In most cases Canva subscriptions are not refundable, as set out in Canva's Terms of Use, but Canva states it reviews every refund request case by case. Approved refunds take about 5-10 business days on credit cards and 3-5 on PayPal. Subscriptions billed through the Apple App Store must be refunded by Apple directly; Canva cannot process those.
Cancelling stops future payments and you keep paid features until the end of the current billing period, then the account moves to Canva Free. All designs remain accessible, the account stays active, and Affinity remains free with your Canva account. A cancellation can be undone from the Billing page (Stay on your plan) while the subscription is still active.
Canva Pro, Canva Teams and Canva Business plans can be paused for 3 months instead of cancelling: no charges during the pause and the plan resumes automatically with an email reminder first. Annual plans can only be paused when there are less than two months until renewal. The pause begins once the current billing period ends. Google Play subscriptions can also be paused from the Play Store.
Nothing is deleted when you cancel: all designs remain accessible on Canva Free and your account stays active. When a Teams or Business plan is cancelled, designs, Brand Kit content and shared folders are retained on the free plan, the workspace moves to Canva Free and the team admin remains the account owner.
These verified routes also apply to Canva.
