How to Cancel Geocaching® and Get a Refund
Geocaching® subscriptions are billed through Apple or Google, not inside the app, so you cancel them in your store settings. Below are the steps for both iPhone and Android, how to request a refund, and what users report about Geocaching® billing.

- 2Tap your name at the top of the screen to open your Apple ID.
- 3Tap Subscriptions to see every app that bills you through Apple.
- 4Find Geocaching® in the list and tap it. If it is not there, you may have subscribed through the app itself or a different Apple ID.
- 5Tap Cancel Subscription and confirm. You keep access to Geocaching® until the current billing period ends, then it will not renew.

How to get a refund for Geocaching®
Canceling stops future renewals but does not refund a charge you already paid. Request the refund from the store separately.
Go to reportaproblem.apple.com, sign in with your Apple ID, find the Geocaching® charge, choose Request a refund, pick a reason and submit.
Open the Play Store, go to your order history, select the Geocaching® purchase, tap Report a problem and request a refund. Requests within 48 hours are often auto-approved.
What Geocaching® users report about billing

Geocaching® cancellation: frequently asked questions
Does canceling Geocaching® stop the charges immediately?
No. Canceling stops future renewals but you keep access until the end of the billing period you already paid for. After that date Geocaching® will not charge you again. If you were charged unexpectedly, request a refund separately.
Can I get a refund from Geocaching®?
Refunds are handled by Apple or Google, not by Geocaching® directly. On iPhone, go to reportaproblem.apple.com, sign in, find the Geocaching® charge and choose Request a refund. On Android, open the Play Store order history, select the purchase and tap Report a problem. Requests made within 48 hours are often approved automatically.
Why is Geocaching® still charging me after I canceled?
The most common causes: the cancellation did not finish (check that Subscriptions shows Geocaching® as Expired), you have a second subscription under a different Apple ID or Google account, or you canceled inside the app but not in the store where billing actually lives. Cancel it in the App Store subscription settings to be sure.
How do I delete my Geocaching® account?
Deleting your account is separate from canceling the subscription. To remove your data, delete the account inside the Geocaching® app settings first, then cancel the subscription in the App Store and uninstall the app. Canceling alone does not erase your account.
Will I lose access to Geocaching® right after I cancel?
No. You keep full access to Geocaching® until the paid period ends, so there is no benefit to waiting. Cancel as soon as you decide, and enjoy the remaining days you already paid for.
