Step-by-step instructions

Use the Organization menu, Usage, then the Plans tab. The terms call this account settings.

1
Open Usage from the Organization menu

Sign in, click the Organization menu in the top left of the dashboard, then click Usage.

2
Open the Plans tab

The Usage and billing changelog documents a Plans tab where you can upgrade or downgrade your subscription.

3
Leave the paid plan from account settings

The terms say a self-serve customer may terminate at any time via the settings in the Customer's Account, and that moving from a paid plan to a free plan takes effect on expiry of the then-current Billing Period. Follow the subscription controls shown on the Plans tab; Trigger.dev does not publish a separate Cancel button label.

A move from paid to Free takes effect at the end of the current billing period, not immediately.

Refunds, downgrades, pausing and your data

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

Service fees, including overage fees, are non-refundable except where a bug or defect in Trigger.dev caused runs to execute when they should not have executed. Fees from your own configuration or use, including runs you triggered, runs that took longer than expected, and usage you could have limited, are not eligible. Request an eligible refund at [email protected] with details of the affected runs.

Case by case
Is there a cheaper way to stay?

Moving from a paid plan to Free takes effect at the end of the current billing period. Until then the paid plan continues. Free remains available after that with Free-plan limits.

Free tier exists
Can I pause instead of cancel?

No subscription pause option is documented. Billing limits in Organization Settings can cap spend; they are not a pause of the subscription.

Not available
What happens to my account data?

On termination, licences end and access to the service ends. You may request that Customer Data is actively deleted, passively deleted or parked under Trigger.dev's Data Deletion Policy. If you make no election, Customer Data is subject to passive deletion.
