      "answer": "Check your billing email or bank statement. Charges appear as Canva or Canva*invoice_id (direct), APPLE*Canva (App Store) or GOOGLE*Canva (Google Play). Cancel through the platform that bills you - Canva cannot cancel App Store or Google Play subscriptions."
    },
    {
      "question": "Can I get a refund from Canva?",
      "answer": "In most cases subscriptions are not refundable per Canva's Terms of Use, but Canva reviews every request case by case. Apple-billed subscriptions are refunded by Apple only. Note that App Store prices also differ from web prices (Canva Pro is $18 a month on the US App Store)."
    },
    {
      "question": "Can I pause Canva instead of cancelling?",
      "answer": "Yes. Pro, Teams and Business plans can pause for 3 months with no charges, and the plan resumes automatically after an email reminder. Annual plans can pause only in the last two months before renewal."
    },
    {
      "question": "I cancelled but I am still being charged. Why?",
      "answer": "Confirm you received the cancellation confirmation email - without it the cancellation did not go through. Also check for App Store or Google Play billing (Canva cannot cancel those), a second Canva account under another email, or an active PayPal billing agreement."
    },
    {
      "question": "What happens to my team if I cancel Canva Teams or Business?",
      "answer": "Team members lose access to paid features at the end of the billing period, all designs, Brand Kit content and shared folders are retained on Canva Free, and the workspace moves to the free plan. Cancelling Canva Teams is permanent - you cannot resubscribe to Teams."
