The short answer
- Where: Open Settings, then choose Billing under Account.
- When it ends: The current plan stays active until the renewal date, when the scheduled downgrade applies.
- Contract notice: At least 30 days before the end of the then-current Subscription Term, unless your order form says otherwise. How to give notice
- Before you go: export Project code. What to save
- Want to keep it for less? Free plan and more. Options
Before you cancel
Export first
- Project code: Connect the project to a GitHub repository for backup (Git repository). Enterprise customers can migrate content for up to 30 days after termination; deleting an organization or account can't be undone docs.replit.com replit.com docs.replit.com docs.replit.com
What happens to your data
Downgrading keeps projects and data. Free accounts not signed in to for a year may be terminated and their apps deleted. Deleted accounts' data is removed under Replit's retention policy; Enterprise content can be migrated for 30 days after termination.
What you lose
- The paid plan's monthly credits (they drop to the lower plan's amount; unused credits don't roll over)
- Published apps beyond what Starter includes, plus Full build and external connectors
- A shorter point-in-time restore window for databases
- Everything in an organization (apps, published apps, projects) once it is deleted

Keep it for less
Before cancelling, check whether one of these does the job. Offers change and differ by account.
- Free plan Starter is free, with daily Agent credits up to a monthly cap; extra published apps, Full build and external connectors need Core or Pro docs.replit.com
- Cheaper plan Move to a lower paid plan, or switch Pro from yearly to monthly billing; it applies at the renewal date and your projects and data stay intact docs.replit.com
- Fewer seats Remove empty seats from an organization; you keep the seat until the end of the current contracted period, and the next period starts with the lower seat count docs.replit.com

For AI agents
- The person signs in and handles any two-factor code; an agent should never ask for a password.
- A scheduled downgrade can be undone before it takes effect: open Settings, Billing and choose to keep your current plan
- Cancelling an organization subscription means deleting the organization, which immediately deletes all its apps, published apps and projects: back up first
- Deleting your account (Settings, Billing, Request account deletion) is separate from downgrading and can't be recovered
- Published apps and production databases bill by usage: an idle Autoscale app costs nothing, but a Reserved VM deployment runs continuously; development databases are free
- Paid accounts are never closed for inactivity; free accounts unused for a year can be terminated and their apps deleted
Get this plan as data: get_exit_plan on the Stackcut MCP (stackcut.io/mcp), or /exits/replit.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).
