How to Cancel MyFans: Subscriptions, Refunds, and Account Deletion
Intro
The single most common billing complaint about MyFans isn't the pricing — it's people getting charged again after they thought they'd cancelled. That happens because cancelling a subscription and deleting your account are two completely separate actions, and doing one doesn't do the other.
Cancelling a subscription vs. deleting your account
- Cancelling a subscription stops future charges for one specific creator's plan. Your account stays active, and you can resubscribe later.
- Deleting your account removes your MyFans account entirely — including purchase history and access to anything you bought.
- Most people only need the first one. If you just want the charges to stop, don't delete your account: keeping it means you can come back later without starting over.
- Important: you generally need to cancel all active subscriptions before you can delete your account.
How to cancel a subscription
- Go to your account page and open your list of active plans.
- Find the creator's plan you want to stop and select the cancel option for that specific plan.
- Confirm when prompted.
A few things that trip people up:
- Unfollowing a creator is not cancelling. These are separate actions — unfollowing leaves the subscription (and the charge) running.
- Deleting the app doesn't cancel anything. The subscription lives on your MyFans account, not on your device.
- Premium membership is cancelled separately. If you have a MyFans premium membership alongside creator plans, it appears in a different part of your plan list and has to be cancelled on its own. Cancelling one does not cancel the other.
- Cancel before the renewal date, not on it. Give yourself at least a day of margin.
Refunds: what to expect
- MyFans does not offer prorated refunds. If you cancel mid-cycle, you don't get money back for the unused portion.
- Reports differ on whether you keep access until the end of the paid period or lose it at the moment you cancel — this may vary by plan type. Because of that uncertainty, the safe approach is to finish watching what you want before cancelling, rather than assuming you have until the renewal date.
- Individually purchased (PPV) content is different. Content you bought outright stays accessible after you cancel a subscription — you only lose it if you delete your account entirely. If you're not sure how PPV differs from a subscription, the content types guide covers it.
Deleting your account
- Deletion is permanent: your account data, purchase history, and access to purchased content are all lost.
- You can register again afterward, but nothing from the old account carries over.
- Cancel all active plans first, or the deletion flow may not let you proceed.
If cancellation isn't working
Most "I can't cancel" cases turn out to be one of the mistakes listed above — usually unfollowing instead of cancelling, or missing a premium membership sitting in a separate section of the plan list. Check those first. If you've verified all of that and it still won't go through, contact MyFans support directly rather than letting another billing cycle run.
