How to cancel Bitdefender

If auto-renewal is on, Bitdefender extends your subscription automatically when it expires and emails you 45 days before the expiration date. To cancel, you turn off auto-renewal under My Subscriptions in your Bitdefender Central account.

How do I cancel Bitdefender?

  2. 2Click My Subscriptions in the left menu, then open the My Payments tab.
  3. 3Click View details next to the product (if you bought it with a different email, enter the verification code sent there), then in the new tab click Manage your subscription renewal options.
  4. 4In the pop-up window, click End Auto-Renewal, select a reason, then click End Auto-Renewal twice.
  5. 5If you see a Billing tab instead of My Payments, open the Subscriptions tab, click the [ ••• ] button on the subscription and choose Subscription & Continuous Protection. Click Cancel Subscription, choose Cancel at the end of subscription term or Cancel immediately, click Cancel Subscription, select a reason and click Cancel Subscription again.

Billed through an app store or partner?

If you can't stop auto-renewal from the My Payments tab, use Bitdefender's payment processor 2Checkout (Verifone): go to store.bitdefender.com/myaccount, enter your purchase email, click SEND ACCESS LINK and open the emailed link within 1 hour. On the My Products tab, click Stop automatic subscription renewal, then click Stop auto-renewal, select a reason and click Stop auto-renewal twice.

What happens after I cancel?

  • Once auto-renewal is off, you have to renew your Bitdefender product manually.
  • The auto-renewal status updates immediately in Bitdefender Central, and you get a confirmation email shortly after.
  • On the Subscriptions tab, Cancel immediately is offered only within 30 days of purchase; it gives you a refund and the subscription expires. For a renewal charge you did not want, Bitdefender covers refunds in a separate help article.
