How to cancel Crunchbase

Cancel Pro under Account Settings, Subscriptions & Billing, Cancel Seats, then the red Cancel Subscription button. Access runs to the end of the billing period. Refunds are possible only if requested within 7 days of payment and you exported no data. Business and Enterprise contracts go through Crunchbase's team.

The short answer

  • Where: Click Account in the upper right corner, then select Account Settings (support.crunchbase.com).
  • When it ends: The subscription stays active until the end of the billing period, then the paid account reverts to a free account.
  • Before you go: export Searches and lists. What to save

What happens to your data

The privacy policy keeps personal data for as long as the account is open, and longer where the law requires; it doesn't say how long after closing. California residents can ask for deletion.

What you lose

  • Pro features once the paid period ends; the account reverts to a free account with up to 5 results per search
  • CSV exports, which need a Pro or Business plan

Keep it for less

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

  • Offer when you cancel The cancel flow offers a switch to a more flexible month-to-month Pro plan at $99/month instead of cancelling support.crunchbase.com
  • Free plan After cancelling, the account reverts to a free account: company profiles and limited search (up to 5 results per search) support.crunchbase.com support.crunchbase.com

For AI agents

  • The person signs in and handles any two-factor code; an agent should never ask for a password.
  • Retention step: After Continue to Cancel, the flow asks why you're canceling, then offers a month-to-month Pro plan at $99/month before the final red Cancel Subscription button
  • Cancelling stops only future renewal charges; the current period is not refunded
  • Ask for any refund at billing@crunchbase.com within 7 days of the payment, and don't export data first
  • Crunchbase's terms say it no longer supports its Apple app; cancel on crunchbase.com

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