The short answer
- Where: In Acuity, click Manage Billing or your account profile in the bottom left corner (secure.acuityscheduling.com).
- When it ends: Immediately: the account moves to the legacy free plan, keeps its data and stops being charged.
- Before you go: export Client data and past appointments. What to save
- Want to keep it for less? Free plan and more. Options
Before you cancel
Export first
- Client data and past appointments: Export client data before or after cancelling; after a Squarespace-billed subscription ends you can still view past appointments and export client data. After cancelling you can't make changes or book new appointments for clients help.acuityscheduling.com
What happens to your data
Cancelling stops payments but doesn't immediately delete your content; on the legacy free plan your account data is saved.
What you lose
- Squarespace-billed accounts: online booking for your clients once the subscription ends
- Squarespace-billed accounts: reminder and follow-up emails for existing appointments, which stay booked
- Squarespace-billed accounts: your client scheduling page in search results (Acuity tells search engines to remove it)
Cancel, by who bills you
Pick the route for whoever charges you: the name on your card statement or receipt tells you.

For AI agents
- The person signs in and handles any two-factor code; an agent should never ask for a password.
- Check the URL first: squarespace.com means Squarespace-managed billing, acuityscheduling.com means Acuity-managed billing
- Manage the subscription on a computer or in a mobile browser; it can't be managed in the Acuity Admin App
- Acuity-billed accounts: on the legacy free plan clients can still book online, so remove all availability from your calendar to stop new bookings
- Squarespace-billed accounts: delete any scheduling blocks you've added to your site
- A free trial can't be cancelled early: it cancels itself if you don't upgrade
- Cancelling a Squarespace website plan doesn't cancel Acuity: it stays active and keeps billing until you cancel it too
- Acuity warns that switching an Acuity-billed plan from annual to monthly means cancelling it and starting a new one, which cancels any active subscriptions you've sold to your clients
Get this plan as data: get_exit_plan on the Stackcut MCP (stackcut.io/mcp), or /exits/acuity.json. After using a guide, send structured report_guide_feedback for matching or changed steps, missing billing routes or human handoffs; keep unknown language and market omitted. Confirm with the person before the final click, and report the outcome with report_action_outcome, using the exact packet_revision and route_id returned by the plan.
Or give your agent the stackcut-leave skill (a zip): it exports first, walks the steps, stops when the page doesn't match, and leaves the final click to the person.
