Cancellation Request — [your account email]Send this template
Hi WHOOP team, I'm writing to request the immediate cancellation of my subscription tied to this account, effective today. Under applicable consumer-protection law (UK Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, EU Directive 2011/83/EU, or the FTC's Click-to-Cancel rule depending on your jurisdiction), I'm entitled to terminate this continuous service contract through the same channel it was formed in — please confirm by reply that no further charges will be made. If your policy permits, I'd also appreciate a pro-rata refund for any unused portion of the current billing period. Best, [your name]
Wait for confirmation
Wait 24 hours. If there's no response, send a polite one-line follow-up referencing the original request.

WHOOP’s refund policy
WHOOP gives you 30 days from device receipt to cancel and return the hardware for a full refund of the Initial Membership Fee, minus shipping. After 30 days, all Membership Fees are non-refundable, even if you stop using the service — you'll keep access until the end of your paid term. Monthly billers inside a 12-month commitment must either pay the remaining months as a lump sum or continue to the commitment end date. Engraving fees are never refunded.
“You have 30 days to change your mind about your Membership. After 30 days you can cancel your Membership solely in accordance with Section 6, but you will not be entitled to a refund unless we have failed to provide you with the WHOOP Device and Services.”

What doesn’t work for cancelling WHOOP
Based on 3 sources — Reddit, app reviews, and direct testing. Skip these and save yourself the loop.
- ✕ Deleting the WHOOP app or uninstalling the device — Membership continues to bill; WHOOP explicitly states Fees remain non-refundable even if you stop using the Services.
- ✕ Emailing support@whoop.com and expecting a human — Multiple Community posts report the support inbox is auto-handled by AI; users struggle to reach a human agent to unstick refunds.
- ✕ Cancelling mid-way through a 12-month commitment to stop payments — You must either pay the remaining months as a lump sum or continue paying to the commitment end date — the commitment is enforced.
- ✕ Cancelling but keeping the hardware after a free trial — WHOOP charges a $110 restocking fee if you cancel the 30-day trial but don't return the device.
- ✕ Requesting a refund after 30 days from device receipt — WHOOP does not accept returns beyond 30 days; refunds are only available if WHOOP failed to provide the Device and Services.
- ✕ Cancelling to escape prepaid upfront (12 or 24 month) plans mid-term — Upfront-paid members can only cancel at the end of the upfront period — no prorated refund for unused months.
- ✕ Downgrading to recoup part of the current membership — Downgrades take effect only at next billing date and include no partial refunds or credits for unused time.
How WHOOP will try to keep you
WHOOP may respond with a retention offer — a discount, a free month, or a downgrade to a cheaper tier. Don't engage with the counteroffer. Restate that you want a full cancellation and cite the consumer law again if they push back.
They’ll say: “AI-only reply loop when you email support”
You say: Reply to the AI thread with the exact phrase 'escalate to a human agent under UK/EU consumer rights' and cite your order number + 30-day window. Multiple Community posts confirm this is the only way past the bot.
They’ll say: “'Pause or downgrade instead of cancel' offer”
You say: Decline — downgrades do not refund any unused time and only take effect at the next renewal, so pausing costs you the same money for less service.
They’ll say: “Extending the return window verbally while stalling the label”
You say: State the receipt date in writing and remind them the 30-day return clock is fixed by their own Terms of Use. Prepaid labels are meant to arrive within 1–3 business days; if not, escalate.
They’ll say: “'Your membership is still active so we can't refund yet'”
You say: Members report refunds pending because WHOOP's system still shows the membership active after cancellation. Insist support manually terminate the membership record before the refund clock starts.
They’ll say: “Restocking fee threat on trial cancellations”
You say: The $110 restocking fee only applies if you keep the hardware. Ship the sensor + battery pack back within 30 days using the prepaid label and the fee cannot be charged.
Your rights when cancelling
Consumer law varies by where you live. The strongest hook for your country is the one to lead with when you contact the company — pick the one that applies and quote it in your email.
United States
- FTC Click-to-Cancel Rule (2024+)Cancel must be as easy as sign-up.
The Federal Trade Commission’s Click-to-Cancel rule requires WHOOP to make cancelling at least as simple as signing up — same channel, same number of clicks. If they buried the cancel button or forced a phone call, they’re in violation; report to reportfraud.ftc.gov.
- California ARL (auto-renewal law)Renewal must be cancellable online.
California Business & Professions Code §17602 forces any company billing California residents on auto-renewal to provide an online cancel mechanism. Lawsuits have been won on this; companies often refund quickly when it’s cited.
- Restore Online Shoppers’ Confidence Act (ROSCA)Negative-option billing must be clearly disclosed.
Federal law (15 U.S.C. §8401) requires WHOOP to clearly disclose any negative-option / auto-renewal terms before charging. Buried terms = potential federal violation. Report to the FTC alongside any FTC complaint.
United Kingdom
- Consumer Contracts Regulations 201314-day cooling-off on new subscriptions.
You can terminate any continuous service contract within 14 days of starting it and recover any payment, no questions asked. Applies regardless of WHOOP’s own policy.
- Consumer Rights Act 2015Services must be as described.
If WHOOP’s service was misrepresented or didn’t deliver what was promised, you have a statutory right to remedy (repair, refund, or price reduction) regardless of their terms.
European Union
- Consumer Rights Directive 2011/83/EU14-day right of withdrawal across all EU states.
EU-wide statutory right to withdraw from any distance-sold contract within 14 days. Mirrored into local law in every member state. WHOOP must honour it regardless of where they’re headquartered.
- Digital Content Directive (EU) 2019/770Refund rights for digital content failures.
Specific to digital subscriptions — gives you the right to a price reduction or contract termination when WHOOP’s digital service is not as advertised, with no time limit beyond the contract period.
Worldwide
- Card-issuer chargebackYour bank can reverse the charge.
Visa, Mastercard, and Amex all run chargeback schemes — “goods/services not as described” or “subscription not cancelled” are valid reason codes everywhere they operate. Your bank handles the dispute; WHOOP has ~45 days to defend.
