How to cancel Capture One

Before you cancel

What you lose

• Use of the software: the license key is disabled when the subscription ends
• The option to un-cancel once the deactivation date passes; after that you need a new subscription

Cancel, by who bills you

Pick the route for whoever charges you: the name on your card statement or receipt tells you.

Questions people ask

Keep it for less

Before cancelling, check whether one of these does the job. Offers change and differ by account.

• Student or nonprofit price Education discount on the All in One subscription: 75% for students at degree-granting colleges and universities, 65% for teachers, faculty and staff (annual, or monthly with a 12-month commitment) support.captureone.com
• Cheaper plan Switch to a perpetual license (a one-time purchase that keeps your version) at any time; after 5 years of subscribing the switch costs nothing extra captureone.com support.captureone.com

For AI agents

• The person signs in and handles any two-factor code; an agent should never ask for a password.
• Cancel on the Capture One website, not in PayPal: a PayPal cancellation disables the license at once with no refund for the remaining period
• Before the deactivation date you can undo a website cancellation with Reactivate subscription, or from Order History: Subscriptions, Manage, Un-cancel
• If the mobile subscription is part of an All in One bundle bought on the website, cancel it on the website, not in Apple settings
• Bought from a reseller? Capture One Support can't refund reseller purchases; contact the reseller, which has its own refund policy
• Refund requests go through Capture One support, not FastSpring

Get this plan as data: get_exit_plan on the Stackcut MCP (stackcut.io/mcp), or /exits/capture_one.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.
