How to Cancel Brilliant.org
Need to cancel your Brilliant.org subscription? This guide will walk you through the cancellation process step-by-step. Whether you subscribed directly through Brilliant.org's website or through a mobile app, we'll show you exactly how to cancel.
Note: After canceling, you'll retain access to Brilliant.org premium features until the end of your current billing period. Your learning progress will be preserved, but you'll lose access to premium courses and features after your subscription expires.

Step 3: Navigate to Subscription or Billing
In the Account Settings page, look for "Subscription", "Billing", or "Premium" section. You'll see your current plan details, billing cycle, and next billing date.
Step 4: View Your Current Plan
Review your current subscription information, including:
- Your current plan tier
- Billing cycle (monthly or annual)

Troubleshooting
- Make sure you're signed in to the correct Brilliant.org account
