Frequently asked questions
Cancel Pro Tools: The Right Way
How to cancel Pro Tools and protect your creative projects
What you need to know about cancelling Pro Tools in singapore
Pro Tools is a professional digital audio workstation (DAW) used by music producers, sound engineers, and post-production specialists for recording, editing, mixing, and mastering audio. Avid delivers Pro Tools as a subscription-based service with online account management, cloud integration, and access to industry-standard audio editing tools. Your subscription protects your work, but cancelling it properly-without losing files or incurring unexpected charges-requires you to follow specific steps based on how you purchased.
At Yafee, we recognise that cancellation can feel daunting when your creative projects depend on the software. This guide walks you through every cancellation method, your legal rights under Singapore consumer law, refund entitlements, and what happens to your project files after you cancel.
Why cancellation matters for your account security
Cancelling your Pro Tools subscription stops future billing immediately, but the timing of your cancellation affects whether you receive a refund and how long you retain access. If you cancel before your next renewal date, you typically keep access until that date-no additional charges apply. Cancelling after renewal charges are processed may entitle you to a refund within a defined window, depending on your purchase method and how long you have held the subscription.
How subscription renewals work
Pro Tools subscriptions renew automatically on a monthly or annual cycle, depending on your chosen plan. Avid charges your payment method on the renewal date unless you cancel beforehand. If you forget to cancel and are charged for an unwanted renewal, you have 14 days from the charge date to request a refund directly from Avid. Yafee advises setting a calendar reminder one week before your renewal date as a safeguard.
Your consumer rights under singapore law
Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act (CPFTA) grants you specific rights when purchasing digital services like Pro Tools.
Consumer protection (Fair trading) act protections
Under the CPFTA, Avid must supply Pro Tools with accurate descriptions and must deliver the service as advertised. If Pro Tools fails to perform its stated functions, crashes repeatedly, or loses your data due to a software fault, you have grounds to request a refund or replacement, even outside the standard 14-day window. The CPFTA applies to all consumers in Singapore, regardless of whether you purchased directly from Avid or through a reseller.
Your legal position: You may cancel and claim a refund if (1) Pro Tools does not match its advertised features, (2) the service is faulty or unreliable, or (3) you are misled about pricing or cancellation terms. Avid cannot prevent you from exercising these rights. If Avid refuses a refund claim, you may escalate to the Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE) for mediation or the Small Claims Tribunal for claims under SGD 10,000.
Your 14-day refund right for direct purchases
Avid's published refund policy grants a 14-day refund window for direct purchases from its online store, measured from the purchase date. After 14 days, refunds are discretionary unless you cite a fault or misrepresentation. Cancelling your subscription after the 14-day window does not trigger a refund for past subscription fees, but it stops future charges and protects you from unwanted renewals.
App store and google play refund rules
If you subscribed via Apple App Store or Google Play, those platforms' refund policies override Avid's terms. Apple typically permits refund requests within 48 hours of purchase; Google Play allows refunds within 48 hours as well. You must initiate these refunds through your Apple ID or Google Account settings, not through Avid. Yafee recommends keeping your transaction receipts to support any refund claim.
How to cancel Pro Tools by purchase method
Your cancellation process depends on whether you purchased directly from Avid, the Apple App Store, or Google Play.
Cancel a direct avid subscription
If you bought Pro Tools directly from Avid's website, you cancel via your Avid account dashboard.
- Visit https://www.avid.com and sign in with your Avid account email and password.
- If you have forgotten your password, select "Forgot Password" to reset it before proceeding.
- Locate Subscriptions or Orders in your account menu.
- Look for a menu icon (three horizontal lines) or a gear icon in the top right corner.
- Some dashboards display "Manage Subscriptions" directly on the home screen.
- Select your active Pro Tools subscription from the list.
- Verify the subscription name, renewal date, and current price before proceeding.
- Click Cancel Subscription or Remove.
- Avid may prompt you to confirm or offer a discounted renewal-these offers are optional.
- Confirm your cancellation in the pop-up message.
- Take a screenshot of the confirmation for your records.
- Check your email for a cancellation confirmation from Avid within 24 hours.
- If you do not receive an email, log back in and verify the subscription no longer appears as "active."
You retain access to Pro Tools until your current billing period ends. After that date, your license expires and you cannot log in without a new subscription.
Cancel a subscription purchased via apple app store
Apple App Store subscriptions are managed through your Apple ID, not through Avid's system.
- On your iPhone or iPad, open the Settings app.
- On Mac, open System Settings instead.
- Tap your name at the top of the screen, then select Subscriptions.
- You may need to enter your Apple ID password.
- Find Pro Tools in your active subscriptions list.
- If you see multiple Avid apps, ensure you select the correct Pro Tools subscription.
- Tap Cancel Subscription or Edit, then select Cancel.
- Apple will ask you to confirm and may offer a discount to retain you-this is optional.
- Confirm the cancellation.
- Your subscription ends at the next renewal date.
If you purchased within the last 48 hours, select Request Refund instead of Cancel to reclaim the full charge. Apple reviews refund requests within 24 hours.
Cancel a subscription purchased via google play
Google Play subscriptions are managed through your Google Account.
- Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device.
- Alternatively, visit https://play.google.com on a computer.
- Tap your profile icon in the top right corner.
- Select Payments and subscriptions.
- Tap Subscriptions to view your active services.
- Locate Pro Tools in the list.
- Tap Pro Tools, then select Cancel subscription.
- Google may display a discount offer or survey-these are optional.
- Confirm your cancellation.
- Your subscription ends at the next renewal date.
For refunds within 48 hours of purchase, select Request refund at the "Cancel subscription" screen. Google processes refunds within 24 to 48 hours.
What happens to your projects after cancellation
Cancelling your subscription does not delete your project files, but access to Pro Tools ends when your license expires.
Protect your work before you cancel
Export your active projects in a format that other DAWs can read-AAF (Advanced Authoring Format) or OMF (Open Media Framework) are standard options. Avid also allows you to export sessions as Pro Tools session files (.ptf), which you can re-open with a future Pro Tools subscription if you decide to return. Store all exported files on an external hard drive or cloud storage (Google Drive, Dropbox, iCloud) to ensure you retain them after cancellation.
Access timeline after licence expiry
Once your subscription ends and you do not renew, Pro Tools becomes inaccessible within 24 to 48 hours. You cannot open projects or access any Avid cloud services tied to your account. Your cloud-stored sessions (if using Avid's cloud collaboration tools) remain stored, but you cannot modify them without an active subscription. Therefore, download all cloud files to your computer before your licence expires.
Refund timelines and conditions
Your refund eligibility and processing time depend on your purchase method and how soon you request it after cancellation.
| Purchase method | Refund window | Processing time | Who to contact |
|---|---|---|---|
| Avid direct store | 14 days from purchase | 5 to 7 business days | Avid support (avid.com/contact) |
| Apple App Store | 48 hours from purchase | 24 hours | App Store app (Settings > Subscriptions) |
| Google Play | 48 hours from purchase | 24 to 48 hours | Play Store app (Settings > Payments & subscriptions) |
| Avid renewal charge | 14 days from charge date | 5 to 7 business days | Avid support (avid.com/contact) |
How to request a refund from avid
If you purchased directly from Avid and are within the 14-day window, you can request a refund through your account or via Avid support.
- Log in to your Avid account at https://www.avid.com.
- Navigate to Orders to view your purchase history.
- Find the Pro Tools subscription charge you wish to refund.
- Verify it is within 14 days of the charge date.
- Select Request Refund if the option is available.
- If no button appears, contact Avid support directly.
- Provide a brief reason for your refund request (optional, but increases approval likelihood).
- Cite technical faults, billing errors, or unmet expectations if applicable.
- Submit your request and monitor your email for updates.
- Avid will reply within 48 hours to confirm or request additional information.
Yafee recommends keeping screenshots of your account dashboard and all confirmation emails to support your refund claim if Avid disputes it.
Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling
Cancellation is straightforward when you follow the correct process, but a few missteps can cost you money or leave you without access to your files.
Mistake 1: cancelling too close to your renewal date
If you cancel after your renewal date passes but before you notice the new charge, you may miss the refund window. Set a phone reminder for one week before your renewal date, which appears in your Avid account dashboard or subscription confirmation email. Cancelling at least three days before renewal ensures you avoid unwanted charges and stay within refund timelines.
Mistake 2: assuming all purchase methods use the same cancellation process
Cancelling a subscription purchased through the Apple App Store does not cancel your Avid account subscription, and vice versa. You must cancel through the same platform where you purchased. If you are unsure which method you used, check your email receipts-Apple receipts come from apple.com; Google receipts from Google Play; and Avid receipts from Avid directly. Yafee advises checking all three account dashboards if you have ever subscribed multiple ways.
Mistake 3: deleting your avid account instead of cancelling the subscription
Closing your Avid account does not automatically cancel your subscription-you must cancel the subscription first. If you delete your account while a subscription is active, Avid will continue to charge your payment method until the subscription period ends. Cancel the subscription within your account settings, wait for confirmation, then delete the account if you wish to do so.
Mistake 4: not exporting your projects before licence expiry
After your subscription expires, Pro Tools becomes locked and you cannot open or export projects directly from the software. Export all active sessions and audio files to your computer at least one week before your renewal date. Use Pro Tools' native export functions or third-party converters to ensure compatibility with alternative DAWs.
Refund and cancellation checklist
Use this checklist to verify you have completed all necessary steps before your subscription renews.
| Task | Status | Deadline |
|---|---|---|
| Export all Pro Tools projects to external storage | ☐ | 1 week before renewal |
| Identify your purchase method (Avid, Apple, Google) | ☐ | Before cancelling |
| Log in to the correct platform and navigate to subscriptions | ☐ | Before cancelling |
| Select Pro Tools subscription and click Cancel | ☐ | Before renewal date |
| Confirm cancellation in the pop-up or follow-up email | ☐ | Within 24 hours |
| Screenshot or save the cancellation confirmation | ☐ | After confirmation |
| If within 14 days, request a refund from Avid or your app store | ☐ | 14 days from charge date |
Pricing and plan comparison
Understanding Pro Tools' pricing structure helps you decide whether cancellation or a plan downgrade better suits your needs.
| Plan type | Monthly SGD | Annual SGD | Features | Cancellation cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pro Tools Perpetual (one-time) | N/A | SGD 1,299 | Lifetime licence, no renewal | Refundable within 14 days |
| Pro Tools (monthly) | SGD 24.99 | SGD 199 | Full DAW access, updates included | Cancel anytime; refund within 14 days |
| Pro Tools Studio (monthly) | SGD 49.99 | SGD 399 | Advanced mixing, collaboration tools | Cancel anytime; refund within 14 days |
| Pro Tools Intro (free tier) | Free | Free | Limited features, no expiry | No refund needed |
| Education plan | SGD 14.99 | SGD 119 | Full access, student/educator verification required | Cancel anytime; refund within 14 days |
If you are cancelling due to cost, consider downgrading to Pro Tools Intro (free tier) or an Education plan if you qualify. A perpetual licence (one-time purchase) eliminates recurring charges entirely, though it requires a higher upfront cost. Yafee recommends comparing these options before committing to full cancellation.
