Cancelling moves you off a paid plan. It's done through the billing portal.

## How

1. Go to **Settings → Plan & Billing**.
2. Select **Manage**.
3. A secure billing portal opens in a new tab.
4. Cancel your subscription there.

There's no cancel button in the dashboard itself — everything about billing lives in that portal.

## What happens next

You keep your paid features until the end of the billing period you've already paid for. After that, you move to **Lite**.

Your subscription status will show as **Canceled**.

## What you keep

Everything that isn't a paid feature:

- Your profile, handle, and DJ Link
- Your mixes and posts, including ones imported from SoundCloud
- Your bookings, past and upcoming
- Your reviews and completed event count
- Your client list and conversations
- Your payment and payout history

## What you lose

Back to Lite means a 20% platform fee and a 6-day payout delay, plus the paid features. See [What Changes When You Downgrade](/hc/djs/articles/1786145665-what-changes-when-you-downgrade).

## What cancelling doesn't do

**It doesn't cancel your bookings.** Confirmed events are still yours to play, and clients have paid you for them.

**It doesn't close your account.** You stay on DJfindr on the free plan. Closing the account is separate — see [Deactivating Your DJ Account](/hc/djs/articles/1786047501-deactivating-or-deleting-your-account).

**It doesn't stop payouts.** Money already collected is still released to your bank on schedule.

## Before you cancel

Worth a look at what you're actually paying for. If the platform fee saving on your current volume is close to the subscription cost, you may be roughly even — and you'd be giving up the features for nothing.

Check **Finance → Payments** for what you've collected recently and compare the fee difference against the monthly price.

## Moving down instead

If you're on Platinum and it's more than you need, dropping to Pro keeps the halved fee and most of the tools. Use **Upgrade** to open the plan table and pick a lower tier. See [Upgrading or Changing Your Plan](/hc/djs/articles/1786145664-upgrading-or-changing-your-plan).

## Coming back

Upgrade again any time from **Settings → Plan & Billing**. Note the 14-day free trial is once only — if you've used it, billing starts immediately.
