In short: to cancel an OnlyFans subscription, open the creator's profile and turn off auto-renew. You keep access until the end of the period you already paid for and won't be charged again. To close everything, you can also remove your card or delete your account.
OnlyFans subscriptions renew automatically every month. Handy if you follow a creator long-term, easy to forget otherwise, especially after a free trial. Here's how to cancel properly.
Cancelling a subscription, step by step
On a computer or mobile browser
- Log in to onlyfans.com.
- Open the profile of the creator you subscribe to (you'll also find it under Subscriptions in the side menu).
- Below the cover photo you'll see the Subscribed button and the Auto-renew option.
- Turn auto-renew off and confirm.
The profile will then show the date your subscription ends.
In the app
OnlyFans has no official app on the Apple or Google stores because of their adult-content rules: you use it in your phone's browser, optionally saved to the home screen. The steps are the same as on a computer.
Be careful with unofficial apps that claim to manage OnlyFans: don't enter your login there.
What happens after you cancel
- You keep seeing the content until the end date.
- You stop paying for the subscription, but PPV content you already unlocked stays available while the profile is active.
- The chat stays visible, but with most paid creators you can no longer message after expiry.
- You can resubscribe at any time, perhaps with a promotion.
| Action | Effect on charges | Keep access? |
|---|---|---|
| Turn off auto-renew | No new charges | Yes, until expiry |
| Remove your card | No charges to that card | Yes, until expiry |
| Delete your account | No future charges | No, you lose everything at once |
Cancelling after a free trial
Free trials become paid subscriptions when they end. The trick is simple: turn off auto-renew right after subscribing. You'll keep full access for the whole trial and pay nothing.

Cancelling bundles (3, 6, 12 months)
Bundles are paid upfront. Turning off renewal prevents the next bundle payment, but doesn't refund the unused part: access stays active until the end of the period you bought. More in the guide to PPV, tips and bundles.
Removing your payment card
To be sure nothing is charged:
- go to Your cards in settings;
- remove the saved card.
Without a card, paid subscriptions can't renew. Free profiles keep working.
Deleting your OnlyFans account
To permanently delete a fan account:
- open Settings → Account;
- choose Delete account and confirm.
Deletion is permanent: you lose active subscriptions, messages and unlocked content. Turn off renewals first so nothing is left pending.
Can you get a refund?
As a rule OnlyFans doesn't refund subscriptions or content already paid for, because access is granted immediately. If you believe you were charged in error (double payment, unauthorised charge), contact support with the date and amount.
Avoid opening a chargeback with your bank for a purchase you actually made: it usually gets the account blocked. If you suspect someone used your card, block it right away and follow your bank's instructions. More tips in the guide on how to pay for OnlyFans.
