How to cancel Bumble Premium or Boost
Cancel where you paid. With Apple, open Settings, tap your name, then Subscriptions and Bumble, and tap Cancel Subscription. On Google Play, use the Subscriptions list in the Play Store. If you paid Bumble by card, PayPal or Apple Pay, cancel in the app under Subscription details. Your paid perks last to the end of the period.




Find out who bills you
Bumble's help center states the rule up front: "How you cancel your Bumble Boost, Premium, or Premium+ subscription depends on how you signed up and your payment method." That leaves three places.
| Who bills you | Where the cancel button lives |
|---|---|
| Apple (you subscribed through the App Store) | Settings → your name → Subscriptions → Bumble |
| Google Play (you subscribed on Android) | The Play Store app → profile icon → Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions → Bumble |
| Bumble itself (you paid by PayPal, credit or debit card, or Apple Pay) | The Bumble app → profile icon → Subscription details → Manage your subscription |
Not sure which one is yours? Bumble says the start and renewal dates show in the place you bought the plan: the Subscriptions list at Apple or Google Play, or Subscription details in the Bumble app. Consumables, such as SuperSwipes and Spotlights, are single-use features, not a plan, so the steps below are for Boost, Premium and Premium+.
How to cancel Bumble on iPhone
Apple manages App Store plans, so these are the steps to cancel any subscription on iPhone:
- Open Settings.
- Tap your name at the top.
- Tap Subscriptions.
- Find and select Bumble.
- Tap Cancel Subscription.
No Cancel button, or an expiration message in red text? Apple says the subscription is already canceled.
How to cancel Bumble on Android
- Open the Google Play Store app.
- Tap your profile icon, then Payments & subscriptions, then Subscriptions.
- Select Bumble.
- Tap Cancel Subscription.
That is Google Play's list of your subscriptions, the same one you use to cancel any Google Play subscription. Bumble adds that Google Play may show a small preauthorization charge before renewal, Google's check that your account can cover the payment.
How to cancel if Bumble bills you directly
A plan paid by PayPal, credit or debit card or Apple Pay is canceled in Bumble:
- Open the Bumble app.
- Tap the profile icon.
- Select Subscription details, then tap Manage your subscription.
- Choose to cancel your subscription.
If you can't get into Bumble to cancel it yourself, Bumble asks you to contact its support team.
When the charges stop
Bumble's rule for renewals: "Your subscription will renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the renewal date." For a trial subscription billed by Apple, Apple's rule is the same: cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends. The trial guide compares services.
After you cancel, Bumble says you'll keep your paid perks until the end of your subscription date. Its refund article gives the detail: "Canceling a subscription stops the next renewal, but you can usually keep access until the end of the period you've already paid for."
Refunds
Canceling is not a refund. Bumble says eligibility depends on its Terms and Conditions, the platform, your location and what you bought, and the biller decides:
- Apple: "Apple manages payments and refund decisions for Bumble payments made through the Apple App Store." You ask at reportaproblem.apple.com.
- Google Play: open the Play Store, tap your profile, then Payments & subscriptions and Subscriptions, select the Bumble purchase and tap Request a refund.
- Card, Apple Pay, PayPal or Bumble Web: contact Bumble's support team with your order number, the email or mobile number on your account, your Bumble User ID, the payment method and a short reason.
If you ask for a refund, cancel the renewals separately too. "If Apple or Google Play approve a refund, you may lose access immediately."
Deleting the app or the account
Bumble says deleting the app won't delete your profile, and for an Apple plan "deleting your account won't automatically cancel your subscription", so you cancel in the App Store. Its delete-account article is broader: subscriptions may not cancel automatically, so cancel before you delete. Bumble can restore an accidental deletion for up to 28 days. On Android, Google's help page says "When you uninstall the app, your subscription won't cancel."
The mistake that keeps you paying
Canceling in the wrong place. Bumble's in-app steps cover plans paid by PayPal, card or Apple Pay, while a plan billed by Apple or Google Play is canceled in that store's list. Check which biller charges you, cancel there at least a day before the renewal, and keep the date where you will see it, with a reminder before the next charge.
Keeping Bumble? Keep the renewal date
Put Bumble in Subby with its renewal date, and the reminder arrives before the charge, well ahead of the 24 hour cutoff. Free to use, with ads, and no account or bank login.
