Birchbox cancellation tips

A few things that might affect your Birchbox cancellation.

Points expire when you cancel
Any Birchbox Points you've earned will expire after cancellation, so consider redeeming them for full-size products before you cancel.
Quarterly billing cycles matter
Some Birchbox plans bill quarterly. Check your billing date to avoid being charged for another three-month period.
Gift subscriptions cancel differently
If someone gifted you Birchbox, the subscription will automatically end when the gift period expires. You don't need to cancel manually.

Before you cancel, keep this in mind

These details can affect your cancellation timing or whether it goes through properly.

1. Check who's billing you

Look at your credit card statement to see if you're being charged by Birchbox directly or through a third party like PayPal or your mobile carrier.

2. You keep access until your billing period ends

After cancelling, you'll continue receiving boxes until your current subscription period expires. There's no partial refund for unused time.

3. Deleting the app doesn't cancel

Removing the Birchbox app from your phone doesn't cancel your subscription. You need to cancel through your account settings or the App Store.

Other options to consider

If you're not using your boxes enough, you might be able to pause your subscription instead of cancelling completely.

Pause your Birchbox subscription

You can pause your Birchbox subscription for up to 3 months if you need a break but don't want to cancel permanently. This is helpful if you're traveling or have too many products to use up.
