How do I cancel my Skillshare free trial?

Use the same steps as canceling a paid membership. Log in to skillshare.com, go to Account Settings, select Membership & Payments, and click Cancel membership. Make sure you cancel before the trial period ends to avoid being charged.

Will I lose access immediately after canceling?

No. After you cancel, your access continues until the end of your current billing period. You can keep watching classes and accessing content until that date passes.

Can I get a refund if I forgot to cancel my free trial?

If you were on a 7-day free trial and forgot to cancel, contact Skillshare support at help@skillshare.com within 48 hours of being charged. Refunds are handled on a case-by-case basis. Payments after 14-day or longer trials are not eligible for refunds.

Why can't I cancel from the Skillshare app?

If you subscribed through the Skillshare website, the mobile app does not have a cancel option. You need to visit skillshare.com in a web browser. If you subscribed through the App Store or Google Play, cancel through those platforms instead.

How do I know where I subscribed?

Check your email for the original Skillshare receipt. If the charge came from Apple or Google, you subscribed through the app store. If it came from Skillshare directly, you subscribed through the website. You can also check your Account Settings on skillshare.com — it will show your payment method.

Does Skillshare have a phone number for support?

No. Skillshare does not offer phone support. You can contact them by emailing help@skillshare.com or by submitting a support ticket through the Skillshare Help Center at help.skillshare.com.

Can I resubscribe after canceling?

Yes. You can sign back up at any time by visiting skillshare.com and choosing a new plan. Your account history and any saved classes will still be there when you return.

What happens to my projects and saved classes?

After your membership ends, you lose access to Skillshare classes, offline downloads, and teacher-provided resources. However, your account and any projects you uploaded remain on the platform. You can access them again if you resubscribe.

Does Skillshare offer a monthly plan?

Skillshare primarily offers an annual plan at $167.88 per year (about $13.99 per month). Monthly plans are not widely available through standard sign-up. Check the Skillshare pricing page for the most current options.

Will Skillshare charge me again after I cancel?

No. Once you successfully cancel, you will not be charged again. If you notice an unexpected charge after canceling, check your email for a cancellation confirmation and contact Skillshare support. You can also dispute the charge with your bank or payment provider.

Skillshare Refund Policy

Skillshare's refund policy depends on your plan type and when you request it:

Free trial (7-day): If you signed up for a 7-day free trial on the website and forgot to cancel before it ended, you may be eligible for a refund if you contact Skillshare within 48 hours of being charged. Reach out to help@skillshare.com or submit a ticket through the Skillshare Help Center.

Free trial (14-day or longer): Payments made after a 14-day or longer free trial are not eligible for refunds. This applies to promotional trials offered through partner links.

Annual membership renewals: Skillshare does not offer refunds on membership renewals. However, Skillshare sends a renewal reminder email 30 days before your annual plan renews, giving you time to cancel before you are charged again.

SEPA Direct Debit payments: If you paid through SEPA direct debit, you can request a refund up to 8 weeks after your initial payment.

EU and UK customers: If you are located in the European Union or the United Kingdom, you are entitled to a statutory cooling-off period under consumer protection law. If you signed up for a 14-day or longer trial, the trial period counts as your cooling-off window.

One refund per account: If you have already received a refund on your account, additional refund requests are generally not approved.

To request a refund, email help@skillshare.com or submit a support ticket. Include your account email address and a description of your request.
