You cancel through the store you paid with: the Apple App Store on an iPhone, or Google Play on Android. Coffee Meets Bagel subscriptions renew automatically until you unsubscribe there, and deleting the app or your account does not cancel them. After you cancel, you keep Premium for the days you have already paid for.

Where the subscription lives

The subscription is billed through your Apple or Google account, not through the app itself. That is why you will not find the cancel option inside Coffee Meets Bagel.

On an iPhone, open the subscriptions list in your Apple account settings, find Coffee Meets Bagel and cancel it. On Android, open the Google Play Store, go to your subscriptions, find Coffee Meets Bagel and cancel it there. If you have more than one Apple or Google account, look in the one you paid with.

Deleting the app does not cancel it

This is the misunderstanding that costs men money. Deleting Coffee Meets Bagel from your phone does not cancel the subscription. Deleting your account does not cancel it either. The plan keeps renewing in both cases, and you keep paying for something you no longer use.

So the order matters. Cancel first, in the store. Only then delete the app or the account, if that is what you want.

What you keep after cancelling

Cancelling stops the next renewal. It does not switch Premium off on the spot. You keep your Premium features for the days you already paid for, so there is no reason to wait until the last day before cancelling.

Use the rest of the period well. Work through Likes You while you can still see it clearly. Answer anyone you have been meaning to answer. Set up any date that is close to happening, and move it onto your phone so it does not depend on your plan.

Cancelling a free trial in time

A free trial becomes a paid subscription unless you cancel it at least 24 hours before it ends. Cancel a few hours too late and you will be charged.

If you are trying Premium on a trial, put a reminder in your calendar two days before it ends. When the reminder goes off, look at what the trial actually did for you and decide then.

Use the trial like a test rather than a treat. Work Likes You, send your first messages promptly, and try to set at least one date inside it. A trial you barely opened tells you nothing about whether the plan is worth paying for.

Cancel, pause, or both

Cancelling and pausing are two separate switches, and men often mix them up.

Cancelling stops the billing. It lives in the App Store or Google Play, and it does not take your account off the app. Pausing is the opposite. It happens inside Coffee Meets Bagel and is the way to take a break without deleting, but Coffee Meets Bagel's pause page notes that your subscription is managed separately. Pausing alone does not stop the payments.

So pick the switch that matches what you want. Want to stop paying but keep using the free plan? Cancel. Want a break while your plan runs out? Pause. Want a break and no more bills? Do both: cancel in the store first, then pause in the app.

Was the plan doing anything for you?

Before you cancel, take two minutes to judge the plan honestly. a dating coach treats every paid feature on the apps the same way. Try it, keep it if it clearly helps, and drop it the moment it does not.

So count. How many likes came in while you were paying? How many turned into conversations, and how many conversations turned into dates? Compare that with a month on the free plan. If the paid month brought clearly more dates, the money was working, and cancelling may cost you more than it saves. If the numbers barely moved, cancel without a second thought.

A cheaper fix than another month

If the paid month did little, the plan was probably not the problem. My point about paid features is that they multiply what you already have. A multiplier on almost nothing still gives you almost nothing.

The fix that costs nothing is what women see when they reach you. That means a clear, well-lit photo of your face in the first slot. It means a page that says something specific about your life. And it means short opening messages that give her something easy to answer. Get those working on the free plan first. Then, if you ever pay again, the plan will have something real to multiply.
