How to cancel your NordVPN subscription and get a refund

A NordVPN refund and the 30-day money-back guarantee policy

NordVPN is obliged to issue its customers a full refund within 30 days of purchase and lives up to this guarantee. If you’ve decided to get a refund for your NordVPN subscription, follow the instructions below to terminate your NordVPN account for good.

Remember that if you purchased NordVPN through the Apple App Store, the Amazon App Store, or a third-party marketplace, you must contact it directly to start the refund process. NordVPN cannot grant refunds for subscriptions made through these retailers.

Can I get a refund for a NordVPN subscription?

Yes, you can get a refund for your NordVPN subscription by contacting our 24/7 customer support service. If you want to receive a refund for your subscription, you must do so within 30 days of purchasing NordVPN. Remember — we do not refund recurring subscription payments, meaning we cannot issue a refund once the 30-day money-back period ends.

If you manually cancel your recurring subscription, you will not be granted a refund, even if you’ve canceled the subscription within 30 days of your purchase. If you wish to receive a refund, you need to contact our customer support team.

What should I know before canceling my NordVPN subscription?

If you’ve decided to cancel your NordVPN service, keep in mind the following before terminating your subscription:

• The refund policy. NordVPN offers a 30-day money-back guarantee, meaning you can cancel your subscription within 30 days of purchase and contact our customer support team to request a refund. If you cancel after 30 days, you will no longer be eligible for a refund.
• Your billing cycle. Ensure you terminate your recurring subscription within 30 days of purchase to avoid being charged for another month or year.
• Alternative options. Contact our customer support team if you are experiencing technical issues with your NordVPN service. We may be able to resolve the problem, which will save you the trouble of looking for another VPN.
• Data backup. If you have a NordVPN bundle and store your data in NordLocker or NordPass, back it up. When you terminate your Nord Account, accessing your files and/or passwords might become inconvenient due to the limited features of a downgraded plan.
