Frequently asked questions
Cancel Rebel: The Right Way to Stop Subscriptions
How to cancel Rebel sport NZ and stop REBEL plus subscriptions
What is Rebel sport NZ
Rebel Sport NZ is a retail and digital platform that sells sports equipment, apparel and subscription content to customers throughout New Zealand. You can shop online, in physical stores or through the mobile app, and you can purchase physical goods or subscribe to digital content plans. Understanding what you own and how you accessed it will determine which cancellation method you need to use.
Products you can buy and subscribe to
Rebel offers physical sports goods via web and retail channels, alongside digital subscription plans called REBEL Plus. You access subscriptions through Apple's App Store or Google Play, and physical purchases are managed through standard e-commerce ordering and Click and Collect options. Yafee recognises that managing multiple cancellation channels can be confusing, which is why we have mapped out each pathway below.
How Rebel handles cancellations
Cancellation processes vary depending on what you are cancelling. If you ordered physical goods online, you contact Rebel Customer Service directly. If you subscribed to REBEL Plus through an app store, you manage the cancellation through Apple or Google, not through Rebel itself. This separation is important to understand before you start the cancellation process.
Your consumer rights under new zealand law
When you cancel a subscription or return goods, your rights are protected by the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 and the Fair Trading Act 1986. These laws give you leverage if Rebel refuses a legitimate cancellation or refund.
What the consumer guarantees act covers
Under the Consumer Guarantees Act, goods must be of acceptable quality, fit for purpose and as described. If you receive faulty, damaged or misdescribed items, you have the right to a full refund, replacement or repair. This applies even if Rebel's stated return window has passed, provided you act within a reasonable timeframe and the fault was not caused by your use.
For subscriptions, the Fair Trading Act prevents Rebel from using misleading cancellation procedures or hidden auto-renewal terms. If Rebel makes cancellation deliberately difficult or hides fees, that breaches consumer law. Yafee has helped thousands of New Zealand consumers recover money by invoking these protections when companies resist legitimate cancellations.
Your legal position
You have the right to cancel a subscription at any time. The Fair Trading Act requires that cancellation terms be clear and fair. If Rebel's website or app does not make the cancellation process obvious, or if you discover hidden fees only after purchase, you can request a full refund on those grounds. You do not need Rebel's permission to cancel; you have the legal right to do so.
When to escalate to the commerce commission
If Rebel ignores your cancellation request or refuses a refund you are entitled to under law, you can lodge a complaint with the Commerce Commission (the New Zealand regulator). Document all your communications first: screenshots of the subscription, emails to Rebel, dates you attempted cancellation. The Commerce Commission takes unfair contract terms and refusal-to-cancel seriously, especially around auto-renewal traps.
How to cancel REBEL plus via app store subscription
If you subscribed to REBEL Plus through Apple or Google, you must cancel through the app store, not through Rebel itself. This is the fastest route and gives you a record of cancellation.
Cancel REBEL plus through apple
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone, iPad or Mac.
- Tap or click your name at the top of the screen.
- Select Subscriptions.
- Tap REBEL Plus.
- Tap Cancel Subscription.
- Apple will ask you to confirm your reason for cancellation.
- Select your reason and tap Confirm.
- Take a screenshot of the cancellation confirmation screen.
- This proves the date you cancelled and that Apple processed it.
- Save it to your phone or email it to yourself.
- Check your Apple ID email for a cancellation receipt within 24 hours.
- Your subscription will end on the last day of your billing cycle.
- If you are charged again after cancellation, contact Apple directly with your screenshot as evidence.
Cancel REBEL plus through google play
- Open the Google Play app on your Android device.
- Tap your profile icon in the top right corner.
- Tap Manage your Google Account.
- Go to the Payments and subscriptions tab.
- Tap Subscriptions.
- Select REBEL Plus.

- Take a screenshot of the cancellation confirmation.
- Your subscription will end on the last day of your billing cycle.
- Check your Gmail for a cancellation email receipt.
How to cancel online orders from Rebel
Stopping an online order before it is shipped is your fastest route to avoid receiving unwanted goods. Act quickly, because once Rebel's couriers collect your parcel, cancellation becomes more difficult.
Cancel before the courier arrives
- Contact Rebel Customer Service immediately after placing your order.
- Visit the Rebel help centre at help.rebelsport.co.nz and use the contact form, or find the phone number in your order confirmation email.
- Explain clearly: your order number, the reason you want to cancel (change of mind, ordered by mistake, etc) and ask for written confirmation of cancellation.
- If the order has not yet been picked by the courier, Rebel will cancel and refund you.
- Ask how long the refund takes to appear in your bank account (usually 5 to 10 business days).
- Request email confirmation so you have proof the order was cancelled.
- Check your bank account or credit card statement after the promised refund date.
- If the refund has not arrived, contact Rebel again with your cancellation confirmation email.
- Keep a record of all communication in case you need to escalate to the Commerce Commission.
Return goods after delivery
- Contact Rebel Customer Service as soon as the parcel arrives.
- Explain that you want to return the items and request a returns authority number (RAN).
- Ask whether Rebel will pay for return postage or whether you will bear the cost.
- Pack the items securely in their original packaging.
- Include all tags, documentation and accessories that came with the goods.
- Keep the receipt or packing slip.
- Send the parcel to the address Rebel provides, using tracked postage.
- Do not send items without Rebel's consent; you may not receive a refund for untracked parcels.
- Keep the tracking number and receipt until you receive your refund confirmation.
- Follow up with Rebel 7 business days after the parcel is delivered to them.
- Ask for confirmation that the items were received and request a refund date.
- If Rebel refuses to refund and the goods are faulty or misdescribed, cite the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 in your next communication.
Refunds and timelines
New Zealand consumer law does not impose a set return window for physical goods. Rebel may offer a 30-day or 60-day period, but this is not a legal requirement. However, the Consumer Guarantees Act allows you to return faulty or misdescribed goods within a reasonable timeframe, which can extend beyond Rebel's stated window.
| Cancellation type | Timeframe for refund | How to track it |
|---|---|---|
| REBEL Plus (app store) | End of current billing cycle; no refund for unused time | Check app store account; receipt email confirms date |
| Online order (before courier pickup) | 5 to 10 business days | Track bank transaction; keep cancellation email |
| Physical goods return (post-delivery) | 10 to 20 business days after Rebel receives parcel | Get tracking number; ask Rebel for refund confirmation email |
| Faulty or misdescribed goods | Refund due immediately under Consumer Guarantees Act | Send written refund demand with photos of fault; escalate if refused |
Common mistakes to avoid
Most Rebel cancellation disputes arise from preventable errors. You are not alone in making these mistakes, and you can correct them quickly if you act now.
Not distinguishing between app store and Rebel cancellations
The most common error is trying to cancel REBEL Plus by contacting Rebel directly. Rebel does not process app store cancellations; only Apple and Google do. If you email Rebel asking to cancel your REBEL Plus subscription, they will direct you back to the app store. Cancel through Apple or Google immediately to avoid further charges.
Missing the early cancellation window
If you subscribed to REBEL Plus, you may have a 14-day cooling-off period under the Consumer Guarantees Act. This is the window in which you can request a full refund of the subscription fee, not just stop the service. If you are within 14 days of purchase and the service has not delivered as described, request a refund in writing (email counts). After 14 days, you can still cancel, but you will not receive a refund for the current billing cycle.
Not requesting written confirmation of cancellation
Telephone calls and chat conversations leave no trace. Always ask Rebel or the app store to send you a cancellation confirmation email. This is your proof if a charge appears on your statement after cancellation. Yafee advises all clients to screenshot confirmation screens and save all emails for at least six months.
After you cancel
Cancellation does not always mean immediate removal of access. Knowing what to expect will help you manage your expectations and spot any errors.
When will my access end
If you cancelled REBEL Plus via the app store, you will retain access until the end of your current billing cycle. For example, if you pay monthly on the 15th and you cancel on the 20th, you will retain access until the 14th of the next month. You will not be charged again after that date. If you cancelled an online order before shipment, you will not receive the goods. If you cancelled after shipment, you must wait for Rebel to process the return and refund.
Check for unwanted charges
Monitor your bank account or credit card statement for 30 days after cancellation. If Rebel charges you after you cancelled, contact them immediately with your cancellation confirmation email. If they refuse to refund, escalate to the Commerce Commission. Yafee has seen cases where customers were charged twice because payment details were not properly removed from Rebel's system.
Delete the app
If you no longer need REBEL Plus, delete the Rebel app from your phone. This prevents accidental re-subscription if you log back in. Deleting the app does not affect your cancellation; the app store still controls the subscription status.
Rebel's cancellation address and escalation contacts
If you need to send a formal written cancellation notice or escalate a dispute, use the contact details below. Yafee recommends using registered mail or email with read receipt so you have proof of delivery.
Send written cancellation notice to
Rebel's corporate mailing address is:
Rebel Sport Limited
Grace Bay Business Centre
Providenciales
Turks and Caicos Islands
Postcode: TKCA 1TU
Alternatively, email Rebel Customer Service through their help portal at help.rebelsport.co.nz. Ensure your email includes:
- Your full name and registered account email.
- Your order number or subscription reference.
- A clear statement that you are cancelling effective immediately.
- Your reason for cancellation (optional but helpful).
- A request for written confirmation of cancellation within 5 business days.
Escalate a dispute to the commerce commission
If Rebel refuses to cancel or refund you, you can lodge a complaint with:
Commerce Commission New Zealand
Private Bag 6090
Wellington 6141
Phone: 0800 943 600
Website: comcom.govt.nz
Provide the Commerce Commission with:
- Copies of all emails and cancellation requests you sent to Rebel.
- Screenshots of the subscription or order.
- Rebel's responses (or confirmation that they did not respond).
- A summary of what you are owed and why (refund amount, date of cancellation request, etc).
The Commerce Commission will investigate whether Rebel breached the Fair Trading Act or Consumer Guarantees Act. If Rebel is found to have acted unfairly, the Commission can order Rebel to refund you and may impose penalties.
