Frequently asked questions
Cancel Dashlane: Your Complete Guide
How to cancel Dashlane in new zealand: your complete legal guide
What Dashlane is and how it works
Dashlane is a password manager that encrypts and stores your login credentials, then auto-fills them across websites and apps on your behalf. The service operates as a recurring software subscription with both free and paid tiers. Premium plans unlock additional security features including a built-in VPN, dark web monitoring, and secure credential sharing across multiple devices.
You can access Dashlane via web app on your computer or through iOS and Android mobile applications. The service synchronises your password vault across all your devices, ensuring your credentials remain accessible wherever you log in. Dashlane's architecture relies on zero-knowledge encryption, meaning the company cannot access your stored data.
How Dashlane billing works in new zealand
Dashlane operates two separate billing channels. If you signed up directly through Dashlane's website, Dashlane themselves process your subscription and charge your payment method. Consequently, you cancel directly with Dashlane. If you purchased via Apple App Store or Google Play, Apple or Google controls your subscription billing and refunds, not Dashlane. Your cancellation method depends entirely on your purchase channel.
This distinction matters legally. Under the Consumer Guarantees Act (1993), your rights and refund eligibility differ depending on whether you transact with Dashlane or a third-party app store. Yafee recommends checking your purchase receipt immediately to confirm your billing source.
Dashlane plans and pricing in new zealand
| Plan name | Price (NZD) | Billing cycle | Key features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Premium annual | NZD $160-$180 | 12 months | Unlimited passwords, VPN, dark web monitoring, all devices |
| Premium monthly | NZD $18-$22 | 30 days | Unlimited passwords, VPN, dark web monitoring, all devices |
| Premium Family | NZD $25-$28 per month | Monthly or annual | Up to 6 family members, separate vaults, emergency access |
| Free tier | Free | Ongoing | Store and auto-fill passwords, security audit tools |
Exchange rate fluctuations mean your actual NZD charge may vary slightly. Always verify the exact amount on your latest invoice or payment confirmation before you proceed with cancellation.
Your consumer rights when cancelling Dashlane
New Zealand consumer law grants you specific protections when purchasing digital services like Dashlane, regardless of what the company's terms state. Understanding these rights ensures you recover your money fairly if the service fails or if you cancel within protected timeframes.
Consumer guarantees act protection
The Consumer Guarantees Act (1993) mandates that Dashlane supply their password manager with reasonable care and skill, and that the service remains fit for purpose throughout your subscription. If Dashlane fails to do so-for example, if passwords fail to sync reliably between devices, the VPN disconnects without warning, or dark web monitoring misses a genuine credential breach-you hold the right to request a refund or service correction regardless of Dashlane's stated refund policy.
Furthermore, if you purchased Dashlane online, you benefit from a 14-day cooling-off right under the Consumer Guarantees Act. This applies even if Dashlane's own terms omit a cooling-off notice. You can cancel within 14 days of your purchase date for any reason or for no reason, and you are entitled to recover your full payment.
Your legal position
You hold enforceable rights as a New Zealand consumer. Dashlane cannot override these rights through their terms and conditions. If Dashlane refuses your cancellation or refund claim unjustly, you escalate to the Disputes Resolution Scheme (DRS), New Zealand's independent dispute resolver funded by participating businesses. The service is free to consumers and carries no cost. You may also lodge a complaint with Consumer NZ for guidance on your legal options.
Raising a complaint if Dashlane refuses
If Dashlane declines your cancellation request or denies a refund claim you believe is valid, escalate immediately. The Disputes Resolution Scheme provides free dispute resolution and investigates complaints against trading entities. You can also contact Consumer NZ for free information on your rights and next steps. Yafee advises retaining all receipts, transaction identifiers, and email records of your cancellation request-these strengthen your case if escalation becomes necessary.

Step 1: open google play and access subscriptions
- On your Android device, open the Google Play Store app

Refunds and what happens after cancellation
Your refund eligibility depends on when you cancel and your purchase channel. Understanding the timeline protects your money and prevents confusion about your access status.
Refund eligibility under new zealand consumer law
You qualify for a full refund if you cancel within 14 days of your purchase date, provided you purchased online and Dashlane did not supply a statutory cooling-off notice at the point of sale. This 14-day right applies regardless of Dashlane's terms. If you cancel after 14 days, refund eligibility depends on whether Dashlane failed to provide the service as promised. In that event, the Consumer Guarantees Act entitles you to a refund even outside the cooling-off window.
App Store purchases follow Apple or Google's refund policies. Apple typically grants refunds for purchases within 14 days. Google Play offers a 48-hour refund window from purchase. Yafee recommends requesting your refund immediately if you qualify, as delays may exceed these windows.
What happens to your access after cancellation
- You retain access to your Dashlane vault until the end of your current billing period (e.g., until the end of the month for monthly plans, until the 12-month anniversary for annual plans)
- Your passwords remain encrypted and stored in Dashlane's servers during this period
- After your access expires, you lose the ability to log in unless you export your passwords before the expiration date
- You can export your passwords in CSV format through Dashlane Settings before your access ends
Exporting your passwords before access expires
- Sign in to your Dashlane account on www.dashlane.com or the mobile app
- Navigate to Settings > Data > Export Passwords
- Dashlane generates a CSV file containing your encrypted credentials
- Download this file and store it securely on your device
- You can then import this file into another password manager of your choice
Common mistakes when cancelling Dashlane
Cancellation is straightforward once you know the right steps. Many people accidentally delay their cancellation or miss refund windows through simple oversights-fortunately, these are entirely preventable.
Mistake 1: cancelling through the wrong platform
If you signed up via the App Store but you attempt to cancel through Dashlane's website, your cancellation fails. Conversely, if you signed up through Dashlane's website but you try to cancel through Google Play, nothing happens. You must cancel through the same platform where you subscribed. Check your original purchase receipt to confirm your purchase channel before you proceed.
Mistake 2: forgetting to export your passwords
Once your subscription expires, you permanently lose access to your password vault unless you export your credentials beforehand. Export your passwords to a CSV file through Dashlane Settings at least 7 days before your billing cycle ends. Store this file securely and import it into an alternative password manager.
Mistake 3: not requesting a refund after cancellation
Cancelling your subscription does not automatically trigger a refund if you qualify for one. You must separately request a refund through your payment provider (Dashlane for direct website purchases, Apple for App Store subscriptions, Google for Google Play subscriptions). Do this within 14 days of your purchase date to comply with the Consumer Guarantees Act cooling-off period.
Mistake 4: losing your cancellation confirmation email
Retain your cancellation confirmation email. If you later need to escalate a complaint to the Disputes Resolution Scheme, this email proves you requested cancellation on a specific date. Save this email to a separate folder or print it as a backup.
