Cancel Linear via Workspace Settings

1

Log in to Linear

Go to linear.app in your web browser and sign in. Make sure you are logged in as a workspace administrator, since only admins can modify billing and plan settings.

2

Open Workspace Settings

Navigate to Settings from the left sidebar. Under the settings panel, look for the Workspace section. This is where plan and billing management options are located.

3

Go to Plans or Billing

Click on Plans or Billing within the Workspace settings. This page shows your current plan tier, billing cycle, and payment details. You can view and change your subscription from here.

4

Cancel Your Subscription

Select the option to cancel your subscription or downgrade to the free plan. Follow the confirmation prompts. The cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period. You will retain full access until then.

What Happens After You Cancel Linear?

You keep access until your billing period ends

Linear does not cut off access immediately. You retain full access to all paid features until the end of your monthly or annual billing period.

All your data is preserved

Your issues, projects, cycles, roadmaps, and all workspace settings remain intact. Nothing is deleted when you cancel. You can continue to access everything on the free plan.

No refunds for unused time

Linear does not provide prorated refunds for cancellations. If you cancel mid-cycle, you retain access until the period ends but do not receive any money back.

Free plan has member limits

Linear's free plan supports a limited number of team members. If your workspace exceeds the free plan member limit, some features may be restricted. Consider this before canceling if you have a large team.
