Discord refund policy
Discord states a refund policy with no set window, and you cancel in your own settings.
Discord refunds and cancellation
Ordinary · checked Oct 18, 2026
Discord's refund policy reads friendly, but it hands itself the last word: every request is judged case by case at its sole discretion, you get five days to ask, and you only ever get one Nitro refund in your life. That is no refund window, it is a maybe. Cancelling is the easy part, two taps in Settings, and you keep Nitro until the period you paid for runs out. Discretion plus a clean exit is a C.
- Refund window
- No set window
- How you cancel
- Yourself, in settings
- Getting your money back
The refund policy says every request is reviewed case by case and eligibility is decided at Discord's sole discretion, and that refunds are one-time only per purchase category, so a second Nitro refund is refused. For Nitro or a Server Boost you must write to billing support within 5 days of the purchase. Purchases made on an iOS device go to the App Store instead, and Orbs purchases are never refunded.
Stated on support.discord.com- How to cancel Discord
Nitro and Nitro Basic are cancelled from User Settings, under the Subscriptions tab, and the article says this can be done at any time. A subscription has to be cancelled on the same kind of device it was bought on: buy on mobile and you cancel on mobile or in the App Store or Google Play. Anyone locked out of their account is told to ask billing support through its form.
- Open Discord on desktop or in a browser
- Click the cogwheel beside your username to open User Settings
- Go to the Subscriptions tab
- Click Cancel in the Nitro or Nitro Basic banner
- Follow the prompts until the cancellation is confirmed
- What you keep afterwards
The article says a cancelled subscription ends at the close of the current billing period, and that Manage Nitro then shows the date it expires and the benefits stop. The paid services terms say the same: you keep the paid features for the time you already paid for, but get no refund. The account stays and drops back to the free tier. Cancelling can be undone before the period ends with Re-Subscribe.
Stated on support.discord.com- Renewals
The paid services terms say a subscription renews automatically at the then-current rate on each renewal date until it is cancelled, and that a free trial or promotional price rolls into the full price unless you cancel first. Discord says it may use the contact details on the account to send notices about renewals and recurring charges, but promises no reminder. Price rises take effect at the next billing period.

In your favour
- You cancel Nitro yourself in Settings, in about four clicks, with nobody to email.
- Cancel and you keep Nitro until the period you already paid for runs out.
- Change your mind before that date and Re-Subscribe puts it back as it was.
- There is a stated route to ask for a Nitro refund within 5 days of buying it.
Watch out for
- Refunds are decided case by case at Discord's sole discretion, so nothing is promised.
- Nitro refunds are one-time only: take one and you are never eligible again.
- Buy Nitro on an iPhone and Apple handles both the cancelling and the refund, not Discord.
- The terms say EU buyers give up the statutory right to withdraw once the purchase completes.
Getting help from Discord
Ordinary · checked Oct 18, 2026
A big written help centre and a ticket form that anyone can use, paying or not. What you will not find anywhere on those pages is when the support team works or how long it aims to take, so you send your question into the dark. No phone, no live chat with a person. That is the ordinary deal, and it is a C.
Ways to get help
Contact form or ticket
A request form for billing questions and refund requests, which the refund policy tells you to fill in using the email address on your Discord account. The same page points to a general support request form for anything else.
Stated on support.discord.comHelp centre
A written help centre covering account and server settings, Nitro and the shop, payments and billing, safety and troubleshooting, open to anyone without signing in. A separate developer help centre covers bots and apps.

In your favour
- Free users can file a ticket too, not only people paying for Nitro.
- The help centre spells out the cancelling steps for every kind of Discord subscription.
Watch out for
- No page says when support works or how fast it aims to reply.
- There is no phone line and no live chat with a person: everything goes through a form.
- Nothing on these pages says Nitro buys you a faster answer than a free account gets.
What these two grades rest on. Read on 18 October 2026: Discord's paid services terms, its refund policy, its help articles on cancelling a Discord subscription and on cancelling Nitro, and its help centre home page. Nobody here cancelled a plan, asked for a refund or contacted its support. They are graded apart from the five that make the GPA. How we grade refunds and support.
