How to manage your subscription

How to subscribe, change or cancel Surfr Plus and PRO. For subscriptions bought in the App Store, on Google Play, or directly on our website via Stripe.

💡 Where you manage your subscription depends on where you bought it: the App Store, Google Play, or directly on our website.

🔍 Where did you subscribe?

  • Apple App Store you subscribed on an iPhone or iPad

  • Google Play you subscribed on an Android phone

  • Our website you subscribed at thesurfr.app/subscribe, and payment was handled by Stripe

Not sure? Open Subscriptions in the App Store or Google Play. If Surfr isn't listed there, you subscribed through our website, search your inbox for the Stripe payment receipt you received at checkout.


💎 Subscribe to Surfr Plus or PRO

Upgrading is quick and easy!

  1. Open the Surfr app

  2. From your Profile, go to Settings

  3. Tap Manage subscription

You can also subscribe directly from the App Store or Play Store, or on our website at thesurfr.app/subscribe with a 14-day free trial, and payment handled securely by Stripe.

📧 Subscribing on our website? Use the email you log in with. Your subscription activates on the account belonging to the email address you enter at checkout. If you used a different address, message us in the chat and we'll link it to the right account.


🔄 Change your subscription

You can manage your subscription in the Surfr app, via the store where you purchased it, or, if you subscribed on our website, in the Stripe customer portal.

With Surfr, you can:

  • Switch between Surfr Plus and PRO

  • Change your billing cycle (monthly ↔ yearly)

Where to manage

  • App Store or Google Play subscription: best managed via the Surfr app (Profile → Settings → Manage subscription)

  • You can also manage an Apple subscription via the App Store

  • On Google Play, changes are handled via the Surfr app, but will be reflected in the store

  • Website subscription: open the Stripe payment receipt email you received at checkout and tap the link to manage your subscription

When do changes take effect?

  • Upgrades (e.g. Plus → PRO) take effect immediately

  • Downgrades (e.g. PRO → Plus) take effect at the next renewal date

If a change is scheduled, it will appear as a pending change in the app and in your store subscription settings.


Billing differences

When upgrading from Plus annual to PRO monthly, billing will be adjusted automatically:

  • Apple will issue a partial refund

  • Google Play typically converts this into extra free time

Subscribed on our website and the amounts don't look right to you? Message us in the chat and we'll check it for you.


🔁 Does my subscription renew automatically?

Yes. Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period — whether you subscribed through the App Store, Google Play or our website. You keep your plan until you cancel.

Started a 14-day free trial? You won't be charged as long as you cancel before the trial ends.


🥺 Cancel your subscription

We're sad to see you go, but hope to catch you again soon!

Our website (Stripe)

A website subscription isn't listed in the App Store or Google Play. You can cancel it through Stripe:

  1. Open the Stripe payment receipt email you received when you subscribed

  2. Tap the link to manage your subscription

  3. Choose Cancel plan

Can't find the email? Search your inbox for Surfr, and check your spam folder. If it's really gone, message us in the chat with the email address you used at checkout and we'll help you out.

Cancelling doesn't cut you off straight away. You keep your plan until the end of the period you already paid for. After that your account switches to the Free plan — and you're welcome back any time.
