Frequently asked questions
Cancel PDF Guru: Step-by-Step Guide
How to cancel PDF Guru in new zealand and protect your money
What PDF Guru is and who operates it
PDF Guru is a document management and editing platform that enables you to view, convert, annotate, and digitally sign PDF files online or through mobile apps. The service is marketed as a straightforward solution for personal paperwork and business document handling, with both web and app-based access.
Company structure and registration
PDF Guru operates under LOPOFIST LIMITED, a company registered in Nicosia, Cyprus. For customer service and cancellation purposes, the service is also listed as registered in the United Kingdom. This dual registration structure is important because it determines which consumer protection laws apply to your cancellation rights and refund requests. As a New Zealand consumer, you are protected by the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 (CGA), which applies regardless of where the company is registered, provided the service is supplied to you in New Zealand.
Why cancellation matters
You may decide to cancel PDF Guru because you have found a more affordable alternative, you do not use the premium features frequently enough to justify the ongoing cost, or you are testing the service and wish to avoid recurring charges. Whatever your reason, understanding your cancellation rights and the exact procedure is essential to prevent unauthorised charges and maintain control of your account. Yafee has guided thousands of New Zealand consumers through this process, ensuring clarity at every stage.
PDF Guru pricing and subscription options
Understanding your current plan and what you are paying forms the foundation of a successful cancellation.
Available subscription tiers
PDF Guru typically offers a Free tier with basic PDF viewing and limited editing functionality, a Premium plan for individual users with advanced features, and Business or Team options for organisations requiring collaboration tools. Plan names, features, and pricing vary by region and platform. New Zealand pricing may differ from other markets, and promotional rates may apply if you subscribed during a special offer period.
Pricing structure in new zealand
| Plan type | Price (NZD) | Billing cycle | Key features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | Ongoing | Basic PDF viewing, limited editing |
| Premium (individual) | Variable | Monthly or annual | Advanced editing, format conversion, e-signature capability |
| Business or Team | Variable | Monthly or annual | Collaboration tools, administrative controls, priority support |
| Enterprise | Custom quote | Annual | Custom features, dedicated account management, SLA guarantee |
To establish the exact amount you are paying, check your bank or credit card statements for the most recent charge. Prices may vary depending on whether you subscribed directly through the PDF Guru website, the Apple App Store, Google Play, or claimed a promotional code. Yafee recommends keeping records of all transaction confirmations before you initiate cancellation.
Your legal position under new zealand consumer law
The Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 (CGA) provides you with specific rights when cancelling digital services, regardless of where the service provider is registered.
Your rights and protections
Under the CGA, you have the right to cancel a paid subscription if the service does not meet the guarantees of acceptable quality, fitness for purpose, or safety. Furthermore, the CGA mandates that digital services must be supplied within a reasonable time and contain accurate information about cost, cancellation terms, and billing frequency. Your cancellation right is not limited by the company's location; LOPOFIST LIMITED's Cyprus registration does not override New Zealand consumer law. If PDF Guru refuses to process your cancellation or disputes a refund claim, you may escalate your complaint to the Commerce Commission, New Zealand's primary consumer protection authority.
Your legal position
You hold the right to cancel your PDF Guru subscription at any time. If you cancel within 14 days of purchase, you are entitled to a full refund under the CGA's cooling-off period provision, except where you have already accessed or used the service materially. After 14 days, you may still cancel, but refunds depend on the company's terms and whether the service breaches the CGA's guarantees. Yafee emphasises that the burden lies with PDF Guru to prove that you have accepted the terms and received the service as promised. Keep all communication records and confirmation emails as evidence of your cancellation request.
How to cancel PDF Guru through the app
If you subscribed to PDF Guru on iOS or Android, follow these steps to terminate your subscription directly through the app.
Step 1: log in to your PDF Guru account
- Open the PDF Guru app on your device and tap or click the sign-in option.

- If you cannot recall your password, use the password recovery or "Forgot password" link on the sign-in screen.
Step 2: navigate to your account settings
- Tap or click the account icon, profile menu, or Settings button.
- On iOS devices, look for a menu icon (three horizontal lines) or your initials displayed in the top corner of the app.
- On Android devices, check the three-line menu icon (hamburger menu) or the account section, usually at the top right.
Step 3: locate your subscription or billing section
- Navigate to the Subscriptions, Billing, Account settings, or Plan management section.
- This section displays your active subscription plan, the next billing date, and your renewal frequency (monthly or annual).
- Some apps label this section as "My subscription" or "Premium membership".
Step 4: select your active subscription
- Identify and tap on your current paid plan.
- If you have multiple subscriptions (for example, both a monthly and annual plan), ensure you are cancelling the correct one.
- The app will display the plan name, price, and next charge date.
Step 5: initiate cancellation
- Tap the Cancel subscription, Turn off auto-renewal, or Manage subscription button.
- Read any on-screen warnings or confirmation messages carefully before proceeding.
- PDF Guru may offer a discount or alternative plan to encourage you to stay; you may ignore these offers and proceed with cancellation.
Step 6: confirm your cancellation
- Follow the on-screen prompts to confirm your cancellation request.
- You should receive a confirmation email at the address associated with your account within a few minutes of completing this step.
- Save or screenshot the confirmation screen and email for your records.

- Yafee recommends storing these confirmations in a dedicated folder for future reference.
How to cancel PDF Guru through the apple app store
If you subscribed to PDF Guru through the Apple App Store on an iPhone, iPad, or Mac, you must cancel through your Apple ID account settings, not through the PDF Guru app itself.
Step 1: open your apple ID settings
- On an iPhone or iPad, open the Settings app and tap your name at the top of the screen.
- On a Mac, open System Preferences or System Settings and click your Apple ID at the top of the sidebar.

- This displays all subscriptions linked to your Apple ID account.

Step 4: cancel your subscription
- Tap or click Cancel subscription or Turn off auto-renewal.
- Confirm your cancellation when prompted.
- The subscription will remain active until the end of your current billing cycle, then terminate automatically.
How to cancel PDF Guru through google play
If you subscribed to PDF Guru through Google Play on an Android device, cancellation is managed through your Google Play account, not the PDF Guru app.
Step 1: open the google play store app
- On your Android device, open the Google Play Store app.
- Tap your profile icon in the top right corner.
Step 2: navigate to subscriptions
- Tap Manage subscriptions.
- This shows all subscriptions linked to your Google account.

- If PDF Guru does not appear, you may have subscribed through the website or another platform.
Step 4: cancel your subscription
- Tap Cancel subscription and confirm your cancellation when prompted.
- Your subscription will remain active until the end of your current billing period, then terminate automatically.
Understanding refunds and billing after cancellation
Your refund entitlement depends on when you cancel, the terms you agreed to, and whether you have accessed the service materially.
Refund timeline and eligibility
If you cancel within 14 days of your initial purchase and have not materially used the service, you are entitled to a full refund under the CGA's cooling-off period. After 14 days, refunds are not automatic unless you can demonstrate that PDF Guru has breached the CGA's guarantees (for example, the service was not supplied, was not of acceptable quality, or did not match the description). Yafee advises that you retain all transaction receipts and correspondence to support a refund claim.
Once you have cancelled, your subscription will remain active until the end of your current billing cycle. For example, if you cancel on the 15th of a month and your next charge is on the 1st of the following month, you retain access until that date. After the billing cycle ends, PDF Guru must terminate your account and cease all charges.
What happens to your data after cancellation
Upon cancellation, PDF Guru typically allows you to download your files and data for a limited period (usually 30 days). Consequently, you should retrieve any documents or important information immediately after cancellation to avoid permanent loss. Check your account settings for a "Download my data" or "Export" option, or contact PDF Guru support if you cannot locate this feature.
Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling PDF Guru
Cancellation is straightforward if you follow the correct procedure, but several avoidable errors can complicate the process.
Mistake 1: cancelling through the wrong platform
Many users cancel through the PDF Guru app but forget that App Store or Google Play subscriptions must be cancelled in those stores, not in the app itself. Consequently, the subscription remains active and charges continue. Before you cancel, verify exactly where you subscribed: directly through PDF Guru's website, the Apple App Store, or Google Play.
Mistake 2: failing to save confirmation records
Do not rely on emails alone. Screenshot your cancellation confirmation screen and the confirmation email, then store both in a secure location. If PDF Guru disputes your cancellation or continues charging you, these records are your evidence and are essential when dealing with the Commerce Commission or your bank.
Mistake 3: assuming cancellation is immediate
Cancelling your subscription does not terminate access at that moment. Your subscription remains active until the end of your current billing cycle. If you cancel on day 5 of a 30-day billing period, you retain access for the full 30 days. Plan your cancellation timing accordingly if you want to stop using the service sooner.
Mistake 4: not checking for hidden charges
Monitor your bank or credit card statement for 30 days after cancellation. Although PDF Guru should cease charging you, errors occasionally occur. If an unexpected charge appears, contact your bank immediately and file a dispute if necessary. Yafee recommends setting a calendar reminder to check your statement one month after cancellation.
What to do after you cancel
Cancellation is not the end of the process; several follow-up actions protect your account and finances.
Verify cancellation within 24 hours
- Log into your PDF Guru account 24 hours after requesting cancellation.
- Check whether your subscription still shows as active or has been marked as cancelled.
- If the subscription still appears active, contact PDF Guru support immediately with your cancellation request details and confirmation email.
Monitor your bank account for 30 days
- Check your bank or credit card statement weekly for at least 30 days after your cancellation date.
- Verify that no charges from PDF Guru or LOPOFIST LIMITED appear on your account after your final billing cycle ends.
- If an unauthorised charge occurs, contact your bank immediately and request a chargeback or dispute.
Download your data before final account closure
- If you have documents or files stored in your PDF Guru account, download or export them before your subscription expires.
- PDF Guru typically deletes account data 30 days after subscription termination.
- Check your account settings for an export or download option, or contact support if you cannot locate this feature.
Delete your account if desired
- If you wish to remove all your personal data from PDF Guru's servers, access your account settings and select Delete account or Close account.
- Some services close the account automatically 30 days after subscription cancellation; others require manual deletion.
- Confirm that deletion is complete and save the confirmation email.
Contact information for PDF Guru support and escalation
If PDF Guru refuses to cancel your subscription, continues charging you after cancellation, or denies a refund claim you believe is justified, use the following escalation path.
PDF Guru customer support
Contact PDF Guru directly at the support email address or contact form listed on their website. Provide your account email, subscription plan details, and a clear explanation of the issue. Retain all correspondence in writing; do not rely on phone calls without written confirmation.
Dispute resolution through your bank
If PDF Guru fails to respond within 5 business days, contact your bank and report the issue. Most New Zealand banks allow you to dispute or reverse charges within 120 days of the transaction. Provide your bank with proof of your cancellation request, the company's failure to honour it, and copies of your confirmation emails.
Escalate to the commerce commission
If your bank dispute is unsuccessful or PDF Guru has ceased responding, file a formal complaint with the Commerce Commission (New Zealand's primary consumer protection authority). The Commerce Commission investigates breaches of the Consumer Guarantees Act and can compel businesses to refund consumers and comply with cancellation requests. Visit the Commerce Commission website to lodge a complaint online.
When to cancel PDF Guru and alternative options
Understanding when to cancel and what alternatives exist helps you make an informed decision.
When cancellation makes sense
| Situation | Action recommended |
|---|---|
| You use free alternatives exclusively | Cancel immediately and switch to free tools like Smallpdf or ILovePDF |
| You use the service fewer than twice per month | Cancel and pay per document when needed, or downgrade to the free plan |
| The price has increased and you received no notice | Cancel; this may breach the CGA's transparency requirement |
| You have found a competitor with lower pricing and better features | Cancel and migrate to the alternative service |
| You subscribed during a promotional trial and forgot to cancel | Cancel immediately and request a refund for unexpected charges |
Alternative PDF tools to consider

| Adobe Acrobat Reader | Free or subscription | Industry standard, comprehensive features, broad compatibility |
| Smallpdf | Free with premium tier | Simple interface, multiple conversion formats, no registration required |
| ILovePDF | Free with credit system | User-friendly, web-based, fast processing |
| Preview (Mac) or Paint (Windows) | Free (built-in) | Basic editing, no subscriptions, no learning curve |
