1

Log in to Cursor

Go to cursor.com in your web browser and sign in with the account that has the Pro subscription.

Go to Your Account Settings

Navigate to your account settings or billing page. You can also access this from within the Cursor editor by going to Cursor Settings and looking for the billing or subscription section.

3

Click Manage Subscription

Find and click the Manage Subscription button. This will take you to the billing portal where you can view your plan details and billing history.

Cancel Your Subscription

Select the option to cancel your subscription and confirm. Make sure to cancel at least 24 hours before your renewal date to avoid being charged for the next billing cycle. Your Pro features remain active until the end of your current period.

Alternative: Cancel by Email

If you cannot find the Manage Subscription button or encounter any issues, you can email [email protected] to request cancellation. Include the email address associated with your Cursor account.

What Happens After You Cancel Cursor Pro?

Pro features stay active until your billing period ends

Cursor does not remove Pro access immediately. You can continue using all AI features including unlimited completions and premium model access until the end of your current billing cycle.

You are downgraded to the free Hobby plan

After your billing period ends, your account reverts to the free Hobby plan. This gives you a limited number of AI completions and chat messages per month, but the core editor functionality remains the same.

Your editor settings and projects are unaffected

All your editor configurations, themes, extensions, keybindings, and workspace settings are stored locally on your machine. They are completely unaffected by your subscription status.

Cancel 24 hours before renewal

Cursor requires cancellation at least 24 hours before your renewal date to prevent being charged for the next cycle. Check your billing page for the exact renewal date.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I lose my Cursor settings after canceling?

No. Your editor settings, extensions, themes, keybindings, and workspace configurations are all stored locally on your computer. They are not linked to your subscription and remain exactly the same after canceling.

Can I still use Cursor after canceling Pro?

Yes. Cursor has a free Hobby plan that gives you access to the editor with a limited number of AI completions and chat requests per month. The editor itself, including all VS Code-compatible features, works without a subscription.

Can I cancel Cursor Pro by email?

Yes. If you have difficulty finding the cancellation option in your account settings, you can email [email protected] with your account email and request cancellation. This is an officially supported method.

What is the difference between the Hobby and Pro plans?

The Hobby (free) plan includes a limited number of AI completions and chat interactions per month. Pro offers unlimited fast completions, access to premium AI models, and higher usage limits for chat and agent features.
