How to cancel your Webflow subscription in singapore: your complete legal guide
Understanding Webflow and your cancellation rights
Webflow is a cloud-based website design and hosting platform that lets you build responsive websites using a visual editor, without writing code. It combines design tools, content management, and e-commerce functionality in one interface, making it popular with designers, agencies, and marketers across Singapore.
Your right to cancel your Webflow subscription exists, but the process and your entitlement to refunds depend on Singapore's consumer protection framework and how you purchased your plan. This guide explains your legal position under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act, walks you through each cancellation method, and shows you how Yafee helps thousands of subscribers in Singapore manage their digital subscriptions with clarity and confidence.
What Webflow offers and typical pricing
Webflow operates on a tiered subscription model. Your monthly cost depends on the plan you select: basic hosting plans start around SGD 12 per month, while professional CMS and e-commerce plans reach SGD 38 or higher. Some users remain on Webflow's free Starter plan indefinitely, while others upgrade to manage client projects or run online stores.
Why cancellation matters to you
You might cancel because your project has concluded, you prefer a competing platform, or you need to reduce monthly expenses. Whatever your reason, understanding your rights before you act protects you from unexpected charges, data loss, or disputes with Webflow. Yafee exists to make this process transparent and legally sound.
Your consumer rights in singapore under the consumer protection (Fair trading) act
Singapore's consumer protection framework grants you specific rights when you purchase digital services, including software subscriptions like Webflow.
What protection covers you
Under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act, the services you purchase must be of acceptable quality and fit for the purpose described. If Webflow fails to deliver this standard-for example, if your site becomes inaccessible due to platform outages, or if features promised in the contract do not function-you have grounds to lodge a complaint or seek a remedy.
However, Singapore law does not automatically grant a "cooling-off period" (also called a right of withdrawal) for digital services purchased online. Unlike the European Union, which gives consumers 14 days to cancel most digital goods without reason, Singapore requires you to meet the terms of your contract with Webflow. This means you cannot simply change your mind after purchase and demand a refund under a statutory cooling-off right.
Your legal position: Once you purchase a Webflow plan and begin using it, you are contractually bound to that plan unless Webflow's terms permit cancellation or you can demonstrate a material breach of contract by Webflow.
When to escalate to authorities
If Webflow fails to respond to your legitimate complaint, refuses to honour its own cancellation policy, or uses unfair contract terms, you can escalate to the Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE) or the Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore (CCCS). Both organisations investigate complaints about unfair trading practices, misleading advertising, and breaches of consumer law.
Before escalating, document every interaction with Webflow: save emails, screenshots of service failures, and copies of terms and conditions as they appeared when you signed up. Yafee recommends keeping this evidence in a single folder for quick reference if you need to file a formal complaint.
Cancellation methods: which route applies to your purchase
Your cancellation process depends on where and how you purchased your Webflow subscription.
Direct purchase via webflow's website or account dashboard
If you signed up directly on Webflow.com or through your account dashboard and entered your credit card details, you cancel through Webflow's account settings. This is the most common route for Singapore users and gives you the most control over cancellation timing and confirmation.
Subscription purchased through apple app store
If you subscribed to Webflow via the Apple App Store on an iPhone, iPad, or Mac, Apple manages your subscription, not Webflow. Webflow cannot cancel App Store subscriptions on your behalf. You must access your Apple ID settings and manage the subscription directly through Apple. Webflow will not process a cancellation request if you purchased through Apple.
Subscription purchased through google play store
Similarly, if you subscribed through Google Play on an Android device, you manage cancellation through your Google Play account settings, not through Webflow. Google handles billing and subscription management for this payment method.
Step-by-step cancellation for direct Webflow purchases
Follow these steps if you signed up directly on Webflow.com or your account dashboard.
Step 1: log into your Webflow account
- Open your web browser and navigate to Webflow.com.
- Click the "Sign In" button in the top right corner.
- Enter your email address and password, then click "Sign In".
- If you use two-factor authentication, complete that step as prompted.
Step 2: navigate to your account settings
- After login, click your profile icon or initials in the top right corner of the Webflow dashboard.
- Select "Account Settings" from the dropdown menu.
- You will see tabs for "General", "Billing", and other options depending on your account type.
- Click the "Billing" tab to access your subscription and payment information.
Step 3: locate your current plan and subscription status
- In the Billing tab, you will see your active plan listed under "Plan Details" or "Current Plan".
- Note the plan name, renewal date, and monthly or annual cost.
- Confirm that the plan shown matches the one you intend to cancel (not another project or team plan).
- Screenshot this information for your records before proceeding.
Step 4: select the cancel option and confirm your decision
- Look for a "Change Plan", "Manage Plan", or "Cancel Subscription" button near your plan details.
- Click this button to open the plan change or cancellation dialogue.
- Select the option to cancel or downgrade your plan (some users prefer to downgrade to Webflow's free Starter plan rather than cancel entirely).
- Read any warnings or notices about what will happen after cancellation (for example, your site may become read-only or lose certain features).
- Confirm your decision by clicking the final "Cancel" or "Confirm" button.
Step 5: review the cancellation confirmation and save your confirmation email
- Webflow will display a confirmation message on screen, typically stating your cancellation is effective immediately or on your next billing date.
- Check your email inbox (including spam or promotions folders) for a cancellation confirmation email from Webflow.
- This email is your proof of cancellation; save it permanently or forward it to a secure folder.
- Verify that future charges no longer appear in your billing history or on your credit card statement.
Step 6: export your site data before final removal
- If you wish to preserve your site's code or content, visit your Webflow project dashboard and locate the project you are cancelling.
- Open the project settings and look for an "Export" option (export functionality varies by plan; free plans may have limited export capability).
- Select "Export as ZIP" or similar option to download your site's HTML, CSS, and assets.
- Store this file securely on your computer or cloud storage as a backup.
Cancellation via apple app store or google play store
If you purchased your Webflow subscription through an app store, you must cancel through that store's subscription management system, not through Webflow's website.
Cancelling an apple app store subscription
- On your iPhone, iPad, or Mac, open the Settings app.
- Tap or click your name and profile picture at the top.
- Select "Subscriptions" or "Media and Purchases" (the exact label depends on your device type and iOS version).
- Find the Webflow subscription in the list of active subscriptions.
- Tap Webflow and select "Cancel Subscription" or "Edit Subscription".
- Confirm your cancellation; Apple will process it immediately or at your next billing date, depending on your subscription cycle.
- You will receive a confirmation email from Apple; keep this as your cancellation proof.
Cancelling a google play store subscription
- On your Android device, open Google Play Store.
- Tap your profile icon in the top right corner.
- Select "Manage my subscriptions" or "Subscriptions".
- Find Webflow in your active subscriptions list.
- Tap Webflow and select "Cancel subscription".
- Choose your reason for cancellation (optional) and confirm the cancellation.
- Google will send you a confirmation email; retain this for your records.
Refunds, billing cycles, and what happens after cancellation
Understanding the timing and financial implications of cancellation is essential to avoid surprise charges.
When your cancellation takes effect
If you cancel before your next billing date, Webflow will honour your cancellation on that date. Your access to paid features will end on the date shown in your confirmation. If you cancel mid-cycle (for example, you paid for a monthly plan on the 10th and cancel on the 20th), Webflow generally does not refund the unused portion of your current billing period, as you have already consumed part of the service.
Refund eligibility and your options
Singapore law does not mandate that Webflow issue a refund for an unused portion of a subscription you have already partially used. However, if Webflow's own terms promise a refund window (for example, a money-back guarantee within 30 days), you may claim that refund if you meet the conditions. Check your original purchase receipt or Webflow's terms of service for any refund clause.
If Webflow charges you after you cancel, contact Webflow's support immediately. Request a refund of the duplicate or unauthorised charge. If Webflow refuses, you can dispute the charge with your credit card company or bank (called a chargeback) and lodge a complaint with CASE or CCCS.
What happens to your site and data
After cancellation, your Webflow site becomes inaccessible to the public. Your custom domain will no longer point to your Webflow site unless you manually update your domain records. Webflow may retain your site data for a limited period (typically 30 to 90 days) before deletion, so export your content before the final deadline if you wish to preserve it. Yafee recommends exporting your site as soon as you initiate cancellation to avoid losing work.
Downgrading instead of cancelling
Rather than cancelling entirely, you can downgrade to Webflow's free Starter plan, which lets you maintain a basic site and preserve your account without monthly payments. This option suits users who may want to return to Webflow later or need to keep a minimal online presence. To downgrade, follow the same account settings route but select "Starter (Free)" instead of "Cancel".

Common mistakes to avoid during cancellation
You can cancel your Webflow subscription with confidence once you understand the process and your rights, but these pitfalls can cause frustration or unexpected charges.
Mistake 1: forgetting to cancel before your next billing date
If you initiate cancellation but do not confirm it, or if you delay cancellation, Webflow will charge you on your renewal date. Mark your calendar with your renewal date and complete cancellation at least one day before that date to ensure the charge does not go through. Check your billing history frequently to confirm you are no longer being charged.
Mistake 2: cancelling an app store subscription without checking your primary billing method
If you purchased through Apple App Store or Google Play but also have a separate direct Webflow subscription on the same account, you may cancel the wrong subscription. Log into your Webflow account and verify which billing method is active before cancelling anywhere. Yafee recommends screenshotting your billing details to confirm.
Mistake 3: not exporting your site data before the final removal deadline
Webflow may delete your site data within 30 to 90 days of cancellation. If you do not export your HTML, CSS, and content during this window, you may lose access to your work permanently. Export immediately after cancellation if you wish to preserve anything.
Mistake 4: failing to document your cancellation confirmation
If a dispute arises-for example, Webflow claims you never cancelled and continues charging-your confirmation email is your evidence. Save the email from Webflow confirming your cancellation, take a screenshot of the cancellation confirmation on screen, and keep both securely. Yafee has helped thousands of consumers resolve billing disputes by retaining this proof.
Mistake 5: not checking your credit card statement after cancellation
Verify that no further Webflow charges appear on your statement 5 to 10 days after cancellation. If a charge appears after you cancelled, contact Webflow immediately and dispute it with your bank if necessary.
After cancellation: your next steps and ongoing protections
Once Webflow confirms your cancellation, your responsibility does not end-you must verify that charges stop and your account remains cancelled.
Monitor your billing for 90 days
Check your credit card or bank statement monthly for 90 days after cancellation to confirm no further Webflow charges appear. If an unauthorised charge occurs, contact your bank immediately to dispute it (called a chargeback in banking terms). Singapore's banking system allows you to dispute unauthorised charges for up to 90 days in most cases.
Update your domain settings if necessary
If you pointed a custom domain to your Webflow site, update your domain's nameservers or DNS records to point to a new host or remove the site entirely. Failing to update your domain will result in an error page or blank site visible to visitors. Most domain registrars provide instructions for updating DNS records.
Request a formal cancellation letter if you cancelled due to a service failure
If you cancelled because Webflow failed to deliver the service as promised, email Webflow's support team and request written acknowledgement of the service failure and your cancellation. This correspondence supports a future complaint to CASE or CCCS if Webflow disputes the cancellation or continues to claim you owe payment.
Keep your account closed or downgraded
After cancellation, your account should show "Cancelled" or "Inactive" status in Webflow's account settings. If you plan never to use Webflow again, leave it in this state. If you downgraded to the free Starter plan instead of cancelling, log in occasionally to ensure your free account remains active and no paid features have been re-enabled.
Escalation: what to do if Webflow refuses to cancel
In rare cases, Webflow may refuse to process your cancellation request or claim you do not have the right to cancel. You have legal remedies.
Step 1: request cancellation in writing via email
Send an email to Webflow's support team stating your cancellation request clearly. Reference your account email address, the plan you are cancelling, and your preferred cancellation date. Keep a copy of this email and save Webflow's response (or note the lack of response and the date).
Step 2: escalate to webflow's billing or legal department
If standard support does not respond or refuses to cancel, email Webflow's billing department or legal contact (usually found in the company's terms of service or contact page). State that you are formally requesting cancellation and that failure to comply may result in a complaint to Singapore consumer authorities.
Step 3: lodge a complaint with CASE or CCCS
If Webflow refuses to cancel or continues to charge you after cancellation, file a formal complaint with the Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE) or the Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore (CCCS). Provide copies of all emails, screenshots of your billing history, and your cancellation confirmation. CASE and CCCS investigate complaints and can order Webflow to issue refunds or halt charges.
Step 4: dispute the charge with your bank
If Webflow continues charging after you cancelled and authorities do not intervene quickly, contact your bank and dispute the charge. Your bank can reverse unauthorised or disputed charges and freeze future Webflow transactions. This is your final financial protection.
In the event you need to send a formal written cancellation notice, use the following address:
Webflow, Inc.
398 11th Street
San Francisco, CA 94103
United States
Alternatively, if your account is governed by Webflow's European entity, contact:
Webflow International Limited
Block D, Harcourt Centre
Harcourt Street
Dublin 2, D02 F721
Ireland
For billing inquiries or cancellation requests, email [email protected] and reference your account email address in the subject line.
