Refunds, downgrades, pausing and your data
Four questions people ask before they cancelCan I get my money back?
Genially does not offer refunds. As an EU company it applies Directive 2011/83/EU: the right of withdrawal cannot be exercised for digital services once use has begun, and accepting the Terms and Conditions when buying a premium plan means renouncing it. There is no refund for monthly or yearly plans or for renewals; you can cancel any time before the renewal date instead.
Is there a cheaper way to stay?
After cancelling you keep premium features until the billing period ends, then the account becomes a Free account. All creations stay accessible, but premium features are lost: you can no longer download your geniallys, privately published geniallys become public and lose password protection, folders are flattened back into the Creations section, videos uploaded from a device are temporarily disabled (they reactivate if you upgrade again), Brand Kit items such as fonts, logo and loader disappear, and Activity reports become inaccessible.
Can I pause instead of cancel?
No pause option is documented in Genially's help center.
What happens to my account data?
Cancelling never deletes your work: all creations remain accessible on the Free account, and files downloaded during the subscription stay on your device. Account deletion is separate: cancel any active premium plan first, then go to Settings in the lower-left corner of the dashboard, open Account settings and under Access click Delete my Genially account. Deletion is permanent - all geniallys and any information associated with the account are completely removed.

Frequently asked questions
Does cancelling Genially take effect immediately?
No. You keep your plan's features until the billing period ends. Once it has elapsed, your account still exists as a Free account.
Do I lose my creations when I cancel?
No. You can always access all your creations even after cancelling; you just lose premium features such as downloading geniallys, privacy control and the Brand Kit.
I pay through PayPal - is cancelling in Genially enough?
No. You must also cancel the subscription in your PayPal settings at www.paypal.com, or you will continue to receive Genially invoices.
Can I get a refund from Genially?
No. Under EU Directive 2011/83/EU the right of withdrawal does not apply to digital services once use has begun, so there are no refunds for monthly or yearly plans or renewals.
Which Genially plans are billed monthly?
Only the Pro plan can be billed monthly. The Master, Author and Enterprise plans are all billed annually.
How do I delete my Genially account completely?
Cancel any active premium plan first, then go to Settings, open Account settings and click Delete my Genially account under Access. Deletion is permanent and removes all geniallys and account information.
