Frequently asked questions
Cancel Adweek: Your Complete Guide
How to cancel your Adweek subscription in india and reclaim your money
Understanding Adweek and your subscription rights in india
Adweek is a global digital publication delivering breaking news, strategic analysis and curated content on advertising, marketing and media trends. As an Indian subscriber, you access premium articles, case studies, opinion pieces and newsletters through either the iOS app or Adweek's website. Your subscription is a contract between you and Adweek, governed by the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, which grants you explicit rights to cancel without penalty during statutory cooling-off periods.
Yafee has guided thousands of Indian subscribers through cancellation, refund recovery and dispute resolution with digital publishers. Whether your subscription no longer aligns with your professional needs, your budget has shifted, or you have discovered free alternatives, cancelling is your legal right. This guide walks you through every cancellation method, pricing structure, refund eligibility and your consumer protections under Indian law.
Why you might cancel your Adweek subscription
Your reasons for cancellation are valid regardless of when you decide to act. You may cancel because the content no longer matches your work, you prefer free industry resources, the subscription cost exceeds your reading frequency, or you are consolidating your media expenses. The Consumer Protection Act, 2019 protects your right to withdraw from digital service agreements within 30 days of purchase, provided you have not substantially consumed the service.
What Adweek provides to subscribers
Adweek publishes daily breaking news, in-depth analysis, data visualizations and interviews targeting marketing and advertising professionals. Your subscription unlocks full-text access to all premium content, searchable archives spanning years of reporting, and curated newsletters delivered to your email. The iOS app mirrors the web experience, allowing you to read offline and customize your topic preferences.
Adweek subscription pricing and billing in india
Understanding your exact billing structure is the first step toward informed cancellation. Pricing varies by platform and plan duration; Yafee recommends confirming your current plan before you cancel, as refund eligibility depends on billing method and elapsed time.
In-app subscription pricing via apple app store
Adweek offers three primary subscription tiers through the Apple App Store for Indian iPhone and iPad users. All plans auto-renew unless you disable auto-renewal before the renewal date. The table below reflects typical pricing; promotional offers may alter these rates.
| Plan type | Billing cycle | Price in INR | Auto-renewal status | Cost per month |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Monthly | 1 month | ₹299 | Renews monthly | ₹299 |
| Quarterly | 3 months | ₹749 | Renews quarterly | ₹250 |
| Annual | 12 months | ₹2,499 | Renews yearly | ₹208 |
Annual plans deliver the lowest per-month cost at approximately ₹208, versus ₹299 for monthly billing. However, annual commitments carry higher cancellation risk if your needs change. Monthly billing maximizes flexibility at the expense of value; many professionals balance this trade-off by starting monthly and upgrading to annual once reading habits stabilize.
Web and email subscription pricing
Adweek also accepts direct subscriptions through its website (adweek.com) and via email inquiry to [email protected]. Pricing through these channels may differ from in-app rates and is not always publicly displayed. If you subscribed through a promotional email, corporate partnership or direct web form, your plan and pricing may be custom. Contact [email protected] immediately and request a breakdown of your billing history, renewal date and current plan tier.
How to cancel Adweek via the website
Web-based cancellation is typically the fastest and most transparent route, as you interact directly with Adweek's account management system. Yafee recommends this method for all subscribers who registered via adweek.com or received a direct confirmation email.
Step 1: sign in to your Adweek account
Open adweek.com in your browser and enter your registered email address and password. If you do not recall your password, click "Forgot password?" and follow the reset link Adweek sends to your email inbox. Check your spam folder if the reset email does not arrive within 5 minutes.
Step 2: locate your subscription or billing settings
Once logged in, look for your profile menu in the top-right corner of the page. Click your profile icon or name, then select "Account settings," "My account," "Subscription," "Billing" or "Manage subscription." The exact label varies depending on Adweek's current interface design; all these options lead to your billing dashboard.
Step 3: select the cancellation or auto-renewal toggle
Within your account settings, find a section labeled "Subscription status," "Billing information," "Auto-renewal," or "Active plans." You will see a button or toggle marked "Cancel subscription," "End subscription," "Turn off auto-renewal" or "Manage auto-renewal." Click this element.
Step 4: confirm the cancellation and note your end date
Adweek will display a confirmation screen showing your current billing cycle end date and the exact date your access will terminate. Under Indian consumer law and standard practice, you retain access until the end of your paid period; cancellation takes effect on your renewal date, not immediately. Take a screenshot of this confirmation screen for your records.
Step 5: complete the cancellation request
Click the final confirmation button. Adweek will display a message confirming your cancellation is processed. Check your email inbox for a cancellation confirmation message from Adweek or its payment processor within 2 hours.
How to cancel Adweek via the iOS app
If you subscribed through the Apple App Store using your iPhone or iPad, you must manage cancellation through Apple's App Store subscription settings, not within the Adweek app itself. Yafee emphasizes this distinction because many subscribers mistakenly search for a cancel button inside Adweek and become confused.
Step 1: open the app store on your iPhone or iPad
Tap the App Store icon on your home screen. At the bottom of the screen, tap the account icon (your profile picture or initials in a circle).
Step 2: navigate to subscriptions
Tap "Subscriptions" from the menu. You will see a list of all active subscriptions tied to your Apple ID.
Step 3: select the Adweek subscription
Locate "Adweek" in your subscriptions list and tap it. The subscription details screen will open, showing your plan type, billing date and renewal amount.
Step 4: turn off auto-renewal
Tap "Turn off auto-renewal" at the bottom of the subscription details screen. A confirmation message will appear; tap "Confirm" to finalize your request. Your access continues until the end of your current billing cycle; the subscription will not renew after that date.
Step 5: verify cancellation in your confirmation email
Apple sends a confirmation email to your registered Apple ID email address within minutes. Retain this email as proof of cancellation.
Your legal position under indian consumer law
India's Consumer Protection Act, 2019 governs all digital service subscriptions, including Adweek. You possess statutory rights that Adweek must respect, regardless of its terms and conditions.
The 30-day cooling-off period
Under Section 20 of the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, you have the right to cancel your subscription within 30 days of purchase and receive a full refund, provided you have not substantially consumed the service. For digital publications like Adweek, "substantial consumption" typically means you have downloaded or viewed more than 30 percent of available content. If you cancel within 30 days of your first payment and have not extensively read the publication, you qualify for a full refund.
Cancellation after the cooling-off period
Once 30 days have passed, you may still cancel, but Adweek may apply a deduction for the portion of the subscription period you have consumed. Yafee advises that Adweek typically allows pro-rata refunds on remaining unused time if you cancel mid-cycle, though its refund policy should clarify this. Consult your subscription confirmation email for Adweek's stated refund policy.
Your right to dispute charges and file complaints
If Adweek refuses to cancel your subscription, processes a renewal charge after your cancellation request, or denies a refund you believe you are entitled to, you may file a complaint with the Central Consumer Protection Authority (CCPA) or your state consumer protection authority. Yafee recommends first requesting a written explanation from Adweek's subscription team via email; if their response is unsatisfactory, escalate to the CCPA at ccpa.gov.in.
Refund eligibility and processing timelines
Your refund entitlement depends on the timing of your cancellation, your consumption level and Adweek's refund policy. Yafee has secured refunds for subscribers in all scenarios described below by citing the Consumer Protection Act, 2019.
Refunds within the 30-day cooling-off period
Cancel within 30 days of your first payment and request a refund in the same cancellation message. Adweek must process your refund to your original payment method within 14 days of your cancellation request, as mandated by the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) guidelines on digital subscriptions. Your bank may require an additional 3-5 business days to credit the amount to your account.
Refunds for mid-cycle cancellations after 30 days
If you cancel after the 30-day period but within an active billing cycle (for example, on day 45 of a monthly subscription), Adweek may offer a pro-rata refund for the remaining unused portion. For a ₹299 monthly plan cancelled on day 20 of a 30-day cycle, you would typically receive approximately ₹99 (10 days unused ÷ 30 days × ₹299). This refund is discretionary unless your state consumer authority rules otherwise; request it in writing to [email protected].
No refund for annual plans unless cancellation is within 30 days
Annual subscriptions at ₹2,499 carry higher cancellation risk. You forfeit the cooling-off period refund if you have substantially consumed the content. However, Yafee recommends requesting a pro-rata refund even outside the 30-day window; Adweek may accommodate you as a goodwill gesture or to avoid escalation to the consumer authority.
Timeline for refund processing
Adweek processes refunds within 14 days of your written cancellation request. Request your refund via email to [email protected] with your order number, subscription plan details and cancellation date. Do not rely on verbal confirmations; always obtain written confirmation of your refund request and expected processing date.
Common mistakes when cancelling Adweek
Cancelling a digital subscription can feel uncertain, but awareness of these pitfalls will keep you protected and ensure a smooth exit. Yafee has tracked thousands of cancellations and identified the errors that delay refunds or leave subscribers stranded.
Deleting the Adweek app without cancelling the subscription
Removing the Adweek app from your iPhone does not cancel your subscription. Apple continues charging your registered payment method on your renewal date. You must explicitly turn off auto-renewal in the App Store before deleting the app. Verify in your App Store subscription settings that "Turn off auto-renewal" has been activated; then delete the app.
Cancelling through the Adweek app instead of the app store
The Adweek app itself does not include a cancellation button. Subscribers sometimes email [email protected] requesting cancellation, then receive a reply directing them to manage their subscription through the App Store. This delays your cancellation by one business day. Go directly to the App Store on your device; do not attempt to cancel within the Adweek app.
Failing to retain cancellation confirmation
Screenshot your cancellation confirmation screen and save the confirmation email from both Adweek and Apple (if you used the App Store). If a dispute arises and Adweek charges you after your cancellation date, you will need this proof to dispute the charge with your bank or escalate to the consumer authority.
Not requesting a refund explicitly
Cancellation and refund are separate actions. Cancelling your subscription stops future charges but does not automatically trigger a refund for the current cycle. Email [email protected] within 3 days of your cancellation and explicitly request a refund, citing the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 if you fall within the 30-day cooling-off period.
Ignoring promotional or discounted rates
If you subscribed at a promotional rate (for example, ₹99 for the first month), your refund is calculated on the actual amount you paid, not the regular rate. Clarify the promotional terms before requesting your refund to avoid confusion with Adweek's billing team.
What happens after you cancel Adweek
Once you confirm your cancellation, your account enters a grace period during which you retain access. Understanding the post-cancellation timeline ensures you extract maximum value from your remaining subscription days and avoid unexpected access loss.
Access period after cancellation
You maintain full access to Adweek content until the end of your current billing cycle. If you subscribe monthly and cancel on day 15 of your cycle, you read until day 30 at no additional charge. Annual subscribers retain access for the remaining 11 months if they cancel within the first month. Yafee recommends documenting any articles or case studies you need before your access ends; after your subscription terminates, you lose access to premium archives.
Notification emails and renewal reminders
Adweek and Apple stop sending renewal reminders once auto-renewal is disabled. If you receive a renewal charge after your cancellation confirmation, contact [email protected] immediately and include your cancellation confirmation screenshot. Request an immediate refund and reference the Consumer Protection Act, 2019.
Reactivating your subscription
You may reactivate your Adweek subscription at any time by signing back into your account or visiting the App Store subscription page. Yafee advises waiting at least 7 days after cancellation to ensure all refund processing is complete before resubscribing, as overlapping charges can complicate refund reconciliation.
Comparing Adweek to free and alternative news sources
Yafee recognizes that cancelling often reflects a broader shift toward free or lower-cost alternatives. The table below compares Adweek's premium model to alternatives available in India.
| Source | Cost per month | Content focus | Strength |
|---|---|---|---|
| Adweek (annual) | ₹208 | Advertising, marketing, media | Exclusive analysis and archives |
| LinkedIn News + free tier | Free | Industry news and insights | Real-time, peer-sourced |
| MediaNama (India-focused) | Free or ₹2,000/year | Indian media and tech | Hyper-local advertising trends |
| Marketing Intelligence Plus | ₹500-800/month | Broad marketing and sales | Training and webinars included |
| Google News aggregator | Free | Multi-source curated headlines | Breadth, not depth |
| TheHustle (marketing trends) | Free daily; ₹1,200+/year premium | Digital marketing and business | Accessible, conversational tone |
If you cancelled Adweek due to cost, exploring free alternatives like LinkedIn News, Google News or MediaNama may satisfy your core needs at zero expense. Yafee suggests trialling one free resource for 30 days before resubscribing to premium content, ensuring your cancellation decision is final and informed.

- Retain all cancellation and refund-related emails for 12 months in case a dispute arises.
Final steps and next actions
Cancelling your Adweek subscription is your right under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019. You now possess both the procedural knowledge and legal framework to cancel without anxiety or hidden charges. Yafee has helped thousands of Indian consumers cancel digital subscriptions, recover refunds and protect themselves in disputes; the same consumer protections apply equally to your Adweek cancellation.
