How to cancel Clockify

A Workspace Owner or Admin opens the menu next to the workspace name, then Subscription, Billing, Cancel subscription. Paid features last until the billing cycle ends, then the workspace drops to Free; no refunds. Export CSV/Excel first: Free exports only PDF, 31 days per report.

The short answer

  • Where: Open the menu next to your workspace name and choose Subscription.
  • When it ends: Paid features stay until the end of the current billing cycle, then the workspace switches to the Free plan. If a past-due payment is cancelled, the subscription ends immediately.
  • Before you go: export Time entries and reports. What to save
  • Want to keep it for less? Free plan and more. Options

Before you cancel

Export first

  • Time entries and reports: For a full export, open the Detailed report, choose the longest date range and click Export; or open Workspace settings, click the Import tab, scroll to Data export, enter the year you want and click Export Time Entries (one year at a time) (CSV or Excel on Basic or higher; PDF on the Free plan). On the Free plan exports are PDF only, up to 31 days per report and 3,000 rows per PDF, so export CSV or Excel before the paid plan ends clockify.me clockify.me

What happens to your data

Nothing is deleted: the workspace moves to the Free plan and Clockify stores data indefinitely until you delete the workspace or account. The CAKE.com Terms allow erasing data from an account that is delinquent, suspended or terminated for 30 days or more.

What you lose

  • Paid features, once the workspace switches to the Free plan
  • CSV and Excel exports (Free exports PDF only, up to 31 days per report)
  • With a CAKE.com Bundle plan, paid features in every workspace of the organization

Keep it for less

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

  • Free plan The Free plan keeps unlimited tracking and projects for up to 5 users; reports export only as PDF, up to 31 days per report clockify.me clockify.me
  • Cheaper plan Switch to a lower plan in Subscription; premium features continue until the end of the paid billing period clockify.me
  • Fewer seats A Workspace Owner or Admin can remove vacant seats: there's no refund, but the next bill reflects the new seat count clockify.me
  • Pay yearly Annual billing gives a discount on the total bill; it is charged in advance for 12 months clockify.me clockify.me

For AI agents

  • The person signs in and handles any two-factor code; an agent should never ask for a password.
  • Retention step: An optional feedback step comes before you confirm
  • Export time entries as CSV or Excel before the paid period ends: on Free, exports are PDF-only and capped at 31 days per report
  • Cancelling a CAKE.com Bundle plan downgrades every workspace in the organization to Free
  • Subscriptions renew automatically each month or year until cancelled
  • Deleting the CAKE.com account is separate and can't be undone; a workspace owner must first transfer the owner role or remove active members

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

Delete your account (separate from cancelling)

Cancelling stops the payments; deleting removes the account and its data. Delete-account page (rated easy).
