Cancel Plenty of Fish Step by Step
Open the {name} app
Launch Plenty of Fish on your phone. Most dating apps handle subscriptions exclusively through the app, though some also allow cancellation at pof.com.
Go to your Profile or Settings
Tap your profile icon or the gear/settings icon. Navigate to Account, Subscription, or Manage Membership.
Tap Cancel Subscription
Find Cancel Subscription or Manage Subscription. Plenty of Fish will probably try to keep you with offers or show you how many "likes" you'll lose access to. Stay strong if you want to cancel.
Cancel through Apple/Google if needed
If you subscribed through the App Store or Google Play (most people do), you'll need to cancel there instead. The app will redirect you, or follow the Apple/Google steps below.

What Happens After You Cancel Plenty of Fish?
Your premium features end at the billing period
After canceling, you lose premium features like unlimited swipes, seeing who liked you, or boost visibility. Your profile stays active on the free tier.
Your matches and conversations are kept
Canceling premium doesn't delete your matches or chat history. You can still message existing matches on the free plan.
Consider deleting your profile separately
If you want to fully leave Plenty of Fish, go to Settings > Delete Account after canceling your subscription. Canceling the subscription alone leaves your profile visible.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will I keep my matches after canceling Plenty of Fish premium?
Yes, your matches and conversations remain. You just lose premium perks like unlimited likes, seeing who viewed your profile, and advanced filters.
How do I delete my Plenty of Fish account entirely?
Canceling premium is different from deleting your account. To fully remove your profile, go to Settings > Account > Delete Account (or similar). This removes your profile, matches, and data permanently.
Can I get a refund for Plenty of Fish?
Plenty of Fish generally doesn't offer refunds for dating subscriptions. If you subscribed through Apple, you can request a refund at reportaproblem.apple.com. Google Play refunds can be requested within 48 hours of purchase.
