Cancel Funimate: Step-by-Step Guide
How to cancel Funimate and stop unexpected charges in new zealand
What is Funimate and why new zealand users cancel
Funimate is a mobile video editing application that enables you to create short-form creative content with effects, transitions, and music overlays. The app attracts dance creators, social media producers, and video hobbyists who want quick editing tools. You access a free version with basic features, and a PRO subscription tier that unlocks advanced effects and removes usage limits.
If you subscribed to Funimate's PRO tier during a promotional trial or as a paid plan, you may now wish to disconnect. Whether you have found a more effective editing tool, concluded that video creation no longer fits your needs, or simply want to reduce monthly app spending, cancelling your Funimate subscription is a straightforward process. At Yafee, we help thousands of New Zealand consumers take control of their subscriptions and prevent unexpected charges accumulating on their accounts.
Common reasons for cancellation
You may cancel Funimate for several reasons. Many subscribers discover that the free tier covers all their editing needs without premium features. Others switch to desktop software for more sophisticated video production. Some users cancel because they notice repeated billing charges they did not authorise or forget they have an active subscription until they review their bank statement.
The financial impact of inactive subscriptions
Each billing cycle costs you money in New Zealand dollars. If you no longer use Funimate actively, that monthly charge represents funds you could redirect to other priorities. The longer you delay cancellation, the more charges accumulate on your account. Stopping those charges immediately is one of the easiest ways to improve your personal budget.
Your consumer rights under new zealand law
Your right to cancel a subscription is grounded in the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993, which protects you when you purchase goods or services in New Zealand, including digital subscriptions like Funimate.
What the consumer guarantees act protects
Under the Consumer Guarantees Act, you have the right to cancel a subscription service if the provider has not made their cancellation terms clear before you purchased. The legislation requires that cancellation methods must be as simple as the method you used to subscribe. Consequently, if you subscribed to Funimate through a single tap on your mobile device, the provider must offer you a cancellation method that is equally straightforward.
Furthermore, if Funimate charged you after you submitted a valid cancellation request, you have grounds to dispute those charges with your bank or payment provider. The Commerce Commission, New Zealand's consumer protection regulator, enforces these rights and investigates complaints when businesses breach the Consumer Guarantees Act.
Your legal position when cancelling
You are entitled to cancel your Funimate subscription at any time. If you subscribed via the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, the platform operator (Apple or Google) processes your cancellation request and must honour it within one billing cycle. You retain the right to access your account content even after cancellation. Additionally, if Funimate or its payment processor charges you after you have cancelled, you can request a refund from your bank through a chargeback dispute, or report the matter to the Commerce Commission if the company refuses to process refunds.
Cancellation methods available to new zealand users
Your cancellation route depends on where you subscribed to Funimate.
Cancelling through the apple app store
If you subscribed via an iPhone or iPad, Apple manages your billing relationship and you must cancel through your Apple ID settings, not within the Funimate app itself.
Step one: open apple ID settings
Start by opening the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad. Tap your name at the very top of the Settings menu to access your Apple ID profile card.
Step two: navigate to your subscriptions
Select "Subscriptions" from the menu. This section displays all active subscriptions, cancelled subscriptions, and expired subscriptions tied to your Apple ID account.
Step three: locate and select Funimate
Find "Funimate" in your subscriptions list and tap it to open the details screen for that subscription.
Step four: cancel the subscription
Tap "Cancel Subscription" at the bottom of the Funimate details screen. Apple may display a discount offer or invitation to extend your trial; you can disregard these offers and proceed with cancellation by confirming your choice when prompted.
Step five: confirm cancellation
Confirm your cancellation choice in the dialogue that appears. Apple will send you a confirmation email to your registered Apple ID email address within minutes.
Important timing note: Write down your Funimate subscription renewal date before you cancel (this date is visible on the subscription details screen). This renewal date is the last day you retain access to PRO features; after it passes, your account reverts to the free tier. If you cancel during a free trial, your access ends immediately. If you cancel after your trial has ended and you have already been charged, you keep PRO access until the end of your current billing period, which is usually one calendar month.
Cancelling through the google play store
Android users manage subscriptions through the Google Play Store, which handles billing independently from the Funimate app itself.
Step one: open the google play store app
Launch the Google Play Store application on your Android device. Tap the profile icon in the top right corner of the screen.
Step two: access your account settings
Select "Manage your Google Account" from the menu. Navigate to the "Subscriptions" tab in the menu bar at the top of the screen.
Step three: find Funimate in your active subscriptions
Scroll through your list of active subscriptions and tap "Funimate" to open its subscription details page.
Step four: cancel the subscription
Tap "Cancel subscription" at the bottom of the Funimate subscription details page. Google may offer a retention incentive; you can disregard this and proceed with cancellation.
Step five: confirm your cancellation request
Confirm your choice in the dialogue that appears. Google will send you a confirmation notification to your registered Google account email address.
Important timing note: On the Google Play Store, your cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle. You retain access to PRO features until your renewal date arrives. Google will display your cancellation date and final access date on the subscription details screen.
What happens after you cancel Funimate
Cancelling your Funimate subscription does not delete your account or remove content you have created.
Your account access after cancellation
Your Funimate account remains active and accessible. Any videos you have edited and saved stay on your device and in your cloud account. You revert to the free tier of the app after your final billing cycle concludes. You can continue using Funimate's free features indefinitely after cancellation without any additional charges.
Billing stops after your final cycle
Apple or Google stops charging you once your current billing period ends. No further charges will appear on your bank statement or credit card after your renewal date passes. If an unexpected charge appears after cancellation, you have grounds to dispute it with your bank. At Yafee, we recommend checking your bank statement one week after your expected final billing date to confirm the charges have stopped.
Refund eligibility and dispute procedures
You may be entitled to a refund if Funimate or its payment processor charges you after you submitted a valid cancellation request.
Refunds for charges after cancellation
If you cancelled Funimate and a charge still appeared on your account, contact your bank immediately. Most banks allow you to dispute unauthorised or unwanted charges through a chargeback process. You provide your bank with evidence of your cancellation (such as a screenshot of your subscription settings or the confirmation email from Apple or Google), and your bank investigates the charge.
In accordance with New Zealand banking standards, your bank typically resolves chargeback disputes within 10 working days. If the charge is found to be unauthorised or the merchant failed to honour your cancellation, your bank refunds the amount to your account.
Escalation to the commerce commission
If Funimate or your bank refuses to process a refund, you can lodge a formal complaint with the Commerce Commission. The Commission operates a free dispute resolution service for New Zealand consumers and has authority to investigate charges that breach the Consumer Guarantees Act. You can submit a complaint through the Commission's website using their online complaint form.
Pricing structure and billing cycles
Understanding Funimate's pricing helps you anticipate your final charge and track when billing stops.
| Plan type | Cost per cycle | Billing frequency | Cancellation window |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free tier | No charge | N/A | No subscription to cancel |
| PRO subscription (trial) | Free for trial period | Typically 3 to 7 days | Cancel before trial ends to avoid first charge |
| PRO subscription (monthly) | NZD $5 to $9 per month | Monthly (30 days) | Cancel anytime; charge stops after current cycle |
| PRO subscription (annual) | NZD $35 to $60 per year | Yearly | Cancel anytime; charge stops at next renewal date |
| PRO subscription (discounted offer) | Variable (promotional pricing) | Monthly or yearly | Cancel anytime; standard terms apply |
Prices may vary depending on regional promotions and the payment platform. Yafee recommends checking your subscription details screen in Apple Settings or Google Play to confirm your exact billing amount and cycle length.
Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling
Cancelling a subscription is simple, but small oversights can delay the process or leave you vulnerable to unexpected charges.
Mistake one: cancelling inside the Funimate app instead of through your payment platform
Many users mistakenly look for a cancellation button within the Funimate app itself. Funimate does not process cancellations through its own interface. If you subscribed via Apple App Store, you must cancel through Apple Settings. If you subscribed via Google Play Store, you must cancel through Google Play. Attempting to cancel within the Funimate app will not stop your billing. Always navigate to your payment platform's subscription management page to cancel.
Mistake two: not noting your renewal date
After you tap "Cancel Subscription," your subscription details screen displays your final renewal date. This is the last day you have access to PRO features. If you do not write this date down, you may forget when your access expires and believe you still have access when the free tier has begun. Set a phone reminder one day before your renewal date so you know when your PRO access ends.
Mistake three: cancelling during your free trial without understanding the terms
If you cancel a free trial, you lose access to Funimate immediately-your trial does not extend to the end of the trial period. If you want to keep your trial access for the full duration, wait until two days before the trial ends to cancel so you keep access until the final day. However, if your trial has already ended and you have been charged, cancelling at that point keeps your access until the end of your current billing cycle.
Mistake four: deleting the Funimate app instead of cancelling the subscription
Deleting the Funimate app from your device does not cancel your subscription. Your billing continues in the background. You must cancel through Apple Settings or Google Play to stop charges, then delete the app if you wish. Yafee has helped thousands of New Zealand consumers avoid being charged months of unexpected fees because they deleted the app without cancelling the subscription first.
How to check if your cancellation was successful
Verify that your cancellation took effect by reviewing your subscription status and bank charges.
Confirmation steps on iOS
Open Settings, tap your name, select "Subscriptions," and find Funimate. The status should display "Expires on [date]" or "Cancelled" rather than "Active." If the status still shows "Active" after 24 hours, your cancellation did not process. In that case, repeat the cancellation steps. You should also receive a confirmation email from Apple to your registered Apple ID email address.
Confirmation steps on android
Open Google Play Store, tap your profile icon, select "Manage your Google Account," navigate to "Subscriptions," and find Funimate. The status should display "Cancelled" with an expiry date listed. Check your email for a cancellation confirmation from Google. If the status still shows "Active," your cancellation request did not complete, and you must repeat the process.
Bank statement verification
One week after your expected renewal date, check your bank statement to confirm no new charges from Funimate or Apple/Google have appeared. If an unexpected charge does appear, document it with a screenshot and contact your bank to dispute it within 30 days of the charge.
Comparison: cancelling other video editing subscriptions
If you use multiple creative apps, understanding how cancellation differs across platforms helps you manage multiple subscriptions efficiently.
| App name | Cancellation method | Refund policy | Difficulty level |
|---|---|---|---|
| Funimate | Apple Settings or Google Play | None (charge stops at renewal) | Easy |
| CapCut | Apple Settings or Google Play | None | Easy |
| Adobe Premiere Elements | Adobe account website or app | Refund within 14 days of purchase | Medium |
| InShot Pro | Apple Settings or Google Play | None | Easy |
| Filmora | Filmora account website | Refund within 30 days | Medium |
Contact information for Funimate support
If you encounter technical issues during cancellation or need to contact Funimate directly, the company does not maintain a physical address in New Zealand. Funimate's global developer address is located in Turkey. Consequently, for billing disputes, your most effective recourse is to contact your payment platform (Apple or Google) or escalate to the Commerce Commission if the company fails to honour your cancellation request.
You can attempt to reach Funimate's support team through their in-app support option or their global email contact, though response times vary. Nevertheless, cancelling directly through Apple Settings or Google Play is the most reliable method and requires no direct contact with Funimate itself.
Summary and next steps
Cancelling Funimate in New Zealand is a straightforward process that takes fewer than five minutes. If you subscribed via Apple App Store, navigate to Settings, select your name, choose Subscriptions, find Funimate, and tap "Cancel Subscription." If you subscribed via Google Play Store, open the Play Store app, tap your profile icon, select "Manage your Google Account," go to Subscriptions, find Funimate, and tap "Cancel subscription." Your charges stop at the end of your current billing cycle, and you retain access to your account and content after cancellation.
Your rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 ensure that cancellation must be as simple as subscription. If Funimate continues to charge you after you have cancelled, dispute the charges with your bank or report the matter to the Commerce Commission. At Yafee, we have helped thousands of New Zealand consumers cancel unwanted subscriptions and recover unexpected charges. Take control of your digital spending today and eliminate subscriptions that no longer serve your creative goals.
