Choose your cancellation route

The exact steps depend on who charges you. Match your billing source below, then follow that route — canceling in the wrong place is the most common reason a subscription keeps charging.

Billing source Steps
direct billing 4 Recommended
Apple App Store billing 3 Go →
Google Play billing 3 Go →

Cancel via direct billing Recommended

Billed through direct billing · online

  1. 1

    Open the billed account

    Sign in to the Brilliant account associated with Premium.

  2. 2

    Find the official subscription controls

    Open account settings and the Premium subscription controls.

  3. 3

    Complete the cancellation

    Keep the confirmation and check which date Premium access ends.

Timing

  • Cancel before the provider’s renewal deadline if you want to avoid the next recurring charge.

Watch out

Before you cancel, keep these

Two minutes of housekeeping now saves a support headache later if a charge reappears.

  • The cancellation confirmation email or reference number — your proof if a charge reappears.
  • The date your access ends, so you know exactly what you have already paid for.
  • A screenshot of the final statement after the billing cycle closes.
  • Which billing path you canceled (e.g. app store vs. the provider directly) — canceling one may not stop the other.

What to say to support

If you end up on live chat or the phone, a clear, specific request gets you through faster. This is a sample template — adapt the details to your own account.

Hi, I'd like to cancel my Brilliant Premium subscription. Please stop the recurring charge effective at the end of my current billing period and send me a written confirmation with a cancellation reference number. If any retention or downgrade offer applies, I'd like to review it before you finalize.

More to consider

Before you cancel Brilliant Premium

Confirm the account owner, receipt issuer, active plan, next renewal date, and any data or benefits that may be lost. Cancellation generally stops a future renewal; it does not by itself guarantee a refund for a completed charge.

Direct answer: To cancel, open the account that was used to subscribe and stop the active subscription there — for example, if you subscribed through the Brilliant mobile app on iPhone, cancel in your Apple Subscriptions settings (Brilliant is available on the App Store) ‎Brilliant: Learn Math & Coding App - App Store. After cancellation you normally stop future charges while keeping access for the paid time you already purchased.

Direct answer

If you need to cancel right now, identify where you paid (Brilliant website versus a mobile store) and cancel from that billing provider. If you subscribed in-app on iPhone, manage or cancel via Apple’s subscription settings for your Apple ID ‎Brilliant: Learn Math & Coding App - App Store. If you used another platform, open that platform’s subscription management and stop auto‑renewal there.

Practical takeaway: find the receipt or the card statement showing who billed you first — the listed merchant or “Apple”/“Google” tells you where to cancel.

Understanding Your Brilliant Subscription

What to check before you cancel:

  • Who billed you: the Brilliant website, Apple App Store, or Google Play. Your receipt or bank statement shows the billing merchant.
  • Billing cadence: monthly or annual plans renew automatically unless cancelled.
  • Access model: most subscriptions allow continued access until the end of the paid period after you cancel.

Practical example: if your bank record shows “Apple*Brilliant,” cancel in Apple Subscriptions to stop future billing. If the charge lists a Brilliant domain or merchant name, manage the subscription via your Brilliant account page or web billing portal.

Steps to solve it

Follow this compact checklist to cancel with minimal confusion.

Checklist

  • Locate the receipt or the confirmation email to identify the billing provider.
  • If billed by Apple, open iPhone Settings → your name → Subscriptions → select Brilliant → Cancel.
  • If billed by Google Play, open Google Play → Menu → Subscriptions → select Brilliant → Cancel.
  • If billed directly by Brilliant on the web, sign in at your Brilliant account and look for Subscription or Billing settings to cancel.
  • Save confirmation screenshots or emails showing cancellation.

Practical takeaway: keep the cancellation confirmation in case a charge is disputed later. If you can’t find the billing source, search your email for “Brilliant” and the payment date to reveal the receipt.

What to Expect After Cancellation

After you cancel, typical subscription behavior is:

  • Future renewals stop; you do not receive new charges once the current paid term ends.
  • You generally retain access to paid content until that billing period expires.
  • Some account features may revert after your paid time ends.

Practical example: canceling mid‑month usually preserves access until the end of that month’s paid term. Save any progress or exported content you want to keep before the end of access.

Note: exact access terms and timing can vary by payment provider and plan. Check the receipt or the account page used to subscribe for precise dates.

Refund Policy and Considerations

Refunds and trial rules depend on where you purchased the subscription:

  • Platform providers (Apple, Google) often handle in‑app purchase refunds through their stores.
  • Web purchases are typically handled by the vendor’s billing team and may follow their published refund policy.

Practical tip: if you believe a charge is incorrect or you need a refund, collect your receipt and cancellation confirmation, then contact the billing provider shown on your statement. Have dates and amounts ready to speed resolution.

Verify current refund and trial policies with your payment provider and the merchant before assuming any automatic refund will apply.

Troubleshooting

If cancellation doesn’t take effect or charges continue:

  • Reconfirm which account and email were used to subscribe. Multiple accounts commonly cause confusion.
  • Check the subscription list in the relevant store (Apple/Google) and in your Brilliant account settings.
  • Clear app cache or sign out and back in to refresh account status in the app.
  • Keep screenshots of subscription pages and any error messages.

Common pitfall: deleting the app does not cancel an in‑app subscription. Always cancel in the billing provider’s subscription manager.

Contacting Support for Assistance

If you can’t cancel or you need help with billing, gather your receipt, account email, and screenshots, then contact the support channel associated with how you paid:

  • For Apple or Google purchases, begin with their subscription support in the respective store.
  • For web purchases, look for the vendor’s account or billing support inside your Brilliant account or on their website.

Practical tip: include the transaction date, the billed amount, and a copy of the charge line from your bank statement when you contact support to accelerate resolution.

Conclusion and next steps

Quick summary:

  • Find who billed you, cancel at that provider, and keep the confirmation.
  • Expect access through the paid period; check refund rules with the billing provider.
  • Save receipts and screenshots in case you need support.
