Keep it for less

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

  • Student or nonprofit price A Headspace Student plan is available to students in the United States, Australia, Canada, France, Germany and the UK (apply at headspace.com/studentplan) help.headspace.com

For AI agents

  • The person signs in and handles any two-factor code; an agent should never ask for a password.
  • Web subscriptions are cancelled in a browser, not in the Headspace app
  • There is no pause option; turning off auto-renewal lets the subscription run out at the end of the paid time
  • Free subscriptions from an employer or other organization expire on their own and need no cancelling
  • Headspace + Spotify bundles are cancelled in your Spotify account
  • Mental Health Coaching is a separate subscription with its own cancel steps (Profile, Settings, Account & Subscription)

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