Wistia-specific things to know

Good to know

Quick notes before you cancel your video hosting subscription.

1. Check your billing date

Wistia charges monthly or annually. Your account remains active until the end of the current billing period, so time your cancellation accordingly.

2. Export important content first

Download any videos, analytics reports, or lead data you want to keep. This information becomes inaccessible once your subscription ends.

3. Administrator access required

Only account administrators can cancel subscriptions. Regular team members won't see the cancellation option in billing settings.

Other options to consider

If cost is the issue or you need fewer features, downgrading might work better than cancelling completely.

Downgrade your Wistia plan

Wistia offers multiple pricing tiers. You might be able to switch to a lower plan that still meets your video hosting needs.

  • Pro plan - $99/month for up to 10 users

  • Advanced plan - $399/month for larger teams

  • Custom Enterprise pricing available
