Yes — you can cancel your Canva Pro free trial at any time before the thirty days are up and you won’t be charged. Here’s what you need to know.
How to Cancel
To cancel, go to your account settings (which you’ll find when you when you click on your profile picture in the lower left corner of the page), find the billing section, and select the option to cancel your subscription. The process takes a few minutes and doesn’t require contacting Canva support.
What Happens After You Cancel
Cancelling before the trial ends doesn’t cut off your access to Pro features immediately. You’ll continue to have full access until the trial period expires — cancelling simply stops the automatic conversion to a paid subscription at the end of those thirty days. Once the trial period is up, your account reverts to the free plan.
What Happens to Your Designs
Your designs stay in your account after the trial ends. Any designs that include premium elements won’t be downloadable without watermarks on the free plan, but the design files themselves remain intact.
If you decide to upgrade to Pro in the future, full download access to those designs is restored.
If You’re on the Fence
If you’re considering cancelling because you’re not sure Pro is worth it, it may be worth taking another look at what’s included before you decide.
My post on what you can do with Canva Pro that you can’t do for free covers every feature difference in detail, which may help clarify whether the subscription makes sense for how you use Canva.
