Established in 2011, KiwiCo delivers STEM crates for kids ranging from $23.95 to $43.90 monthly. Maybe the "Bluey" obsession is cheaper than these boxes piling up in the corner. You can save up to $280 annually by cancelling. Visit KiwiCo.com to stop the charges. Trustpilot holds over 25,000 reviews, yet Pissed Consumer highlights frustration with "billing cycles" and "shipping delays" totaling hundreds of complaints in the last 3 years. Like the recent streaming service price hikes causing churn, parents are cutting costs everywhere. It works on Desktop and Mobile (iOS/Android). Avoid the "unable to cancel" headache reported by users.
How to Cancel KiwiCo on iPhone (iOS)
Most users try to find a button in the app, but it usually isn't there. Use Safari instead.
1 Open Safari
Launch the Safari app on your iPhone. Since KiwiCo does not typically allow subscription management directly inside their mobile app due to Apple's fee policies, you must use the browser.
2 Log In to Your Account
Go to the KiwiCo homepage and tap the Menu icon (three lines) in the top corner. Select Log In and enter your credentials.
3 Access Subscriptions
Once logged in, tap your name or the profile icon to open the menu. Select My Account and then tap on the Subscriptions tab to see your active crates.
4 Edit the Subscription
Find the specific subscription you want to stop. Tap the Edit button next to that subscription. This is where they hide the settings.
5 Cancel Subscription
Scroll down to the bottom of the page. You will see a link that says Cancel Subscription. Tap it. You might have to decline a "pause" offer or a discount before the cancellation is finalized.
How to Cancel KiwiCo on Android
Android users often report getting stuck in the "pause" loop. Make sure you click all the way through to confirm.
1 Open Chrome
Launch Chrome or your preferred mobile browser. The KiwiCo app often redirects you to the web anyway, so starting here saves time.
2 Navigate to My Account
Log in to your account. Tap the profile icon in the top right corner and select My Account from the dropdown menu.
3 Manage Subscriptions
Tap on Subscriptions. You will see a list of all active lines (like Koala Crate or Tinker Crate).
4 Initiate Cancellation
Tap Edit next to the crate you want to remove. Look for the Cancel Subscription link at the very bottom of the details page.
5 Confirm Your Choice
Follow the on-screen prompts. They will ask why you are leaving. Select a reason and confirm the cancellation to stop future billing.
How to Cancel KiwiCo on Desktop
Using a desktop is often faster because the mobile site can be a bit cramped with all the pop-ups.
1 Go to the Website
Open your browser and log in at KiwiCo.com. This is generally the most reliable way to cancel without glitches.
2 Click My Account
In the top right corner, click on your name to reveal the dropdown menu. Select My Account.
3 Select Subscriptions
Click the Subscriptions card or tab. This displays every active crate associated with your email.
4 Edit Subscription Settings
Click the Edit link next to the subscription you wish to terminate. If you have multiple children signed up, you must do this for each one individually.
5 Finalize Cancellation
Locate the Cancel Subscription link at the bottom of the page. Click it, bypass the retention offers (they might offer a free month), and confirm your cancellation.
What is KiwiCo Cancellation Policy
KiwiCo operates on an auto-renewal basis. This means your subscription renews automatically at the end of your chosen term (monthly, 3, 6, or 12 months). To avoid being charged for the next cycle, you must cancel by 11:59 PM PST on the day prior to your renewal date. If you cancel in the middle of a prepaid term (like a 12-month sub), they generally do not offer refunds for the remaining months. You will simply continue to receive boxes until the term ends. It is frustrating, but that is the trade-off for the bulk discount.
Before You Cancel KiwiCo: What You Should Know
Check Your Renewal Date
Log in and check exactly when your term ends. If you just renewed a 6-month pass yesterday, cancelling now won't get your money back.
Use Your Points
If you have accumulated rewards points, check if you can use them on a shop item before you cut ties. They might vanish once the account goes dormant.
Pause Option
KiwiCo allows you to "Pause" a subscription for a month or two. This is useful if you are just going on vacation, but be careful. Many users forget they paused it, and then get hit with a surprise charge two months later.
Having Trouble Cancelling Your KiwiCo Subscription?
Sometimes the "Cancel" button seems to disappear. Here is what to do:
- Check the Parent Account: Ensure you are logged into the main parent account, not a gifter account if someone else bought it.
- Disable Ad Blockers: Sometimes browser extensions hide the cancellation link at the bottom of the page.
- Email Support: If the website is glitching, email
[email protected]. Include your order number and explicitly state "I want to cancel immediately." - Check Third Parties: Did you buy it through a bundle or a third-party site? You might need to cancel there instead.
