Cancellation
Must cancel before renewal date; cancellation process is reportedly confusing and difficult to find
While subscriptions can be canceled at any time, the cancellation typically takes effect at the expiration of the current Initial or Renewal Term. For Google AI Pro, a user reported being charged after canceling 5 days before renewal, with a recommendation to cancel at least 10 days in advance to avoid authorization holds. Prepaid subscription periods are generally not refunded upon cancellation.
