The short answer
This covers the Keepa Data Access / Keepa Pro subscription (monthly and annual) and the separate Keepa API token plans, Keepa has no other one-off purchases. Third-party pricing guides all report the same thing: you can cancel at any time, cancellation only takes effect at the end of the current billing period, and no refund or pro-rata credit is given for unused time. Reviewers describe being told 'we don't do refunds' after asking within minutes of subscribing, and after an annual plan auto-renewed. Statutory withdrawal/consumer rights and a card chargeback are the levers that have actually recovered money, not Keepa's own policy, several reviewers say the bank, not Keepa, resolved it.

How long does a Keepa refund take?
Most merchants agree to a straightforward refund within 1 to 3 working days of a well-written email request. Once agreed, the money itself takes another 3 to 5 working days to land, that part is card-network processing and no merchant can skip it. If nothing has arrived 10 working days after a written “refund approved”, reply on the same thread asking for the ARN (acquirer reference number), which your bank can trace.

Refund FAQ for Keepa
Cancel it yourself on the web, Keepa has no cancellation phone line or store. Log in at **keepa.com**, click your username in the top-right, open **Subscriptions** (Account Settings → Subscription) and stop the renewal. Cancellation is effective at the **end of the current billing period**, so you keep Pro access until then and are not charged again. If you originally paid through PayPal, also kill the automatic payment agreement in PayPal as a belt-and-braces step. Email **info@keepa.com** the same day with the account email so you have a timestamped paper trail.
