How to cancel Geozilla on your phone and stop recurring charges in malaysia
What is Geozilla and why you might want to cancel
Geozilla is a family location-tracking app sold as a recurring subscription service across Malaysia. The service charges you monthly or yearly to access premium features such as location history, real-time alerts, and driver protection. When you subscribe through the app store or directly via the web, your payment renews automatically unless you cancel before the next billing date.
How Geozilla premium works
Geozilla Premium is the paid tier that unlocks the tracking and safety tools. The app itself is free to download, but the premium features sit behind a paywall. In Malaysia, estimated pricing runs at RM 19.90 per month or RM 199.00 per year, though the exact amount on your card depends on your app store's local pricing, currency exchange, and any applicable taxes.
The service renews automatically on your billing date unless you cancel. This is a standard practice for subscription apps, but it also means the cancellation process matters. If you simply delete the app from your phone, you will not stop the charge. Your subscription will keep billing until you cancel through the correct channel.
Where the confusion happens
Most Geozilla cancellations get delayed because users try to cancel from the wrong place. If you subscribed through Google Play Store, you must cancel through Google Play Store, not inside the Geozilla app. If you subscribed through Apple App Store, you cancel through App Store settings, not the Geozilla account. If you signed up directly on the Geozilla website, you cancel through your web account instead.
Yafee has tracked complaints from Malaysian users who believed they cancelled but still received charges weeks later. The root cause is almost always signing in to the wrong account or using the wrong cancellation method. This guide walks you through each path so you cancel correctly the first time.
Your consumer rights in malaysia
As a consumer in Malaysia, your cancellation and refund rights fall under the Consumer Protection Act 1999. This law gives you the right to cancel a subscription service, and Geozilla's terms confirm there is no minimum contract period. You can cancel at any time, and the next charge will not occur after you successfully cancel.
What the consumer protection act 1999 protects
The Consumer Protection Act 1999 requires service providers to offer clear cancellation pathways and to honour cancellation requests without delay. If Geozilla charges your card after you have cancelled, you have a right to a refund. The law also requires the company to disclose billing terms upfront, which Geozilla does in its published Terms of Use.
In practice, this means Geozilla cannot legally charge you after you have cancelled, even if you still have the app installed. If an unwanted charge appears after cancellation, you can dispute it with your bank or card issuer, or escalate to the Federation of Malaysian Consumers Associations (FOMCA) if Geozilla refuses to refund.
Your legal position
You have the right to cancel your Geozilla subscription at any time without penalty. Once cancelled, no further charges will be applied. Any charges already billed are generally non-refundable under Geozilla's terms, unless you cancel within a specific window set by the app store (for example, Apple offers a 15-minute grace period after purchase). If Geozilla or the app store charges you after a confirmed cancellation, you can file a dispute with your bank, or contact FOMCA for assistance.
How to cancel Geozilla step by step
The path to cancellation depends on where you bought your subscription. Follow the method that matches your purchase channel to avoid cancelling in the wrong place.
Step 1: identify where you subscribed
Before you cancel, confirm which platform holds your subscription. Check your email for the original receipt or confirmation. If it came from Google Play, Apple App Store, or Stripe (Geozilla's payment processor), you will know your channel. This step takes one minute but prevents you from cancelling in the wrong account.
- Check your email for a receipt from Google Play, Apple, or GeoZilla
- Open your phone and look for the Geozilla app icon
- Note which app store (Google Play or App Store) hosts Geozilla on your device
Step 2: cancel through google play store (Android users)
If you subscribed via Google Play, this is the only place where your cancellation will work. Cancelling inside the Geozilla app will not stop the charge.
- Open Google Play Store on your Android phone
- Tap your profile icon in the top-right corner
- Select Manage subscriptions
- Find Geozilla in the list
- Tap Geozilla
- Select Cancel subscription
- Confirm the cancellation by choosing a reason (optional) and tapping Cancel subscription again
- Wait for a confirmation message confirming your subscription is cancelled
- Take a screenshot of the cancellation confirmation
Google Play will confirm the cancellation date and show the date of your final billing. Your access to Geozilla Premium will end on that date. No charge will occur after cancellation is confirmed.
Step 3: cancel through apple app store (iOS users)
If you subscribed via Apple, you cancel through your Apple ID settings, not the Geozilla app itself.
- Open Settings on your iPhone or iPad
- Tap your name at the top of the screen
- Select Subscriptions
- Find Geozilla in the list
- Tap Geozilla
- Select Cancel Subscription
- Confirm the cancellation on the next screen
- Save a screenshot showing the cancellation status
Apple will display the date your subscription cancels. Your final charge has already been processed for the current billing period. Future charges will not occur.
Step 4: cancel via the Geozilla website (web subscribers)
If you signed up directly on geozilla.com or through a promotional link that routed to their website, cancel through your Geozilla account online.
- Visit geozilla.com in your web browser
- Log in with the email and password you used at signup
- Navigate to Account or Subscription settings
- Find the Manage Subscription or Billing section
- Select Cancel Subscription or Cancel Renewal
- Confirm cancellation when prompted
- Take a screenshot of the confirmation page showing the cancellation date
Geozilla will send a confirmation email to your account email address. Keep that email. If a charge appears after this date, you will have proof of cancellation to share with your bank.
Step 5: check for a confirmation email
Within minutes of cancellation, you should receive a confirmation email from the app store or Geozilla. This email is your receipt for the cancellation. If you do not receive an email within 24 hours, log back into your account to verify the subscription status. A missing email does not mean the cancellation failed, but it is worth checking.
Pricing and billing timeline for Geozilla in malaysia
Understanding Geozilla's billing schedule helps you time your cancellation correctly and know when the final charge will hit.

These prices are estimates based on USD to MYR conversion (1 USD = ~RM 4.99) and may vary depending on your app store region settings, local taxes, or currency fluctuations at the time of billing. The exact amount on your card statement may differ by a few ringgit.
What happens after you cancel Geozilla
Once your cancellation is confirmed, your subscription enters a final period. During this time, you retain access to premium features until your current billing cycle ends. After that date, your access reverts to the free tier (if Geozilla offers one) or the app will no longer function as a premium service.
After cancellation confirmation
You can continue using Geozilla for the remainder of your current billing period. If you paid for a month, you have access until 30 days from your cancellation date. If you paid for a year, you keep access until the yearly date arrives. No refund applies for the unused portion of the subscription.
This is standard practice for subscription apps and is disclosed in Geozilla's terms. The Consumer Protection Act 1999 allows non-refundable charges for services already delivered, and since you have had access to the premium features, the company is not obliged to refund the full subscription amount.
Data and account settings
Geozilla does not clearly specify how long it retains your location data, family member connections, or device settings after cancellation. If you want to preserve any information (such as location history or family connections for reference), save screenshots or export data before the cancellation takes effect.
Once your subscription expires, you may lose access to view historical data. The safest approach is to document what matters to you while you still have premium access.
Refund policy and how to challenge an unwanted charge
Geozilla's published terms state that charges for a completed billing period are non-refundable. However, if you cancelled and were still charged, or if you dispute the charge, you have clear options under Malaysian law.
Non-refundable charges under geozilla's terms
Any charge already billed for a monthly or annual period is non-refundable unless you cancel within the grace period set by the app store (Apple offers 15 minutes; Google Play's grace period varies). This means if you subscribed on 1 January for a monthly plan billed at RM 19.90, and you cancel on 15 January, you will not receive a refund for the unused portion of January.
This policy complies with consumer law because you have received the service (access to premium features) during the billing period. The Consumer Protection Act 1999 permits non-refundable charges for completed services.
Disputing a charge after cancellation
If Geozilla charged you after you cancelled, you have two routes to recover the money:
- Contact your bank or card issuer immediately and dispute the charge as unauthorised. Provide your cancellation screenshot and confirmation email as evidence. Most banks process disputes within 14-30 days.
- Contact FOMCA (Federation of Malaysian Consumers Associations) if Geozilla refuses to refund after you have proven cancellation. FOMCA can formally lodge a complaint on your behalf.
Yafee recommends gathering evidence (screenshots, emails, and bank statements) before disputing. This speeds up the process and strengthens your case.
Common cancellation mistakes and how to avoid them
Cancellation troubles are almost always avoidable. Most users who report ongoing charges made a simple mistake at the wrong step. Knowing these pitfalls now means you will not face them.
Mistake 1: deleting the app instead of cancelling the subscription
The most common error is uninstalling Geozilla and assuming the subscription stops. It does not. Deleting the app removes the software from your phone but leaves the subscription active in your app store or Geozilla account. Your card will be charged on the next billing date, even though the app is gone.
Always cancel through the app store or Geozilla's website before deleting the app. The cancellation must happen in the same place you subscribed.
Mistake 2: cancelling in the wrong account
If you subscribed through Google Play but try to cancel inside the Geozilla app, the cancellation fails silently. You receive no error message. The app might show a "cancel" button, but it does not actually stop the recurring charge. The next billing date arrives, and your card is charged again.
Before cancelling, open your email receipt and confirm which service processed your payment: Google Play Store, Apple App Store, or Geozilla directly. Cancel there, not elsewhere.
Mistake 3: not saving proof of cancellation
If you close the cancellation confirmation screen without saving a screenshot, and a charge later appears, you will struggle to prove you cancelled. Screenshot the confirmation page, save the confirmation email, and write down the cancellation date. This takes 30 seconds and solves disputes instantly.
Mistake 4: cancelling too close to the billing date
If your billing date is tomorrow and you cancel today, your bank may have already processed the charge, or Geozilla may have sent the charge to the bank before processing your cancellation request. Check your subscription page for the exact billing date, then cancel at least 24 hours before.

Situations requiring support contact
Contact Geozilla support if your cancellation button is missing or greyed out, if you cancelled but still received a charge, or if your account is locked. Yafee recommends emailing support rather than using in-app chat, because email creates a written record for disputes.
Access Geozilla's support portal at support.geozilla.com or use the help section inside the app. Include your account email, order number, and a screenshot of your billing history when you contact them.
Summary and next steps
Cancelling Geozilla is straightforward once you identify where you subscribed. The three main paths are Google Play (Android), Apple App Store (iOS), or the Geozilla website. Each takes under five minutes, and each provides immediate confirmation.
The key is to cancel before your next billing date and save proof. Your consumer rights under the Consumer Protection Act 1999 protect you if an unwanted charge occurs after cancellation. If Geozilla charges you after a confirmed cancellation, dispute it with your bank or escalate to FOMCA.
