Webflow’s refund and billing policies are strict, especially with annual hosting plans. Here’s how Webflow handles refunds and downgrades:
1. Refund Policy for Annual Hosting
- Webflow does not offer refunds for canceled annual hosting plans after the 14-day period.
- If you cancel within 14 days of purchase or renewal, you may be eligible for a refund by contacting Webflow support.
- After 14 days, you can cancel the plan, but your hosting will remain active until the end of the annual billing cycle. You won't be charged again, but no prorated refund is issued.
- This policy applies even if you no longer publish or use the site.
2. Downgrading from Annual to Monthly
- Webflow does not allow direct downgrades from annual to monthly plans mid-cycle.
- To switch to a monthly plan, you must:
- Cancel the existing annual plan, which will remain active until its expiration.
- Then, wait until the annual plan ends, and at that point, purchase a monthly plan.
- Alternatively, you can contact Webflow support to ask if early cancellation and switching is possible, but they are not obligated to accommodate that.
3. Key Considerations
- Billing is upfront — you pay the full annual amount on purchase or renewal.
- Partial-month or unused-time refunds are not provided after the eligible refund period.
- If you want more flexibility, choose monthly billing from the beginning, although the total cost is higher long-term.
Summary
Webflow does not issue refunds for annual hosting cancellations after 14 days. Downgrades from annual to monthly are not automatic; you must wait for the annual period to expire before switching. Always evaluate your site’s hosting needs before choosing an annual plan.
