The short answer
- Where: Go to the Settings of the workspace with the paid plan (or use the direct cancel link in Kapwing's help article) (kapwing.com).
- When it ends: Renewal turns off; premium features stay through the end of the billing cycle (one month or one year from upgrading), then the workspace downgrades to a Free workspace.
- Before you go: export Finished projects (video, GIF, image or audio). What to save
- Want to keep it for less? Free plan and more. Options
Before you cancel
Export first
- Finished projects (video, GIF, image or audio): Open the project and click Export Project at the top right; pick format, resolution and compression; when processing finishes, click Download at the top right (MP4, GIF, image, or MP3 (only for projects with sound); up to HD). On the Free plan exports are watermarked and limited to 4 minutes and 720p, and projects using paid tools may not export kapwing.com kapwing.com
What happens to your data
The workspace becomes a Free workspace with Free limits, where projects are subject to deletion after 3 days. Kapwing keeps customer data only as long as necessary; deleting the account deletes all its videos and data.
What you lose
- Projects older than 3 days (subject to deletion on the Free plan) unless you re-upgrade
- Watermark-free exports, exports over 4 minutes and above 720p
- Paid storage: the workspace drops to Free storage limits
Cancel, by who bills you
Pick the route for whoever charges you: the name on your card statement or receipt tells you.

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