Dwell says Dwell.com subscriptions can be canceled by visiting Subscription Settings and clicking Cancel subscription after signing in with the profile used to purchase the subscription. It says customers must cancel before the renewal date to prevent the charge; canceling on the renewal date sets the subscription to end the next year.
