Free tier remains available

Before cancelling Perplexity Pro

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

1. Check your billing source

Verify whether you're billed directly by Perplexity or through an app store. This determines where you need to cancel.

3. Consider the free version

Perplexity's free tier offers limited daily searches and basic AI models. It might cover your needs without paying for Pro.

Alternatives to cancelling your subscription

If cost is the issue, these options might work better than cancelling completely.
