The short answer
- Where: Log in with administrator credentials.
- When it ends: End of the current billing cycle. You keep access until then, after which the account moves to the Free plan.
- Contract notice: None stated in the Enterprise terms; check your order form. Waitwhile must give at least 30 days' written notice before raising fees for a renewal term. How to give notice
- Before you go: export Reports, customer data and settings. What to save
- Want to keep it for less? Cheaper plan and more. Options
Before you cancel
Export first
- Reports, customer data and settings: Download them before deleting the account. The deletion article doesn't say how to download them. Must be done before deletion: once the account is deleted, the data is permanently erased and cannot be recovered help.waitwhile.com
What happens to your data
Waitwhile keeps customer data for two years from when it is first entered and deletes it when the agreement expires; no number of days is given. Deleting the account erases all data permanently, and an account with no login for 6 months is deleted automatically.
What you lose
- Paid plan features once the billing period ends
- The unused part of the term: no refunds or credits
- All account data once the account is deleted, which cannot be recovered
- The account itself if it is not logged into for 6 months

Keep it for less

Moving to a lower plan with Change plan takes effect at your next renewal date. The pricing FAQ instead says downgrades take effect instantly with unused fees credited to the next invoice help.waitwhile.com help.waitwhile.com
- Free plan Free plan, which you can use for as long as you want; it lets you waitlist up to 50 guests each month help.waitwhile.com waitwhile.com

For AI agents
- The person signs in and handles any two-factor code; an agent should never ask for a password.
- Retention step: The flow may ask for feedback or a reason before the final confirm. No retention offers are documented
- Plans renew automatically at the end of each billing cycle and charge the card on file
- Unpaid invoices must be cleared before a cancellation can go through
- Deleting the account is a separate step from cancelling: cancel the paid plan first, download what you need, and use Owner credentials
- Unused SMS message credits stay on the account after cancelling but are never refunded
- You can reactivate at any time by selecting a plan in the billing section
Get this plan as data: get_exit_plan on the Stackcut MCP (stackcut.io/mcp), or /exits/waitwhile.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.

Not confirmed yet
- The help articles name different roles: administrator credentials for cancelling and Owner credentials for deleting. Which roles can change a plan isn't stated
- The help articles disagree on when a move to a lower plan takes effect: at the next renewal date, or instantly
- No cancellation confirmation email is documented
- The Enterprise terms don't say whether an order form renews automatically or how much notice ends it; check your order form
- Whether data can be exported in a standard format such as CSV isn't documented; the deletion article says only to download reports, customer data and settings
- Waitwhile's terms mention app store terms, but its help doesn't describe buying a plan through Apple or Google, so no app store route is included
