Short answer

Cancel Slack Pro from Manage billing under Admin in the desktop app: open Change plan details, select Downgrade to Free and confirm with Downgrade Slack. It takes about 90 seconds, and the change applies immediately or on the next renewal date, whichever you choose. Slack does not refund payments already made; an immediate downgrade may create non-refundable Slack credits instead.

Step-by-step instructions

Slack lets eligible workspace billing managers choose an immediate downgrade or the next renewal date.

1
Open Manage billing

From the desktop app, click Admin in the sidebar and select Manage billing. If Admin is hidden, open the workspace name menu first.

2
Open Change plan details

From the Overview tab, choose Change plan details. Workspace Owners and members who originally upgraded the workspace can manage this change.

3
Select Downgrade to Free

Choose Downgrade to Free and decide whether the change should take effect immediately or on the next renewal date.

4
Confirm with Downgrade Slack

Review the downgrade details, continue to checkout and click Downgrade Slack. Free-plan limits apply once the change takes effect.

On Free, only the most recent 90 days are accessible and data older than one year is permanently deleted.

Refunds, downgrades, pausing and your data

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

Slack says payments already made are not refunded. If an immediate downgrade produces Slack credits for unused paid time, those credits have no cash value, are non-transferable and non-refundable, and expire when the paid plan ends.

No refunds
Is there a cheaper way to stay?

Canceling Pro moves the workspace to Free. Free limits message and file access to the most recent 90 days, restricts apps and group features, and applies its own retention rules.

Free tier exists
Can I pause instead of cancel?

No subscription pause option is documented. Choose a future downgrade date if you want to retain paid features until renewal.

Not available
What happens to my account data?

After downgrade, Free workspaces can access the most recent 90 days and data older than one year is permanently deleted on a rolling basis. Deleting the entire workspace is separate, permanent and makes messages and files unrecoverable.
