Frequently asked questions
Cancel Planner 5D: The Right Way
How to cancel Planner 5D and protect your design investment in south africa
What is Planner 5D and why users choose it
Planner 5D is a cloud-based design platform that enables you to create detailed 2D and 3D floor plans and interior designs directly in your web browser or through mobile applications for iOS and Android. The service operates on a subscription model with optional in-app purchases for design elements, render credits, and premium features across multiple membership tiers. Whether you're a homeowner planning a renovation, a student studying interior design, an educator teaching design concepts, or a hobbyist creating visual mockups, Planner 5D offers templates and a substantial catalogue of furniture and decorative items to match your needs.
The subscription structure and billing methods
Planner 5D charges for access through several pathways. You can subscribe monthly or annually for premium features, or purchase individual design elements and rendering credits within the app. If you subscribe through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, your billing flows through those platforms, which directly affects how you cancel and claim refunds. Understanding which platform you're using is your first critical step toward cancellation.
Who should consider cancelling
You may decide to cancel if the platform no longer meets your design needs, if you've completed your project, or if you find a more cost-effective alternative. Some users cancel because they prefer desktop software, whilst others simply need temporary access. Identifying your reason for cancellation helps you understand whether you have grounds for a refund under South African consumer law.
Understanding your consumer rights under south african law
South Africa's Consumer Protection Act grants you significant protections when you cancel digital services like Planner 5D.
What the consumer protection act 68 of 2008 means for you
The Consumer Protection Act 68 of 2008 protects you if a service provider fails to deliver what they promised, charges unfairly, or makes cancellation deliberately difficult. Under this framework, you have the right to cancel within a reasonable period if the service fails to meet its specifications or if the provider breaches the terms. If Planner 5D fails to allow you to cancel after you've paid, or if they don't honour a promised refund, you can escalate your complaint to the National Consumer Commission (NCC). This statutory body investigates breaches of consumer rights and can compel companies to refund money or cease unlawful practices.
Your legal position if Planner 5D refuses to cancel
Your legal position: If you've submitted a cancellation request and Planner 5D continues to charge you without authorisation, you are not obliged to accept continued billing. Document every payment, every cancellation request, and every support response. You can lodge a formal complaint with the National Consumer Commission if the company ignores your cancellation or refuses a lawful refund. Yafee recommends keeping screenshots of your account statements and support correspondence, as these become crucial evidence if you need to escalate to the NCC. The Commission can investigate, mediate, or refer the matter to the consumer tribunal if necessary.
How to cancel Planner 5D on the web
Cancelling your Planner 5D subscription on the website takes a few clicks and you retain access until your paid period ends.
Step one: sign into your account
Open your web browser and navigate to the Planner 5D website. Sign in with your email address and password. If you use two-factor authentication, complete that step to access your account fully.
Step two: access your account settings
Once logged in, click on your profile icon or account menu, usually located in the top right corner of the screen. Select "Profile" or "Account Settings" from the dropdown menu. Look for "Subscription" or "Billing" in the left sidebar navigation.
Step three: locate and click the cancel button
On the Subscription or Billing page, review your active plan and find the "Cancel Subscription" button. Click it and Planner 5D will ask you to confirm your cancellation. You may see a retention offer or discount; ignore it if you've decided to leave the service.
Step four: confirm and document the cancellation
Confirm your cancellation when prompted. Take a screenshot of the confirmation message and save the confirmation email Planner 5D sends you. This email proves you cancelled and protects you if unexpected charges appear later. Verify the cancellation took effect by checking your subscription status one more time within 48 hours.
How to cancel Planner 5D on mobile and app store subscriptions
If you subscribed through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, you must cancel through that platform, not through Planner 5D directly.
Cancelling an apple app store subscription
On an iPhone or iPad, open the Settings app and tap your Apple ID at the top of the screen. Select "Subscriptions" and find Planner 5D in the list. Tap "Cancel Subscription" and confirm your choice. Apple immediately cancels the subscription and sends you a confirmation email. If you're on a Mac, open the App Store, click your account icon in the top right, select "Account Settings", navigate to "Subscriptions", find Planner 5D, and click "Edit" to cancel.
Cancelling a google play store subscription
On an Android device, open the Google Play app and tap your profile icon in the top right corner. Select "Payments and subscriptions" and then "Subscriptions". Find Planner 5D and tap it. Select "Cancel subscription" and follow the prompts to confirm. Google processes the cancellation immediately and you receive a confirmation notification.
Planner 5D pricing and subscription tiers
Understanding Planner 5D's pricing structure helps you determine whether the service justifies its cost and whether cancellation is the right choice.
| Plan type | Billing cycle | Approximate cost (ZAR) | Key features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free plan | One-time | Free | Basic design tools, limited renders, watermarked exports |
| Monthly premium | Monthly | R99-R149 | Unlimited renders, design libraries, priority support |
| Annual premium | Annual | R899-R1299 | Best value - all premium features, 30% discount versus monthly |
| Pro add-ons | Per item | R10-R50 | Additional render credits, premium furniture packs, texture libraries |
Prices fluctuate and vary depending on your region and current promotions. Always check the Planner 5D website or your invoice for your exact charges in ZAR.
Refunds and what to expect after cancellation
Your refund eligibility depends on when you cancel and which platform processed your payment.
Refund timelines and conditions
If you cancel before your billing cycle renews, you are not charged again and you retain access until the end of your paid period. If you paid for a full year and want a refund within 30 days of purchase, contact Planner 5D's support team directly at their registered office address (provided at the end of this guide) and request a pro-rata refund. Yafee advises that refunds for app store subscriptions follow Apple or Google's refund policy, not Planner 5D's; Apple typically refunds within 15 days if you request it, whilst Google allows refunds within 48 hours of purchase.
What happens to your designs after cancellation
Once your subscription ends, you lose access to premium features, render credits, and design libraries. However, your existing designs remain saved to your account. You can log back in at any time to view them, but you cannot export, render, or edit them without an active subscription. Download and save all your designs as image files or PDFs whilst your subscription is still active if you want permanent copies.
Retaining access to your design files
Before you cancel, log into your Planner 5D account and export or screenshot all your completed designs. Use Planner 5D's built-in export function to save designs as high-resolution images or PDFs. If your designs are commercially sensitive or project-specific, this step is critical; once you cancel, regenerating the same designs may require purchasing render credits again.
Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling Planner 5D
Cancelling a subscription should be straightforward, but small mistakes can leave you with unwanted charges or lost access to your work.
Not saving your designs before cancellation
The most common and avoidable error is cancelling without downloading or exporting your designs first. Once your subscription lapses, you lose the ability to render or export your work. Open Planner 5D, navigate to each design, and use the export function to save them as images or PDF files. Store these files securely on your computer or cloud storage. This step takes 15 minutes and prevents permanent loss of your design work.
Confusing app store cancellations with web cancellations
If you subscribed through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, cancelling through the Planner 5D website does not stop billing. You must cancel directly through the app store's subscription management portal. Check your payment method and billing email to confirm which platform processed your initial payment, then cancel through that same platform.
Assuming cancellation stops immediate access
You typically retain access to your premium features until your paid period expires. If you cancel mid-month, you do not receive an immediate refund for the unused portion unless Planner 5D explicitly offers pro-rata refunds. Check your account settings to see your access end date before you cancel.
Escalating a complaint if Planner 5D refuses to cancel
If Planner 5D ignores your cancellation request or continues charging you after you've submitted a cancellation, you have formal redress through South Africa's consumer protection system.
Document everything before escalating
Save all evidence: screenshots of your subscription status, confirmation emails showing your cancellation request, bank statements showing each charge, and copies of all support correspondence. Create a simple timeline listing each date you attempted to cancel and what response (if any) you received. This documentation forms the foundation of any complaint to the National Consumer Commission.
Submit a complaint to the national consumer commission
If Planner 5D fails to honour your cancellation request within 14 days, lodge a formal complaint with the National Consumer Commission. You can file a complaint online at the NCC's website or by post. Yafee recommends including copies of your documentation, your bank details, and a clear description of what happened, including the amount you were unlawfully charged. The NCC investigates breach-of-rights complaints free of charge and can compel companies to refund money or cease unfair practices.
Contact Planner 5D's registered office directly
Send a formal cancellation notice by registered mail to Planner 5D's registered office address at Antakalnio g. 17 (used as the legal recipient address). Include your account details, the date you want the cancellation to take effect, and a request for confirmation. Keep a copy of this letter and the proof of delivery as evidence. A formal written cancellation often succeeds where online requests fail because it creates a paper trail and signals seriousness.
Deciding whether to keep or cancel your Planner 5D subscription
Before you cancel, consider whether the service still serves a purpose in your work or creative practice.
| Reason to keep | Reason to cancel |
|---|---|
| You actively design homes or interiors | You completed your project and don't design regularly |
| You use it for business or client presentations | You prefer desktop software like SketchUp or AutoCAD |
| You're learning design and need the tool | You found a cheaper or free alternative |
| You have active client projects | You haven't logged in for 3+ months |
| Your annual plan offers excellent value | Your monthly costs exceed your project value |
