Cancel your QuickBooks Online subscription or trial (2024)

We're sorry to see you go. If QuickBooks Online isn't the right fit for you, we want to help you find the right tools.

Before you go, explore a wide range of powerful apps that seamlessly integrate with QuickBooks Online.

Here's how to cancel your subscription or trial.

Downgrade or upgrade your subscription level

If you need fewer features, consider downgrading your plan. This saves you money and you only keep what you need to do your bookkeeping.

If you'd like to explore plans with different features, you can go through our list of features that will help you to decide if upgrading or downgrading your subscription is right for you. If you'd like some help with QuickBooks before you decide, you can find an Advisor who can partner with you and share insights to help grow your business.

  • Cancel an account purchased online, directly from Intuit
  • Cancel a subscription purchased through the Apple App Store
  • Cancel a subscription purchased through the Google Play Store

Cancel a subscription during a free 30-day trial

If you cancel your subscription at any time during your 30-day free trial, you'll still be able to access QuickBooks until your next billing date. After that, you'll have read-only access to QuickBooks for one year starting from the date you cancel your subscription.

Learn what happens to your data after you cancel

For paid and trial subscriptions, we hang on to your data for one year. This lets you pick up where you left off if you decide to come back. During this time, the file will remain in a read-only state unless you choose to resubscribe or reactivate your account. We delete the data after one year.
