Cancel guide · Updated September 10, 2026

How to cancel ChatGPT Plus

OpenAI’s account flow: sign in at chatgpt.com or platform.openai.com, open Settings → Subscription (or My plan / Manage subscription), then Cancel and confirm. Save the confirmation. ChatGPT Team / workspace plans are cancelled by an admin in workspace billing—not by every member. If you subscribed through the Apple App Store, cancel in iOS Settings → Subscriptions. API prepaid credit or pay-as-you-go usage on platform.openai.com is separate from ChatGPT Plus; cancelling Plus does not close API billing and cancelling API billing does not cancel Plus.

Difficulty: Online. Policies change. This is the path that usually works, not a substitute for your contract or the merchant’s current account screens.

What does not work

  • Deleting the ChatGPT app
  • Signing out
  • A non-admin member cancelling a Team/workspace subscription
  • Cancelling Plus and assuming API usage billing stops (or the reverse)
  • Cancelling on chatgpt.com when Apple is the merchant on your statement

Online

  1. 01OpenAI-billed Plus: chatgpt.com or platform.openai.com → Settings → Subscription → Cancel. Confirm and save the confirmation.
  2. 02Team / Enterprise workspace: an admin opens workspace billing / subscription settings and cancels there.
  3. 03Apple billed: Settings → your name → Subscriptions → ChatGPT → Cancel Subscription.
  4. 04If you also use the API, open platform.openai.com billing separately to stop API payment methods or usage billing if that is your goal.

Fees and traps

  • Plus vs API: different products and invoices. Check which one matches the bank charge.
  • Access to Plus features usually continues until the end of the paid month. Check the confirmation screen for the end date.
  • Workspace seats: removing yourself from a team may not cancel the workspace’s subscription.
  • Wrong login (Google vs email vs Apple) can hide the Subscription page—use the account that purchased Plus.
