Frequently asked questions
Cancel Openart: The Right Way to Recover Your Credits
How to cancel Openart and recover your unused credits in new zealand
What Openart is and why you might want to cancel
Openart is an AI-powered creative platform that generates images and artwork on demand. You access it via web browser or mobile app, and the service offers both free and paid tiers with credit systems and subscription plans. Most users subscribe to unlock premium image generation models, faster processing, and higher monthly credit allowances.
You might decide to cancel because you've completed a project, found a cheaper alternative, or simply want to pause your spending on creative tools. Whatever your reason, understanding how Openart charges you and what legal protections you hold under New Zealand law is essential before you take action.
How Openart charges you
Openart operates on flexible billing cycles. You can choose weekly, monthly, or annual subscriptions, or purchase a one-time lifetime unlock. This flexibility means cancellation timing matters: cancel mid-week in a weekly plan and you may forfeit remaining credits, while cancelling a yearly plan early could leave money on the table.
Understanding your billing date and plan type is the first step toward cancelling with confidence. If you're unsure which plan you're on, check your latest invoice or account settings before you proceed.
Why you should act now
Cancelling digital subscriptions can feel confusing, especially when the company has no obvious New Zealand office and your billing comes from overseas. Yafee has guided thousands of New Zealand consumers through exactly this situation, and we've developed a clear, step-by-step process to help you cancel Openart without losing money or getting caught in accidental renewal traps.
Your consumer rights under new zealand law
Before you cancel, you should know what protections the law gives you when dealing with overseas digital services.
Consumer guarantees act and digital services
Under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993, any service you pay for must be of acceptable quality and fit for purpose. If Openart's AI image generation consistently fails, produces poor outputs, or the platform crashes regularly, you may have grounds to request a refund-even if Openart claims "no refunds."
Companies cannot use blanket "no refund" policies to override your statutory rights. This is a critical legal lever. If Openart refuses a legitimate refund request and you believe the service failed to meet acceptable quality standards, you can escalate to the Commerce Commission, New Zealand's primary consumer regulator.
14-day cooling-off period for distance contracts
If you bought Openart through a distance contract (online, app, or by phone), you may have a 14-day right to cancel and receive a full refund simply because you changed your mind-not because the service failed. Openart's terms may try to exclude digital content from this rule, but New Zealand law is strict: the company must clearly disclose this exclusion upfront at the point of sale.
If you cancelled within 14 days and Openart refuses a refund, gather your evidence (sign-up date, cancellation date, screenshots of your account or email confirmation). Contact the Commerce Commission with this documentation. Yafee recommends recording every interaction because regulators take these cases seriously.
Fair trading act protections
The Fair Trading Act 1986 prohibits misleading conduct. If Openart's cancellation process is deliberately hidden, or if the company makes false claims about refund eligibility, you have recourse. A simple test: if a reasonable consumer would struggle to find the cancel button or understand when charges stop, that's potentially misleading conduct under the Act.
Your legal position
You hold statutory rights as a New Zealand consumer, regardless of where Openart's server sits. The Consumer Guarantees Act and Fair Trading Act apply to all traders, including overseas companies selling to you. If Openart ignores your cancellation request or refuses a refund you're legally entitled to, the Commerce Commission can investigate and take enforcement action on your behalf.
How to cancel Openart on web
Cancelling via the Openart website is usually the cleanest method because you deal directly with Openart, not Apple or Google's app store systems.
Step one: log in to your Openart account
- Open your web browser and navigate to openart.ai or your regional login URL.
- Enter your email address and password to sign in to your account.
- If you've forgotten your password, click "Forgot password?" and follow the reset email sent to your inbox.
Step two: access your account settings
- Once logged in, look for your profile icon or avatar, usually in the top-right corner of the screen.
- Click on the profile menu and select "Account settings" or "Settings."
- You may need to navigate to a "Billing" or "Subscription" tab within settings.
Step three: locate your subscription details
- In the Billing section, you will see your current subscription plan (weekly, monthly, or annual).
- Note your next billing date and your current plan type-this information is critical if you need to dispute charges later.
- Take a screenshot of this page for your records.
Step four: cancel your subscription
- Look for a "Cancel subscription" or "Manage subscription" button near your plan details.
- Click it. Openart may ask you to confirm your cancellation or offer a discount to retain you.
- If you wish to proceed, confirm the cancellation. Openart will send you a confirmation email-save this as proof.
Step five: verify your cancellation
- Check your email inbox (and spam folder) for a confirmation message from Openart.
- Return to your Account settings and confirm that your subscription status now shows "Cancelled" or "Inactive."
- You should no longer be charged after your current billing cycle ends.
How to cancel Openart on mobile app
Cancelling through the app depends on which app store you used to purchase your subscription.
Cancellation via iOS (Apple app store)
- Open the Apple App Store on your iPhone or iPad.
- Tap your profile icon in the top-right corner.
- Select "Subscriptions."
- Find Openart in your active subscriptions list and tap it.
- Tap "Cancel subscription" and confirm your choice.
- Apple will send you a cancellation confirmation email. Save it.
Cancellation via android (Google play store)
- Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device.
- Tap your profile icon in the top-right corner.
- Select "Manage subscriptions."
- Find Openart and tap it.
- Tap "Cancel subscription" and confirm your choice.
- Google will send you a cancellation confirmation email. Store this message safely.
Important note on app-based cancellations
When you cancel through Apple or Google, you are cancelling the app store's link to your Openart account. You should also cancel directly via the Openart website (Steps one through five, above) to ensure Openart's own systems reflect your cancellation. This dual cancellation protects you from accidental re-billing if the app store and Openart's systems fall out of sync.
What happens after you cancel
Cancellation is not instant-you must understand the timing to avoid unexpected charges.
When charges stop
Your subscription cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle. If you're on a monthly plan and cancel on the 15th, you will be charged again on your monthly due date, then charges will cease. You retain access to Openart until that date. Yafee advises checking your bank statement 5-7 days after your billing date to confirm no charge occurred.
Unused credits and refunds
Openart credits typically expire upon cancellation and cannot be refunded unless you have a legal right under the Consumer Guarantees Act. However, if you purchased an annual plan and cancel early (before 12 months), you have grounds to request a pro-rata refund of unused months. Write to Openart's support team with your calculation and explain your Consumer Guarantees Act rights.
If Openart refuses, escalate to the Commerce Commission with evidence of your purchase date, cancellation date, and refund request. Yafee has found that providing clear documentation of your pro-rata calculation significantly improves success rates.
Account access post-cancellation
You will retain read-only access to your account and any artwork you generated while subscribed. However, you will lose access to premium features and credit generation. Your free tier allowance may be reinstated.
Openart refund policy and your rights
Openart's stated refund policy may differ from your legal entitlements under New Zealand law.
What openart's terms typically say
Most digital service providers, including Openart, claim they do not offer refunds for digital products or services once access has been granted. They argue that digital content cannot be resold, so refunds are unfeasible. This clause does not override the Consumer Guarantees Act.
When you can demand a refund
| Circumstance | Your right | Action |
|---|---|---|
| Service quality is unacceptable (crashes, poor outputs) | Consumer Guarantees Act-right to refund, replacement, or repair | Contact Openart support with evidence; escalate to Commerce Commission if refused |
| Cancelled within 14 days of purchase (distance contract) | 14-day cooling-off right (if not excluded at point of sale) | Request full refund from Openart; escalate to Commerce Commission if refused |
| Annual plan cancelled early (pro-rata refund) | Expectation of fair value under Consumer Guarantees Act | Calculate unused months, request refund, provide calculation; escalate if refused |
| Subscription simply no longer wanted | No automatic right (unless within 14 days or service quality issue) | Cancel and lose remaining credits; no refund due |
| Misleading billing or hidden charges | Fair Trading Act-right to compensation and refund | Document evidence; contact Commerce Commission directly |
| Charged after cancellation confirmation | Consumer Guarantees Act and Fair Trading Act-unauthorized transaction | Dispute charge with your bank; provide cancellation email to Commerce Commission |
Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling
Cancelling a digital subscription is straightforward, but one misstep can leave you vulnerable to further charges or failed refund claims.
Mistake one: cancelling only on the app store
If you cancel your subscription through Apple or Google but not directly on Openart's website, Openart's own billing system may continue to charge you. Always cancel in both places to ensure both platforms show your subscription as inactive.
Mistake two: not saving your cancellation confirmation
Screenshot every step: your subscription details before cancellation, the cancellation confirmation page, and the confirmation email from Openart. If you later dispute a charge or claim a refund, your bank and the Commerce Commission will ask for proof of cancellation. Yafee recommends storing these files in a dedicated folder on your computer or cloud storage.
Mistake three: cancelling right before your billing date
If you cancel one day before your monthly billing date, you may still be charged. Aim to cancel at least 3-5 days before your next billing date to allow Openart's systems to process your cancellation in time.
Mistake four: assuming you cannot get a refund
Digital service providers often claim no refunds apply, but this is not always true under New Zealand law. If the service is genuinely defective, or if you cancelled within 14 days, you have a legal right to a refund. Yafee has helped thousands of consumers successfully recover funds by knowing their rights and stating them clearly in writing to the company.
Mistake five: not disputing unauthorized charges
If you are charged after confirming cancellation, do not assume you cannot recover the money. Contact your bank immediately and dispute the charge, providing your cancellation confirmation email. Your bank can initiate a chargeback, and you can file a complaint with the Commerce Commission simultaneously.
Openart pricing and subscription plans
Understanding your plan type helps you predict your cancellation date and refund eligibility.
| Plan type | Billing cycle | Typical cost (NZD) | Cancellation timing | Refund eligibility if cancelled early |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Weekly | Every 7 days | Approx. $5-8 | Cancellation effective end of week | Low-only if service defective |
| Monthly | Every 30 days | Approx. $15-25 | Cancellation effective end of month | Only if service defective or within 14 days |
| Annual | Every 365 days | Approx. $120-180 | Cancellation effective end of year | Yes-pro-rata refund for unused months if cancelled early |
| Lifetime unlock | One-off payment | Approx. $200-400 | N/A-not a subscription | Only if service defective; no refund for change of mind |
| Pay-as-you-go | Per-usage credits | Variable | N/A-no subscription to cancel | Unused credits typically forfeit; only refundable if service quality issue |
Note: Prices are approximate and may vary based on promotional offers or currency fluctuations. Check your latest invoice for your exact plan cost.
How to contact Openart if cancellation fails
If you have followed the cancellation steps and still see charges on your account, you must escalate your complaint in writing.
Openart's registered address
Openart's only registered corporate address on record is located in Singapore. Send any formal cancellation request or refund demand by email and also by registered mail to:
Openart (registered Singapore address)
Support contact: [email protected]
In your email, include:
- Your full name and Openart account email address.
- A clear statement: "I request cancellation of my subscription effective immediately" or "I request a refund of [amount] for [reason]."
- Your billing date, plan type, and the date you cancelled (with screenshot proof).
- A reference to your Consumer Guarantees Act or Fair Trading Act rights if applicable.
- A request for written confirmation of cancellation and any refund decision within 10 working days.
Save a copy of your email and any response from Openart. Yafee recommends sending this by email (for speed) and also printing and posting it by registered mail (for legal proof of delivery).
Escalation to the commerce commission
If Openart refuses your cancellation or refund request after 10 working days, you can file a formal complaint with the Commerce Commission (the New Zealand regulator). You do not need to pay a fee. Visit www.commissionercommerce.govt.nz or call 0800 943 600 to lodge your complaint.
Provide the Commission with:
- Copies of your sign-up confirmation and cancellation request emails.
- Screenshots of your account billing section showing the subscription and any charges after cancellation.
- Your bank statement or credit card statement showing the charges.
- A summary of your Consumer Guarantees Act or Fair Trading Act claim.
The Commerce Commission can investigate and, if it finds Openart has breached consumer law, can force the company to refund you and pay a penalty.
