How to Cancel Windsurf Subscription & Request Refunds

Walkthrough for canceling Windsurf Pro and Teams auto-renewals, preserving add-on credits, and requesting refunds.

Uninstalling Editor Does Not Stop Billing

Removing the Windsurf IDE application from your machine does not cancel recurring billing. You must complete cancellation online.


Step-by-Step Cancellation

Open the Direct Cancellation Page

Visit the official Windsurf Cancellation Page while signed in, or open your Profile > Billing > Cancel Plan.

Confirm Cancellation in Stripe

In the billing portal prompt, confirm the cancellation request.

Retain End-of-Cycle Access

Your plan remains active with full Pro features until the current billing cycle expires, after which your account automatically reverts to the Free tier.


Refund Policy & Eligibility

  1. Unused Subscriptions: If you subscribed to a paid plan and have not consumed model quotas, you can request a refund by contacting support before using the service.
  2. Annual Subscriptions: If you are on an annual plan and decide to cancel following major policy updates, you may request a refund for remaining unused months.
  3. Add-on Usage Balances: Unspent extra usage balances converted during plan migrations can be submitted for a refund back to your original payment method via support.

Submitting a Refund Request

To submit a ticket:

  1. Review troubleshooting steps on the Windsurf Troubleshooting Portal.
  2. Reach out through the support contact portal or community channels with your transaction details:
