How to cancel Final Round AI: the exact steps, refund rules and what happens next

Where the cancel option lives in the desktop app, why cancelling alone never refunds you, how the 72-hour money-back rule works, and how to delete your account afterwards.

How to cancel Final Round AI: open Settings → Account & Billing in the desktop app, select Manage subscription and confirm the cancellation in the billing portal that opens in your browser, but know that cancelling never refunds a charge, because a refund needs a separate email within 72 hours of that charge. That is the process as of October 2026, taken from Final Round AI's own FAQ (last reviewed October 8, 2026) and its Refund Policy (last updated October 8, 2026).

Every paid plan renews automatically until you cancel, so do it before your renewal date. Below are the exact steps, what you keep afterwards, the refund rules in plain words and what to do if the option isn't where you expect it. If you want the plan prices first, our Final Round AI pricing breakdown lists every plan.

How to cancel Final Round AI, step by step

  1. Open the Final Round AI desktop app and sign in with the same account and sign-in method you paid with.
  2. Open Settings → Account & Billing.
  3. Select Manage subscription. Subscription management opens in your browser.
  4. Complete and confirm the cancellation in that secure portal. Final Round's FAQ is explicit that opening the portal "alone does not cancel anything", so finish every step it shows.
  5. Read the effective date and final terms the portal displays, and save the confirmation.
  6. Back in the app, go to Settings → Account & Billing and select Refresh subscription status beside Plan to check that the change went through.

The same portal holds your payment history and receipts, so download any invoices you need for your records while you're there.

Paid through the App Store or Google Play?

Final Round AI's FAQ covers its desktop app for Mac and Windows, and its Terms of Use name Stripe as the payment processor without mentioning Apple or Google billing. A Final Round subscription is managed in its own billing portal, as above. If your statement shows a charge through Apple or Google under a similar name, open the subscription list on your phone to see which app it belongs to before you contact Final Round.

What happens after you cancel Final Round AI

How to delete your Final Round AI account

Account deletion happens on the website, not in the desktop app: sign in, open Account settings, find Danger Zone, select Delete Account and confirm with Delete My Account. Final Round says deletion is permanent and separate from erasing the copilot's coaching memory. If you can't sign in, email support@finalroundai.com with the subject "Data deletion request". If you used the older web version, your résumés sit in AI Drive and older reports in Interview Reports on the website, so download anything you want to keep before you delete.

Final Round AI refund policy in plain words

Final Round AI offers a 3-day (72-hour) money-back guarantee on initial and renewal charges for all subscription plans, including monthly plans. To qualify, all of these must be true:

Two smaller rules matter. For Stripe payments, the refund is reduced by the processing fees Stripe doesn't return, where the law allows, and the deduction is itemized on your confirmation. And an approved full refund also cancels future renewals and ends the paid access for that period. Final Round starts approved refunds within 5 to 7 business days, and Stripe refunds typically appear 5 to 10 business days after that.

After 72 hours, payments are final, except for refunds required by law, duplicate or mistaken charges, and case-by-case approvals for verified technical problems on accounts without substantial use. Not getting a job offer is not a reason for a refund. The full text is in Final Round AI's Refund Policy.

Tip: If you're still inside the 72 hours and want your money back, send the refund email first. The clock stops when you send it, and an approved full refund cancels future renewals for you.

FAQ

How do I cancel my Final Round AI subscription?

As of October 2026, open the Final Round AI desktop app, go to Settings → Account & Billing and select Manage subscription. Subscription management opens in your browser, where you complete and confirm the cancellation. Opening the portal alone does not cancel anything, so finish every step and check the effective date.

Does cancelling Final Round AI give me a refund?

No. Cancelling stops future charges but does not refund the current billing period, and it does not submit a refund request. To get money back, email hi@finalroundai.com within 72 hours of the charge with your account email, charge date, plan type and reason.

How long do I have to ask Final Round AI for a refund?

72 hours from the charge, for initial and renewal charges on any subscription plan. The deadline is met when you send the email. The guarantee works once per customer and only if the billing period shows no substantial use.

What counts as substantial use for a Final Round AI refund?

At least two interview sessions in the current billing period that each lasted more than 30 minutes. A session of exactly 30 minutes does not count. If you reach that threshold, the 72-hour guarantee no longer applies to that charge.

Can I cancel Final Round AI on my phone?

Final Round AI's FAQ describes cancelling only through the desktop app's Settings → Account & Billing → Manage subscription, and its terms name Stripe as the payment processor without mentioning App Store or Google Play billing. If you can't open the desktop app, email support@finalroundai.com.

How do I delete my Final Round AI account?

On the website, sign in, open Account settings, find Danger Zone, select Delete Account and confirm with Delete My Account. Deletion is permanent, so cancel the subscription and download any résumés or reports you want to keep before you delete.

Is Final Round AI's Interview CoPilot the same as CoPilot Interview?

No. Interview CoPilot is the name of Final Round AI’s product. CoPilot Interview is a separate desktop app made by NeuraSense AI LLC, and it is not affiliated with Final Round AI, Microsoft Copilot or GitHub Copilot.
