Refunds, downgrades, pausing and your data

Four questions people ask before they cancel
Can I get my money back?

Public billing docs do not document a general self-serve refund for ordinary usage. Monthly PAYG is billed in arrears for the prior month. Marketplace cancellation stops billing at the end of the billing period. Unused annual committed spend can expire at contract end.

See policy
Is there a cheaper way to stay?

Monthly and Free accounts can change plan from Billing via Manage plan. Downgrades show Confirm downgrade prompts and require dropping exclusive features first. Fivetran bills the cheapest plan rate for the whole month when you switch plans. Sales-assisted and marketplace accounts cannot convert plans in the dashboard.

Can I pause instead of cancel?

No pause option is documented for paid subscriptions. A trial pause is only described as asking a product specialist during evaluation.

Not available
What happens to my account data?

Cancelling a paid online plan is documented only as taking up to 10 minutes to show on the dashboard. The public cancel article does not say whether the account stays on the Free plan or how long connection configuration is kept. Deleting a user is a separate Account Settings action and does not cancel the plan.

Frequently asked questions

Answers checked with the steps above
Where do I cancel a credit-card Fivetran plan?

On the Billing tab, under Billing details, click Manage plan, then Cancel plan. Only Account Administrator or Account Billing roles can use that tab.

How long until cancellation takes effect?

Fivetran says cancellation can take up to 10 minutes to be effective and show on your dashboard.

Do I get a refund if I cancel mid-month?

The public docs do not document a self-serve refund. PAYG is billed monthly in arrears for usage. Unused annual committed spend can expire.

Can I cancel a marketplace subscription in the Fivetran dashboard?

No. Cancel it in the AWS, Google Cloud or Azure Marketplace console. Billing stops at the end of that period unless another Fivetran billing method is still active.

Can I downgrade instead of cancelling?

Yes, if you are on a monthly subscription or the Free plan. Click Manage plan and follow Confirm downgrade. Sales-assisted and marketplace accounts cannot convert plans in the dashboard.

Is there a free plan after I cancel?

Fivetran offers a Free plan with MAR and model-run caps. The cancel-plan article does not state that cancellation automatically moves you onto that Free plan.
