Refunds, downgrades, pausing and your data

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

Monthly membership fees are nonrefundable. An annual membership can be refunded within the first five calendar days of a paid term or renewal only if no Instacart+ benefits were used for an order. Otherwise it is nonrefundable, and benefits continue through the paid term.

No refunds
Is there a cheaper way to stay?

Cancelling Instacart+ leaves the free Instacart account available after the paid membership term ends. The account can still place orders without the membership benefits.

Read this
Can I pause instead of cancel?

No general user-controlled pause for a paid Instacart+ membership is documented in Instacart's current membership help or terms.

Not available
What happens to my account data?

Cancelling Instacart+ does not delete the Instacart account. Account deletion is a separate permanent request, and Instacart requires cancelling Instacart+ first. Instacart may retain information needed for legal, accounting, reporting and rights-enforcement purposes.
