Quick facts:

  • Where to cancel: In-app or bumble.com under Profile > Settings > Manage your subscription
  • Cutoff/notice: Cancel at least 24 hours before renewal
  • Refunds: Typically no refunds; see Bumble’s refund policy
  • Access after cancel: Remains active until the end of the billing cycle

If you can’t cancel your Bumble subscription

  • Subscribed through a third party (e.g., mobile carrier)? Cancel via that provider’s portal.
  • Started a free trial through an app store? Cancel via Apple or Google Play — not Bumble directly.
  • Check your active plan status at Bumble’s subscription page.

What happens after you cancel

  • Billing stops at the end of your current billing period.
  • You retain Premium or Boost features until your term expires.
  • Your Bumble profile and messages remain unless you delete your account.
  • You can resubscribe anytime from the app or bumble.com.

Troubleshooting

  • No Cancel option? Your plan may be billed through Apple or Google.
  • Didn’t get a confirmation email? Check spam or verify via Settings > Manage your subscription.
  • Refunds? Review Bumble’s refund policy or request support via Bumble Help Center.
  • Regional differences: Some regions may require additional verification steps when canceling through app stores.
