Frequently Asked Questions
How do I cancel my Cursor subscription?
You can cancel Cursor through your account settings on their website or app. The process is rated "easy" difficulty and takes 5 steps. Your access typically continues until the end of your current billing period, so you won't lose access immediately after canceling.
Will I get a refund if I cancel Cursor?
Most Cursor plans do not offer prorated refunds for the current billing period. Your access continues until the end of the period you've already paid for. If you recently subscribed or were charged unexpectedly, contact Cursor support to request a refund — many services will accommodate recent charges.
Can I pause my Cursor subscription instead of canceling?
Cursor may offer a pause or hold option that temporarily suspends your subscription without canceling it entirely. This preserves your account data and settings. Check your account settings for a pause option — if one isn't available, you can cancel and resubscribe later, though some settings or data may not be preserved.
What happens to my data if I cancel Cursor?
After canceling Cursor, your account data is usually preserved for a period of time. You can typically reactivate and access your information if you resubscribe. Before canceling, export or save any important data, preferences, or content you want to keep.
Can I reactivate Cursor after canceling?
Yes, you can typically resubscribe to Cursor at any time after canceling. Most services allow you to reactivate your account with your original email address, and your previous settings or data may still be available. However, you may not get the same promotional pricing you originally signed up with — check for current deals before reactivating.
