Chegg-specific things to know

A few details that might affect your Chegg cancellation or billing.

Access continues until period ends
After cancelling, you can still use Chegg Study until your current billing period expires. Your account won't be charged again.
Mobile app subscriptions work differently
If you signed up through the iPhone or Android app, you'll need to cancel through your App Store or Google Play subscriptions instead.
Multiple Chegg services cancel separately
If you have multiple Chegg subscriptions like Study and Writing, each needs to be cancelled individually from your subscriptions page.

Before you cancel, keep this in mind

These details can help you avoid issues with your Chegg cancellation.

1. Check your billing source

Make sure you're cancelling through the same method you used to sign up. App store subscriptions can't be cancelled through the Chegg website.

2. Note your renewal date

Your access continues until your next billing date. Cancel at least a day before renewal to avoid being charged for another month.

3. Download any saved content

If you have saved solutions or study guides, make sure to download or screenshot them before your subscription expires.

Alternatives to cancelling your subscription

If you're cancelling due to cost or temporary non-use, these options might work better than cancelling completely.

Downgrade your Chegg plan

Chegg offers different service tiers at various price points. You might be able to switch to a cheaper option that still meets your needs.

  • Chegg Study (homework help and textbook solutions)

  • Chegg Writing (plagiarism checker and citation help)

  • Individual subject tutoring plans

Alternative ways to cancel Chegg

If you can't cancel through your Chegg account, you may need to go through your app store. The right option depends on how you originally signed up.

Apple App Store

If you subscribed to Chegg through the iPhone or iPad app, cancel through your Apple ID subscription settings.
