Frequently asked questions
Cancel Dashlane: Step-by-Step Guide
How to cancel Dashlane in canada and claim your refund
Why you might cancel Dashlane
Dashlane is a password manager and digital vault that stores login credentials, offers autofill functionality, provides secure password sharing, monitors the dark web for breaches, includes VPN access, and protects against phishing attacks. You can use it across web browsers, iOS, and Android devices. If you've signed up and discovered the service doesn't align with your security needs, Yafee is here to guide you through cancellation with clarity and precision grounded in Canadian consumer law.
You might cancel because you've found a password manager that better suits your workflow, because Dashlane's premium features aren't delivering the value you expected, or because you're tightening your digital subscription budget. Whatever your reason, understanding your legal rights and the step-by-step cancellation process protects you from unexpected charges and ensures you recover your money if you qualify for a refund.
Common reasons for cancellation
Many users cancel after the trial period ends and realize the paid tier isn't essential for their security needs. Others switch to competitors offering better pricing or feature sets tailored to their workflow. Some users upgrade their device ecosystem and find Dashlane no longer fits their ecosystem, or they consolidate tools by choosing an alternative that integrates with their existing password management system. Your reason matters only to the extent that it helps you determine which cancellation method to use.
What stays and what goes when you cancel
Cancellation stops your automatic renewal and prevents future charges on your billing date. Your account remains active until your current billing cycle ends, so you retain access to your stored passwords and vault throughout that period. Cancellation does not automatically delete your account or passwords. If you want to permanently remove your vault, you must manually delete your account through settings after cancellation takes effect.
Understanding dashlane's pricing and your billing cycle
Your refund eligibility depends on your purchase location and the amount you paid, so reviewing your billing history is the first practical step.
| Plan | Price (CAD) | Billing cycle | Key features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Premium (annual, website) | $59.99 | Annual | Unlimited devices, passwords, VPN, dark web monitoring, phishing protection, secure sharing |
| Premium (monthly, website) | $4.99/month | Monthly | Same features as annual, billed monthly |
| Premium Family (annual, website) | $99.99 | Annual | Up to 10 accounts, all Premium features (VPN for primary account only) |
| Premium (App Store annual) | $79.99 | Annual | Same as website Premium, purchased through Apple |
| Premium (Google Play annual) | $79.99 | Annual | Same as website Premium, purchased through Google |
| Free tier | $0 | N/A | Password storage, autofill (limited to 1 device) |
Check your confirmation email or billing history to confirm which platform you used. This distinction is critical because your refund eligibility and cancellation process depend entirely on where you purchased the subscription.
Your consumer rights in canada
Canadian consumer protection legislation establishes your baseline rights when purchasing digital services, regardless of where Dashlane operates.
Dashlane's published refund policy
Dashlane's Terms of Service state that annual subscriptions purchased directly on dashlane.com qualify for a full refund if you request cancellation within 30 days of purchase or within 30 days of renewal. Monthly subscriptions purchased on the website are non-refundable after the purchase completes. This 30-day window is your primary leverage point for recovering your subscription fee.
Purchases made through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store fall under Apple's and Google's respective refund policies, not Dashlane's. Apple typically offers 14 days for app subscription refunds, while Google Play offers 48 hours. You must initiate refund requests through those platforms directly, though Dashlane support can assist by confirming your purchase history.
Your legal position under provincial law
Ontario's Consumer Protection Act, British Columbia's Consumer Protection Act, Alberta's Fair Trading Act, and equivalent statutes in other provinces protect you against unfair billing, hidden charges, and deceptive contract terms. These laws establish that digital service providers must make their cancellation terms transparent and accessible before you pay. If Dashlane refuses a refund you believe you're entitled to, you can file a complaint with your provincial consumer protection authority and escalate through small claims court if the refund amount justifies the legal cost.
Furthermore, the Competition Act enforced by the Competition Bureau protects you from misleading advertising and unfair business practices. If you discover that Dashlane misrepresented its features or billing terms, you have grounds to escalate beyond customer support to federal enforcement.

Step 2: access your account settings and billing
- Click your profile icon in the top right corner after logging in.
- Select "Settings" from the dropdown menu.
- Navigate to the "Subscription" or "Billing" tab on the left sidebar.
- Review your current subscription plan, renewal date, and payment method.
Step 3: initiate cancellation
- Locate the "Cancel subscription" button or link under your current plan details.
- Click to open the cancellation confirmation dialog.
- Review the summary showing your subscription end date (your access does not terminate immediately).
- Confirm the cancellation by clicking the final confirmation button.
Step 4: confirm and document cancellation

How to cancel Dashlane purchased through app store or google play
If you subscribed through Apple or Google, you must cancel through those platforms rather than through Dashlane's website. Each platform has different procedures and refund windows.
Cancelling through apple app store
- On your iPhone, iPad, or Mac, open the Settings app.
- Tap your name at the top of the Settings menu.
- Select "Subscriptions."
- Find "Dashlane" in the active subscriptions list.
- Tap "Dashlane" to open subscription details.
- Tap "Cancel Subscription" at the bottom of the screen.
- Follow the prompts to confirm cancellation.
- You receive an immediate on-screen confirmation; check your Apple email for a follow-up confirmation receipt.
Apple refunds app subscriptions within 14 days of the cancellation date if you initiated the request within 14 days of the original purchase or renewal. If you purchased more than 14 days ago, Apple will not refund the current billing period but will stop future charges.
Cancelling through google play
- Open Google Play on your Android device.
- Tap your profile icon in the top right corner.
- Select "Manage subscriptions."
- Find "Dashlane" in your active subscriptions.
- Tap "Dashlane" to view subscription details.
- Tap "Cancel subscription."
- Review the cancellation notice explaining when access ends.
- Confirm cancellation by tapping "Yes, cancel."
Google Play refunds subscriptions within 48 hours of cancellation if you request the refund within 48 hours of the purchase or renewal. Outside this window, Google will stop future charges but not refund the current billing period.
How to claim a refund if you qualify
Your refund eligibility depends on when you purchased and which platform processed the payment. Follow the correct procedure for your situation.
Refund request for website purchases within 30 days
- Visit dashlane.com/support or click "Help" in your Dashlane account settings.
- Select "Contact support" and choose "Subscription and billing" as your topic.

- Attach a screenshot of your cancellation confirmation.
- Submit the ticket and allow 5 to 10 business days for Dashlane's response.
- Dashlane processes approved refunds to your original payment method within 5 to 7 business days.

- Tap your profile icon, then select "Account Settings."
- Tap "Purchase history" and locate your Dashlane subscription.
- Tap the Dashlane transaction to open the receipt.
- Tap "Report a problem" and select "I'd like to request a refund."
- Choose "It doesn't match the description" or "I no longer want this" as your reason.
- Explain your situation in 50 to 100 words and submit.
- Apple reviews your request within 24 to 48 hours and responds via email.

After your cancellation takes effect
Cancellation is final, so understanding what happens next prevents confusion and lost password access.
Access and vault preservation during your final billing period
You retain full access to Dashlane and your password vault until the last day of your current billing cycle. If your renewal date was January 15 and you cancelled on January 5, you have access through January 14. Use this time to export your passwords or transition to an alternative password manager. On your final day of access, download your vault data or manually copy critical passwords to ensure you do not lose access to important accounts.
What happens to your account after billing ends
Once your billing cycle expires, your account downgrades to the free tier automatically. You retain access to the free features (password storage and autofill on one device), but you lose premium features including VPN, dark web monitoring, secure sharing, and unlimited device access. Your vault data remains in your account indefinitely unless you manually delete your account. If you want to permanently remove all your data, log in after downgrade and select "Delete account" in settings to remove your vault and all associated information.
Reactivating your subscription
If you cancel and then change your mind, you can reactivate your premium subscription at any time by logging in, navigating to settings, and selecting a subscription plan. Dashlane does not charge a reactivation fee; you pay the current price for a new subscription term. Your existing vault data, passwords, and account settings are preserved if you reactivate within one year of cancellation.
Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling
Cancelling correctly the first time prevents frustration and keeps money in your pocket.
Mistake 1: cancelling on the wrong platform
If you purchased through App Store but attempt to cancel through dashlane.com, your subscription does not cancel because the two systems are not linked. Check your original purchase confirmation email to confirm where you bought the subscription, then cancel through that exact platform. Cancelling in the wrong place leaves you with active charges while believing you are unsubscribed.
Mistake 2: failing to request a refund within the refund window
Dashlane requires refund requests within 30 days of purchase or renewal. Cancellation alone does not trigger a refund; you must separately request one through support. If your 30-day window has closed, Dashlane will decline your refund request even if you cancelled immediately. Yafee emphasizes that you should request a refund in writing as soon as you cancel if you qualify, rather than waiting to see if charges appear on your card.
Mistake 3: assuming cancellation deletes your passwords
Cancellation does not erase your vault or any stored passwords. Your data persists until you manually delete your account. If you cancel because you suspect a security breach or want to remove sensitive data, you must separately request account deletion or manually purge your vault before cancellation takes effect.
Mistake 4: not documenting cancellation confirmation
Store screenshots of your cancellation confirmation and any refund correspondence indefinitely. If Dashlane charges your card after cancellation (whether in error or due to a processing delay), you need proof of cancellation to dispute the charge with your payment provider or escalate with your provincial consumer authority.
How to escalate if Dashlane refuses to cancel or refund
Yafee recommends documenting every interaction if Dashlane disputes your refund claim or fails to process cancellation.
Step 1: request written clarification from support
- If support denies your refund request, reply in writing asking them to cite the specific contract term or reason for denial.
- Save their exact response.
- Do not accept verbal explanations; insist on written documentation.
Step 2: file a complaint with your provincial regulator
If Dashlane refuses to refund you and you believe you have a valid claim under your province's Consumer Protection Act, file a formal complaint with your provincial consumer authority. Each province maintains a consumer protection office that investigates unfair billing and contract disputes.
| Province | Enforcement body | Contact method |
|---|---|---|
| Ontario | Ontario Ministry of Government and Consumer Services | ontario.ca/consumer |
| British Columbia | BC Consumer Protection Office | consumerprotectionbc.ca |
| Alberta | Alberta Consumer Protection Act enforcement | aeso.ca |
| Quebec | Office of the Protecteur du consommateur | opc.gouv.qc.ca |
| Manitoba | Manitoba Consumer Protection Office | gov.mb.ca/consumer |
Step 3: dispute the charge with your credit card or bank
If Dashlane continues to charge your card after you cancelled, contact your credit card issuer or bank and report the charge as unauthorized. Provide proof of your cancellation confirmation and written correspondence showing Dashlane's refusal to refund. Your bank can initiate a chargeback dispute on your behalf within a set time window (typically 60 to 180 days depending on your institution).
Step 4: consider small claims court if the amount justifies it
If your refund claim exceeds $500 and Dashlane refuses arbitration or settlement, you can file a small claims action in your province's court. Most provinces allow claims up to $15,000 in small claims court without requiring a lawyer. Document all communications, retain copies of cancellation confirmations, and bring your evidence to court. The court awards refunds plus court costs if you win.
Comparison: keeping Dashlane versus cancelling
Before cancelling, consider whether adjusting your subscription level is more cost-effective than leaving the service entirely.
| Factor | Keep premium | Downgrade to free | Cancel and switch |
|---|---|---|---|
| Annual cost (CAD) | $59.99 | $0 | $0 (alternative service cost varies) |
| Devices supported | Unlimited | 1 device only | Depends on alternative |
| VPN access | Included | No | Depends on alternative |
| Dark web monitoring | Included | No | Depends on alternative |
| Secure password sharing | Included | No | Depends on alternative |
| Migration effort | None | None | High (export and re-import passwords) |
If you use Dashlane on multiple devices or rely on dark web monitoring, downgrading to the free tier maintains access without the premium features. Only cancel and switch if you've confirmed a competitor offers superior features at lower cost or better integration with your devices.
Sending formal cancellation notice by registered mail
For legal protection in disputes, you may send a formal cancellation notice by registered mail to Dashlane's office address. This creates an official record if the company later disputes your cancellation date or refund eligibility.
Where to send your notice
Dashlane maintains offices in the United States and France. Use the appropriate address based on your location:
- If you reside in Canada: Send to Dashlane's US office at 44 Tehama Street, San Francisco, CA 94105, United States. Use registered mail with signature required (available through Canada Post as "Xpresspost Signature" or "Priority Worldwide").
- If you purchased your subscription through dashlane.fr (the French site): Send to Dashlane's France office at 8 Rue de la Paix, 75002 Paris, France, using "Colissimo" or equivalent registered mail with signature required.
What to include in your formal notice
- Your full name and the email address registered with Dashlane.
- Your subscription plan (Premium annual, Premium monthly, or Premium Family).
- The date you purchased the subscription or the current billing cycle dates.
- A clear statement: "I hereby cancel my Dashlane subscription effective immediately."
- Your request for refund if you are within 30 days of purchase or renewal: "I request a full refund of [amount] as permitted under Dashlane's published refund policy."
- Your current mailing address for Dashlane's response.
- The date of the letter.
- Your signature (scanned copy if sent as a PDF).
Keep the tracking number and delivery confirmation from Canada Post indefinitely. Registered mail creates an official record that Dashlane received your cancellation notice on a specific date, which protects you if the company disputes your cancellation timing or refund eligibility.
Summary: your next steps
Cancelling Dashlane takes fewer than ten minutes if you follow the correct platform-specific steps. Yafee recommends you complete the following actions today:
- Check your purchase confirmation email to identify whether you bought Dashlane directly through dashlane.com, Apple App Store, or Google Play.
- If you qualify for a refund (purchase within 30 days for website purchases, or within 14 days for App Store or 48 hours for Google Play), initiate your cancellation and refund request immediately.
- Screenshot or print your cancellation confirmation and save any follow-up emails indefinitely.
- If support refuses your refund claim, contact your provincial consumer protection authority and provide documentation of your cancellation and the company's response.
- Export or manually copy any critical passwords from your Dashlane vault before your final access date expires.
Yafee has helped thousands of consumers cancel subscription services and recover refunds by grounding their claims in provincial consumer protection law and documenting every interaction. You are entitled to a refund if you meet the timeline and purchase requirements; do not accept a vague denial from customer support without written justification. Contact your provincial regulator if Dashlane refuses to honor Yafee's clear guidance and your legal rights under the Consumer Protection Act.
