How to cancel Framer before your next charge hits your card
What Framer is and why people cancel
Framer is a web design and publishing platform that bundles page design, hosting, custom domains, SEO tools, and AI-assisted features into one subscription service. It targets creatives, startups, and small teams who want to launch a professional site without managing separate hosting and code deployment. If you are based in the Philippines, you likely pay in US dollars, which convert to roughly ₱550 to ₱5,500 monthly depending on which plan you choose.
People cancel Framer for straightforward reasons: the auto-renewal catches them off guard, they find a cheaper alternative, they finish their project, or the subscription simply does not fit their workflow anymore. Whatever your reason, Yafee exists to help you cancel cleanly and without wasting time or money on unnecessary charges.
Framer's pricing structure and renewal cycle
Framer operates on a strict auto-renewal model. You subscribe to a monthly plan, your card gets charged on the same day each month, and unless you cancel before that date arrives, you are charged again. There is no grace period, no free trial conversion trap, and no hidden pause option: cancellation is the only way to stop the charge.
For Philippine users, the official pricing runs in US dollars. Here are the current plan tiers with approximate peso conversions at standard exchange rates:
| Plan tier |
USD price |
PHP equivalent (approx.) |
What you get |
| Basic |
$10/month |
₱550 |
Personal site, custom domain, basic hosting |
| Pro |
$30/month |
₱1,650 |
Team roles, CMS features, advanced SEO tools |
| Scale |
$100/month |
₱5,500 |
Enterprise features, priority support |
When you pay through a GCash-linked card, Maya card, App Store, or Google Play, your final amount can shift slightly due to exchange rate fluctuations or payment processor fees. Take a screenshot of your billing date and amount before canceling: this protects you if a disputed charge appears later.
Why you might want to cancel
You do not need a dramatic reason to cancel. Maybe you launched your site and no longer need the platform. Maybe you found a cheaper tool. Maybe the monthly cost, even if small, adds up when you have five other subscriptions running. Or maybe the support feels slow when you have questions about your billing.
Whatever prompted you to search for cancellation help, Yafee is here to walk you through the exact steps so you actually stop getting charged, not just think you have.
Your consumer rights under philippine law
The Consumer Act of the Philippines (Republic Act No. 7394) protects you when companies use unfair billing practices.
What the consumer act says about subscriptions
Under the Consumer Act, businesses must clearly disclose billing terms, renewal dates, and cancellation methods before you sign up. Hidden charges, unclear renewal notices, and hard-to-find cancel buttons all violate this law. If Framer makes cancellation intentionally difficult, you have legal ground to file a complaint with the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), which enforces consumer protection in the Philippines.
The law specifically requires that subscription services display cancellation mechanisms prominently and make them as easy to execute as the signup process itself. If you cannot cancel in fewer than five clicks, or if the company charges you after you submit a cancellation request, you have grounds for dispute and refund.
How to use your rights if Framer refuses to refund
If Framer charges you after you cancel, request a refund immediately through email. Keep all screenshots, cancellation confirmations, and bank statements as evidence. If they refuse within 14 days, you can escalate to the DTI Consumer Complaint Center or file a chargeback with your credit card issuer or e-wallet provider.
Your legal position: You are entitled to a full refund if Framer continues charging you after you have submitted a valid cancellation request. The burden is on Framer to prove they received your cancellation before processing the charge. The DTI enforces this right, and you do not need a lawyer to file a complaint.
How to cancel Framer in 5 steps
Framer's cancellation process happens entirely online through your account dashboard.
Step 1: log in to your Framer account
Navigate to www.framer.com and sign in using the email and password you used at signup. If you have enabled two-factor authentication, enter your verification code when prompted. Make sure you are logged into the correct account if you manage multiple sites.
Step 2: navigate to your account settings
Once logged in, click your profile icon or avatar in the top right corner of the dashboard. Select "Account settings" or "Settings" from the dropdown menu. You should land on a page showing your personal information, email, and billing details.
Step 3: find your billing and subscription section
Look for a tab or section labeled "Billing", "Subscription", or "Plans" within your account settings. This section displays your current plan, next billing date, payment method, and renewal amount. Take a screenshot of this page before proceeding: you will need proof of your subscription details if a charge dispute arises.
Step 4: click "Cancel subscription"
At the bottom of your subscription section, you will find a button or link that says "Cancel subscription", "Downgrade plan", or "End membership". Click this button. Framer may ask you to confirm your reason for cancellation in a dropdown or text field: select the reason that fits (cost, finished project, found alternative, or other). This feedback is optional but helps the company improve.
Step 5: confirm cancellation and save your confirmation email
Framer will display a final confirmation screen stating that your subscription has been cancelled effective immediately or at the end of your current billing cycle. Most subscriptions stop immediately, but some may allow you to access the service until your paid period ends: read this carefully. Framer will send a confirmation email to your registered email address within minutes. Save this email or take a screenshot: it serves as proof that you cancelled.
What happens after you cancel Framer
Cancellation in Framer is instant and irreversible, so understand what you lose immediately after confirming.
Your site access after cancellation
Once you cancel, your Framer site typically enters a read-only or paused state. You can still view your site and download your content, but you cannot publish new changes, add pages, or modify settings. If your domain is custom (not a framer.app subdomain), you retain ownership of the domain itself, though you will need to transfer it to another hosting provider to keep it active.
Data and content preservation
Framer stores your site files for a grace period (usually 14 to 30 days). During this window, you can re-subscribe to restore access without losing your pages or content. After the grace period expires, Framer may delete your site permanently. If you want to preserve your content, export your site data before cancelling or immediately after: use Framer's built-in export feature or take screenshots of your pages.
Refund policy and timing
Framer does not offer refunds for partial months: you are charged monthly, and cancellation stops only future charges. If you cancel on the 15th of the month, you have already paid for the full month and will not receive a refund for the remaining 15 days. This is standard in SaaS billing and complies with Philippine consumer law as long as it was disclosed clearly at signup. However, if you cancel before your renewal date, no second charge will process.
Common mistakes people make when cancelling Framer
Cancellation is straightforward, but a few pitfalls can trip you up and leave you still paying for the service.
Mistake 1: confusing pause with cancellation
Some platforms offer a "pause subscription" feature that temporarily stops charges but keeps your account active. Framer does not have a pause feature: clicking "Cancel subscription" ends your membership permanently. If you think you might return to Framer later, export your site first. If you need the platform again, you will have to subscribe anew.
Mistake 2: not saving your cancellation confirmation
After you cancel, Framer sends a confirmation email. Many users delete or archive this email without saving it. If a charge appears on your card weeks later, you will need that email as proof of cancellation. Yafee advises you to forward your cancellation confirmation to a separate "receipts" folder or take a screenshot and store it in cloud storage like Google Drive or OneDrive.
Mistake 3: cancelling too close to your billing date
Framer processes charges at the same time each month. If your billing date is the 15th and you cancel on the 14th at 11 p.m., the charge may have already processed. Always check your exact billing date in the subscription settings and cancel at least 2 days before that date to be safe. If the charge processes after you cancel, contact Framer support immediately for a reversal.
Mistake 4: deleting your account instead of cancelling your subscription
Some users think that deleting their Framer account will stop charges. It will not. Account deletion removes your profile and site, but the subscription link to your payment method may persist. Always cancel the subscription first through the billing section, then delete your account if you wish.
Mistake 5: not monitoring your bank or card statement
After you cancel, check your bank or e-wallet statement within 2 to 3 days to confirm no charge appears. Framer's cancellation is reliable, but payment processor delays can sometimes make a final charge appear after the cancellation date. If you see a charge labeled "Framer" or "Framer.com" after your cancellation confirmation date, contact Framer support with your confirmation email and request an immediate refund or chargeback.
How to get a refund if Framer charges you after cancellation
Even with careful planning, a rogue charge can appear on your statement.
Step 1: confirm the charge is from Framer
Check your bank or e-wallet statement for any transaction labeled "Framer", "Framer.com", or a similar merchant name. Note the exact date, amount, and transaction ID. Confirm this is not an old charge that you missed or a charge from a different service with a similar name.
Step 2: email Framer support with your cancellation proof
Compose an email to Framer's support team (usually [email protected] or through their help portal). Include your cancellation confirmation email, screenshots of your account showing the cancellation, and the transaction ID of the disputed charge. State clearly: "I cancelled my subscription on [date]. I received a confirmation. However, I was charged on [date] for [amount]. I request a full refund to my original payment method within 7 days." Keep a copy of this email for your records.
Step 3: request a chargeback if Framer refuses
If Framer does not respond within 7 days or refuses to refund, contact your bank, credit card issuer, or e-wallet provider (GCash, Maya, PayMaya, etc.) and file a chargeback. Tell them you cancelled your subscription and were charged in error. Provide your cancellation confirmation email and the disputed transaction details. Most financial institutions in the Philippines reverse charges within 15 to 30 days if you have proof of cancellation.
Step 4: escalate to the DTI if necessary
If your chargeback is denied or Framer disputes it, file a formal complaint with the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) Consumer Complaint Center. The DTI handles unfair billing practices and can pressure Framer to refund you. You can file online at www.dti.gov.ph or visit your local DTI office with your cancellation proof and bank statements. Yafee recommends keeping all documentation organized in one folder for this process.
