Cancellation guide

How to cancel Dropbox

A clear, step-by-step guide to cancelling your Dropbox Software, plus the things worth checking before you leave.

Before you cancel

  • There's no fixed contract, so you can cancel anytime. Your access simply runs to the end of the period you've paid for.
  • Expect to be offered a retention discount or loyalty deal to make you stay. If you're sure you want to cancel, stand your ground.
  • Cancel before your next renewal date to avoid being charged for another period.
  • If you subscribed through Apple, Google or another provider, you must cancel with them, not Dropbox directly.
  • Get a confirmation (on-screen or by email) and keep it as proof of the date you cancelled.

How to cancel Dropbox, step by step

  1. Log in at dropbox.com.
  2. Click your avatar (profile picture or initials) in the bottom-left corner and select 'Manage account'.
  3. Click 'Cancel plan' at the bottom of the page (or 'Change plan' if you only want to downgrade to a cheaper plan).
  4. Select a cancellation reason, then click 'Continue canceling' and follow the prompts to confirm.
  5. Look for the 'Dropbox Plan will not renew' confirmation email from [email protected].
