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 is limited to 1 user paymoapp.com
  • Pay yearly Paying annually gets a discount of up to 40%, depending on the plan. To switch from monthly, cancel the monthly plan, then select the annual plan paymoapp.com help.paymoapp.com
  • Cheaper plan Change the plan and number of users in Subscription & Billing, then Modify subscription. The help center says moving to a cheaper plan mid-subscription credits the difference to your Paymo account for future charges; the Terms say plan changes get no refunds help.paymoapp.com paymoapp.com
  • Fewer seats Lower the number of users from Subscription & Billing, then Modify subscription help.paymoapp.com

For AI agents

  • The person signs in and handles any two-factor code; an agent should never ask for a password.
  • Cancelling and changing subscriptions must be done from the online account on a desktop or laptop
  • Cancellations sent by other means, such as email, are not considered under the terms
  • Deleting the account cancels the plan but removes all content at once, so cancel instead if you want to keep your data
  • A failed payment (blocked by the bank, insufficient funds or an expired card) can cancel the plan automatically; the account data is kept until you re-upgrade
  • Export projects as CSV and download invoices before deleting the account

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