then delete the site. One r/WIX member who trashed their website said Wix "still charged me for months afterwards", for a business email they hadn't cancelled. If you want to leave Wix entirely, you can close your account as soon as auto-renew is off on everything and any outstanding charges are paid, without waiting for the plan to expire. Closing an account can't be undone.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I be charged after canceling Wix?

Not for the plan, if auto-renew is off before its Upcoming payment date. The catch is timing. Wix charges yearly and multi-year plans "up to 3 weeks prior to your plan's expiration date" and monthly plans on the expiration date, and its terms ask you to cancel "at least twenty (20) days prior to the expiration" because cancellation "may take a few days". So cancel as soon as you know, and go by the date in the Upcoming payment column rather than your purchase anniversary. One r/WIX member found out the hard way: "Turns out they renew 19 days early." Wix sends reminder emails starting 30 days before a payment. A 2- or 3-year plan renews for the same length, and anything bought on sale renews at the standard rate. Domains, business email and apps bill separately. A Wix Team reply on Wix's forum adds that a plan with auto-renew off counts as active until it ends, so you can't remove the card from your account before then.

Can I get a refund from Wix?

Only in the first 14 days of a new plan. Wix offers a 14-day money-back guarantee on first-time Premium and Studio plan purchases, monthly or yearly: cancel within 14 days and the plan ends immediately with a full refund to the payment method you used, which Wix says can take up to 45 business days. It doesn't cover renewals or an upgrade of a plan you already have, and Wix's terms say that after the refund period "the Fees paid by you will be non-refundable and non-cancellable". Domains and Google Workspace business email are non-refundable from the start. Where local law requires a longer refund period, the terms say Wix "will accommodate such requirements". Outside the policy, Wix's refund page says to contact it and "we'll review your request", with no promise. Members often suggest a chargeback; Wix's terms say a chargeback can get your account, its services and your payment method blocked, with domains and other data subject to cancellation, so try Customer Care first.

What happens to my Wix site after I cancel?

Nothing until the plan expires. Then, Wix says, the site "will revert to a free Wix URL, and any custom domain connected will be disconnected": the address becomes siteprefix.wixsite.com/siteaddress, Wix ads appear, and premium features such as accepting payments stop. Wix's refund page puts the free version at up to 500MB of storage and 500MB of bandwidth. Your content isn't deleted, and the site stays online, so unpublish it or hide it from search engines if you don't want it public. A domain you bought through Wix stays registered until its own term ends. If you let it lapse, Wix describes a grace period of about 30 days for most domain endings, then a redemption period of about 30 days in which most domains need a redemption fee to recover, before it's released for anyone to register. Don't count on that window, though: Wix says the registrar can auction the domain privately in the last 10 days of the grace period, and that release from redemption isn't guaranteed.

Can I cancel Wix in the app, or through Apple or Google?

No. Wix says "it is not possible to manage your plans and subscriptions from the Wix app", cancelling a plan included, and points you to a computer instead. Wix doesn't document selling site plans through the App Store or Google Play, so there's no store subscription to cancel: Wix bills the plan and you cancel it in Premium Subscriptions. The exception is a plan bought through a reseller: Wix's terms say the reseller's cancellation terms apply, so contact the reseller. Wix Studio plans cancel the same way as Premium plans; Wix covers both in one help article with the same steps.

Can I cancel in the first 14 days and keep the plan until it ends?

No, you have to choose. Within the first 14 days of a new plan, cancelling is a refund: Wix says the plan is "immediately deactivated" and you lose premium features such as an ad-free site and your connected domain. If you want to keep the plan until the end of its term instead, Wix's help says "you must wait until the first 14 days are over before canceling". If you cancel within 72 hours of paying, Wix says the charge may drop off your statement within 20 business days instead of coming back as a refund, and within the first 24 hours it may be voided with no refund line at all. There's no pause either: Wix says a plan starts the moment you buy it and can't be paused or delayed.

Can I restart Wix after canceling?

Yes. Before the expiration date, click Turn On next to the plan in Premium Subscriptions and it renews on the next payment date as normal. After it expires, buy a plan again for the site; your content is still there, but check your custom domain, since Wix says the connection is lost when a plan expires. Don't count on the first-time extras: Wix gives the free domain voucher only with the first-time purchase of a site plan, its 14-day money-back guarantee is for first-time purchases, and a plan bought on sale renews at the standard rate.
