Frequently asked questions
Cancel Linkvertise: Step-by-Step Guide
How to cancel your Linkvertise account and stop paying for link monetisation
Why you might want to cancel Linkvertise
Linkvertise positions itself as a link monetisation platform designed to help content creators earn revenue from shared links. In practice, many subscribers discover that the reality falls short of the marketing promise. You may have started with the free tier to test whether link monetisation aligns with your content strategy, only to find that upgrading to a paid plan rarely delivers the earnings you were led to expect.
The decision to cancel Linkvertise typically stems from straightforward financial reasoning. After several months of operation, you realise that the subscription fees, combined with the impact of intrusive advertisements on your audience experience, create a negative return on investment. Many creators find that the revenue generated through Linkvertise link redirects fails to justify the ongoing monthly costs, particularly when considering the trust erosion caused by ad-heavy user experiences.
Yafee understands that cancelling a subscription service demands clarity and confidence. This guide walks you through every step of removing yourself from Linkvertise, protecting your rights as a UK consumer, and recovering any money you are entitled to reclaim.
When earnings don't justify the subscription cost
You upgrade to Linkvertise's paid tiers expecting enhanced monetisation features and better analytics. In practice, many subscribers discover that daily click volumes remain insufficient to generate meaningful income above the monthly subscription cost. If you are spending £20-50 monthly and earning less than that through link clicks, your financial incentive to continue evaporates quickly.
Competitor platforms offering better value
Alternative link shortening and monetisation services frequently provide superior revenue-sharing arrangements, transparent analytics dashboards, or less intrusive advertising models. Once you identify a competitor platform better suited to your traffic patterns and audience expectations, maintaining a Linkvertise subscription becomes wasteful spending you can eliminate immediately.
Your consumer rights under UK law
Your legal position is protected by the Consumer Rights Act 2015, which grants you specific entitlements when cancelling digital services and subscription agreements in the United Kingdom.
Under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 (which implement the Consumer Rights Directive), you have the right to cancel any distance contract (including online subscriptions) within 14 calendar days of purchase, without penalty and without providing a reason. This "cooling-off period" applies to your initial subscription purchase and any renewal that you did not actively consent to in advance.
Furthermore, the Consumer Rights Act 2015 requires that Linkvertise provides you with clear, transparent terms before you purchase. If Linkvertise fails to display its cancellation procedure prominently, or if the terms are deliberately obscured, you may have grounds to cancel regardless of how long you have been subscribed.
Yafee recommends that you keep records of all communications with Linkvertise, including confirmation emails, billing statements, and any cancellation requests you submit. These documents form your evidence should you need to escalate a complaint to the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA), which enforces consumer law across the United Kingdom.
The cooling-off period explained
If you subscribed to Linkvertise within the last 14 days and have not yet used the service extensively, you can cancel and request a full refund without justification. You must submit your cancellation request in writing (email is acceptable) and Linkvertise has 14 days to process your refund. The company must return your money to your original payment method within this period.
Cancellation rights after the cooling-off period
After 14 days have passed, you retain the right to cancel at any time, provided that Linkvertise has made its cancellation procedure clear in its terms and conditions. You are entitled to cancel with one month's notice (or whatever notice period Linkvertise specifies in its contract), and you should not be charged any penalty for doing so. If Linkvertise charges you a cancellation fee, demands a lengthy notice period, or makes cancellation deliberately difficult, you can lodge a complaint with the CMA.
Linkvertise subscription pricing and what you are paying for
Understanding your current financial commitment with Linkvertise proves essential before you initiate cancellation.
| Subscription tier | Estimated monthly cost | Key features included | Break-even traffic |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | £0 | Basic link shortening, standard advertisements, limited analytics | Not applicable |
| Starter | £8-12 | Reduced advertisement display times, improved analytics, basic customisation | 100+ daily clicks |
| Professional | £20-30 | Custom domain options, priority support, enhanced revenue sharing | 300+ daily clicks |
| Business | £50+ | White-label branding, API access, dedicated account support | 1000+ daily clicks |
Identifying your current subscription level
Before you cancel, verify which subscription level you are currently paying for by logging into your Linkvertise account dashboard. Navigate to your account settings or billing section to confirm your monthly recurring charge. Note the exact amount and billing date, as this information becomes crucial when claiming refunds under UK consumer law.
Calculating your return on investment
Perform this simple calculation to assess your true return on investment. Take your monthly subscription cost and divide it by your average daily clicks across the past three months. If the result shows you earn less than your subscription fee, cancellation is financially sensible. Yafee advises documenting this calculation before you cancel, as it strengthens any refund claim you may pursue.
Methods to cancel your Linkvertise account
Linkvertise provides multiple cancellation routes, though the company does not always advertise them prominently.
Cancellation through your account dashboard
Log into your Linkvertise account and navigate to Settings or Account Management. Look for a Billing, Subscription, or Payments section. Most modern subscription services display a "Cancel subscription" or "Manage plan" button here. Click this button and follow the on-screen prompts. Linkvertise may offer you a discount or pause option before final cancellation; ignore these unless you genuinely wish to continue. Confirm your cancellation and request a confirmation email from Linkvertise for your records.
Cancellation via email contact
If the dashboard cancellation option is unavailable or non-functional, email Linkvertise's customer support team. Use the email address listed on the Linkvertise website or in your account settings. In your email, state clearly that you wish to cancel your subscription, provide your account ID or email address, and specify your preferred cancellation date. Request a written confirmation of cancellation and ask Linkvertise to confirm the effective date when charges will stop. Keep a copy of this email for your records.
Chargeback and payment provider cancellation
If Linkvertise does not respond to your cancellation request within 7 days, or if the company refuses to cancel, you can instruct your bank or payment provider to block recurring payments. Contact your bank and inform them that you wish to cancel the Linkvertise subscription. Your bank can place a stop on the recurring payment instruction, preventing Linkvertise from charging you further. This action is legal under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and provides you with protection if Linkvertise continues to bill you after your cancellation request.
Step-by-step cancellation process
Follow these steps in order to cancel your Linkvertise subscription cleanly and protect your right to a refund.
- Log into your Linkvertise account
- Visit the Linkvertise login page and enter your email address and password
- If you have forgotten your password, use the "Forgot password" link to reset it
- Ensure you are logged into the correct account if you manage multiple Linkvertise profiles
- Locate your subscription and billing settings
- Click on your account icon or profile menu, usually in the top right corner
- Select "Settings", "Account", "Billing", or "Subscription" from the dropdown menu
- Look for a section labelled "Plan", "Membership", or "Subscription status"
- Review your current plan and costs
- Note your subscription tier, monthly cost, and the date your next charge is due
- Confirm that you are cancelling the correct plan if you have multiple subscriptions
- Take a screenshot of this page for your records before proceeding
- Initiate cancellation
- Click the "Cancel subscription", "Change plan", or "Manage subscription" button
- If prompted, select a reason for cancellation (this is optional, but Linkvertise may use it to offer discounts)
- Decline any discount offers or pause options unless you genuinely wish to continue
- Confirm your cancellation request
- Review the cancellation summary, which should confirm the effective date charges will stop
- Click "Confirm cancellation" or "Yes, cancel my plan"
- Wait for a confirmation message on screen and a confirmation email from Linkvertise
- Verify cancellation via email
- Check your inbox for a cancellation confirmation email from Linkvertise within 24 hours
- This email should state the effective cancellation date and confirm that no further charges will be applied
- If you do not receive a confirmation email within 48 hours, contact Linkvertise support to confirm cancellation
- Monitor your payment method
- Check your bank statement or credit card statement on your next scheduled billing date
- Confirm that Linkvertise does not charge you again after your cancellation date
- If you are charged after cancellation, contact your bank immediately to dispute the charge
Claiming a refund for Linkvertise
Your right to a refund depends on when you cancel and the specific terms of your subscription agreement.
Refunds within the 14-day cooling-off period
If you subscribed within the last 14 calendar days, you are entitled to a full refund under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, regardless of whether you have used the service. Submit your cancellation request in writing (email is acceptable) and explicitly state that you are exercising your right to cancel within the cooling-off period. Linkvertise must refund your payment within 14 days of receiving your cancellation request. If the company delays or refuses this refund, you can escalate to the CMA or your payment provider.
Refunds after the cooling-off period
Once the 14-day cooling-off period has ended, you are not automatically entitled to a refund when you cancel your subscription. However, if Linkvertise has charged you for the current month and you cancel before using the service significantly, you can request a pro-rata refund (a partial refund for the unused portion of your billing period). Send an email to Linkvertise stating your case clearly: "I cancelled my subscription on [date], which was [number] days into my billing period. I request a pro-rata refund of £[amount] for the unused days of service."
Disputing charges with your payment provider
If Linkvertise refuses to refund you and you believe you are entitled to one, contact your bank or payment provider and request a chargeback. Provide your bank with evidence of your cancellation request, confirmation of cancellation, and copies of billing statements. Your bank will investigate your dispute and may recover the funds on your behalf. Yafee advises keeping all documentation of your cancellation request and Linkvertise's response, as this evidence is essential when disputing charges with your bank.
Timeline for cancellation and refunds
Understanding the timescale for cancellation helps you plan your finances and take action promptly if Linkvertise fails to process your request.
| Action | Timeframe | Your next step if delayed |
|---|---|---|
| Submit cancellation request | Immediate (same day) | Request written confirmation from Linkvertise |
| Receive cancellation confirmation email | Within 24-48 hours | Contact support if not received; escalate after 7 days |
| Charges stop (within cooling-off period) | Within 1 billing cycle | Monitor bank statement; dispute with bank if charged |
| Refund issued (cooling-off period) | Within 14 days of cancellation | Contact CMA or bank if refund not received |
| Charges stop (after cooling-off period) | On next billing date or within 7 days | Contact bank to block recurring payments |
What happens after you cancel Linkvertise
Cancelling your subscription does not immediately delete your account or remove your monetised links from circulation.
Access to your account after cancellation
You retain access to your Linkvertise account and your link analytics for a limited period after cancellation, typically 30 days. During this window, you can download your link performance data and export any statistics you wish to keep. After 30 days, Linkvertise may deactivate your account and delete your data. If you require your link analytics for business or tax purposes, download this information immediately after cancelling.
What happens to your monetised links
Links you created through Linkvertise will continue to redirect visitors to their intended destinations, but you will no longer earn revenue from clicks on these links. Linkvertise's advertisement overlay may persist for a period after cancellation, though this varies. If you wish to remove Linkvertise from your links entirely, you must replace the Linkvertise URLs with direct links or links from an alternative monetisation service.
Switching to an alternative service
Before you cancel Linkvertise, identify and set up an alternative link monetisation platform if you wish to continue earning from shared links. Yafee advises comparing features, payout rates, and cancellation terms across alternative services before committing to a new subscription. Update your existing shared links to point to the new platform to avoid losing revenue during the transition period.
Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling
Cancelling a subscription should be straightforward, but preventable mistakes can cost you time and money. Here are the pitfalls to sidestep.
Failing to save your confirmation email
After you cancel, Linkvertise sends a confirmation email stating the effective cancellation date. If you later dispute a charge or need evidence that you cancelled, this email is your proof. Save this email to a dedicated folder and print a copy if possible. If Linkvertise claims it has no record of your cancellation, your confirmation email overrides the company's denial.
Cancelling during a free trial without checking your card details
If you started with a free trial, cancelling before the trial ends prevents Linkvertise from charging you. However, you must confirm that your payment card was not automatically authorised during sign-up. Check your account settings to verify whether your card is linked and whether automatic renewal is enabled. If you discover that Linkvertise has already charged you for a plan you did not intend to purchase, contact the company immediately and invoke your cooling-off right.
Ignoring charges after cancellation
If Linkvertise charges you after your cancellation date, do not assume the charge will be reversed automatically. Contact the company immediately and demand a refund. If Linkvertise does not respond within 7 days, contact your bank to dispute the charge. The longer you wait, the harder it becomes to recover your money.
Cancelling on the wrong account
If you manage multiple Linkvertise accounts (perhaps for different projects or brands), ensure you are cancelling the correct subscription. Log out, then log in again using the email address of the account you intend to cancel. Verify that the account name, subscription tier, and billing amount match your records before clicking cancel.
Not checking for hidden auto-renewal clauses
Some subscription agreements include auto-renewal clauses that trigger unless you actively opt out. Review Linkvertise's terms and conditions before you cancel and search for any mention of "auto-renewal", "automatic renewal", or "recurring charges". If such a clause exists and you have not explicitly consented to it, you may have grounds to claim that Linkvertise has breached the Consumer Rights Act 2015.
Comparing Linkvertise to alternative monetisation platforms
Before you cancel, consider whether an alternative service might deliver better value.
| Platform | Monthly cost | Key advantage | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Linkvertise | £8-50+ | Flexible tier options | Established creators with high traffic |
| Bit.ly | Free or £29+ | Industry-standard analytics and API integration | Agencies and developers |
| Rebrandly | Free or £20-100 | Custom branding and white-label options | Businesses prioritising brand consistency |
| Ow.ly (Hootsuite) | Free or part of £35+ suite | Integration with social media management tools | Social media marketers |
| TinyURL | Free | Simplicity and reliability; no monetisation but no cost | Low-volume users; non-commercial links |
Address for formal complaints and escalation
If Linkvertise refuses to process your cancellation or honour your refund request, you can escalate your complaint to the relevant authorities in the United Kingdom.
Escalation to the competition and markets authority
The CMA enforces consumer protection law across the UK and investigates breaches of the Consumer Rights Act 2015. If Linkvertise has made cancellation deliberately difficult, concealed its cancellation procedure, or refused to refund you within the cooling-off period, lodge a formal complaint with the CMA. You can file a complaint online at the CMA's website or by post to:
Competition and Markets Authority
Victoria House
37 Southwark Street
London SE1 9QQ
United Kingdom
Include copies of all correspondence with Linkvertise, your cancellation request, and your billing statements. The CMA will investigate and may force Linkvertise to refund you and amend its terms if the company has acted unlawfully.
Chargeback through your bank
If Linkvertise continues to charge you after your cancellation date, your bank's dispute resolution process (called a chargeback or reversal) provides a faster remedy than waiting for a regulatory investigation. Contact your bank within 60 days of the disputed charge and provide evidence of your cancellation request. Your bank will review the evidence and may recover your money within 30-60 days.
Small claims court action
If the amount you are disputing is under £10,000, you can pursue a claim against Linkvertise through the Small Claims Court. This route is low-cost and does not require a lawyer, but it demands that you provide clear evidence of your cancellation request, your refund entitlement, and the company's breach of contract. You would file your claim at the County Court serving the area where Linkvertise operates.

Use this checklist to ensure you have taken all necessary steps before you submit your cancellation request.

- Identify an alternative monetisation service if you wish to continue earning from shared links
- Update any links shared across your website, social media, or email to point to your new platform
- Check the date you subscribed to determine whether you are still within the 14-day cooling-off period
- Review Linkvertise's cancellation terms in its terms and conditions to understand your notice period
- Submit your cancellation request through your account dashboard or via email to support
- Take a screenshot of the cancellation confirmation page and save the confirmation email
- Check your bank statement 7 days after your cancellation date to confirm Linkvertise does not charge you again

Final summary and next steps
Cancelling your Linkvertise subscription is your right as a UK consumer, protected by the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013. You can cancel at any time, either through your account dashboard or by email to Linkvertise's support team. If you subscribed within the last 14 days, you are entitled to a full refund without question. After 14 days, you may cancel with reasonable notice, though you are not automatically entitled to a refund unless you have not yet used the service significantly.
Document every step of your cancellation: save confirmation emails, record the cancellation date, and monitor your bank statement to ensure Linkvertise does not charge you again. If the company fails to process your cancellation or refuses a refund you are entitled to claim, escalate your complaint to your bank first (for an immediate chargeback), then to the Competition and Markets Authority if necessary.
