How to cancel Meetup

62 / 100 Friction-Heavy Higher means harder to cancel

Organizers: open Settings → Organizer Subscription, click Cancel subscription, then Continue to cancel, and choose the plain Cancel subscription link under the discount offer. Meetup+ members cancel separately at Settings → Meetup+ Subscription. Either plan runs until the end of the period you paid for, and closing your groups does not stop the charges.

Why this score?

Computed from five weighted dimensions: required steps, retention friction, channel restrictions, refund policy, and recovery hostility. See the full rubric.
