Refund policy

Albert Genius refund expectations

Albert’s official policy is that it does not provide refunds for monthly Albert subscriptions, including Genius, so cancellation mainly prevents future charges. Cardholders still have standard billing‑error rights under federal law.

Check my refund options
Monthly subscriptions are non‑refundable by policy
Albert’s Genius refund help article states that Albert does not offer refunds for monthly Albert subscriptions, meaning charges already posted are generally not refunded through Albert’s own policies.
Pausing services doesn’t trigger a refund
Pausing Smart money savings or reducing app usage does not change Albert’s refund stance or subscription status; without deactivation or closure, Genius charges can continue under the auto‑renew structure.

If you believe an Albert Genius charge is incorrect despite Albert’s no‑refund policy, gather your Albert deactivation confirmation, plan screenshots, and card statement, then follow FTC billing‑error dispute steps with your card issuer while continuing to work with Albert support.

Service status

How Albert Genius fits into Albert subscription plans

Understanding how Genius is packaged and renewed helps you choose the right cancellation action.

  • Genius is an active paid plan tier

    Albert currently offers multiple subscription tiers, including Genius, with benefits layered on top of lower tiers like Basic and Standard. Genius remains an active plan option within Albert’s product lineup.

  • Plans auto‑renew until deactivated

    Albert states that fee payments for its subscription plans automatically renew until you deactivate or close your account, and that plans will auto‑renew until canceled or the account is closed.

  • Plan and billing are managed inside Albert

    To see which plan is active and how you are billed, Albert directs you to the app’s Profile > Menu > Payments screen, not to Apple or Google subscription menus.

  • Genius is governed by Terms of Use

    Albert’s Terms of Use describe Albert Genius as an AI‑powered assistant integrated into its services and clarify that subscription payments continue until you cancel under those Terms.

Cancellation mechanics

Deactivation vs permanent account closure in Albert

Albert distinguishes between deactivating your account (which stops subscription billing) and permanently closing it (which shuts down all Albert accounts).

  • Deactivation pauses subscription payments

    Albert’s deactivation article states that deactivating your account will pause Albert subscription payments while leaving the account capable of future reactivation, which is the core step to stop ongoing Genius billing.

  • Closure permanently ends all Albert accounts

    Permanent account closure will close all Albert accounts indefinitely and stop you from sending or receiving funds with Albert; it also affects future direct deposits, which are returned to the sender.

  • Balances must meet requirements first

    To deactivate, your Albert Savings and Investing balances must be $0; to permanently close, all Albert accounts, including Cash, Savings, Investing, and any Instant advance, must be at $0 or repaid.

  • Autopay for advances and loans can continue

    Albert warns that, even after deactivation, if you have autopay enabled for advance or loan payments, funds may continue to transfer to repay those balances until they are fully paid.

Before canceling

How to confirm which Albert plan is charging you

Verifying your current plan and charges inside Albert helps ensure you’re canceling the correct subscription.

  • Use the Payments screen in the app

    Albert instructs customers to go to Profile > Menu > Payments in the app to see their payment details, including which plan (such as Genius) is active and how fee payments renew.

  • Look for recurring Albert subscription debits

    Albert’s historical disclosures explain that subscription fees are pulled by ACH or similar debits from the bank account you linked to Albert, so you may see Albert‑branded debits in that account’s transaction history.

  • Differentiate subscription from other Albert activity

    Albert Cash, Instant advances, loans, and card purchases can also create Albert‑related transactions, so review transaction descriptions and the Payments screen to distinguish subscription fees from other activity.

  • Subscriptions in other apps are separate

    Albert’s Terms note that when it helps you locate or manage other merchants’ subscriptions via Albert Budgeting, Albert does not cancel those subscriptions itself; you must follow each merchant’s terms separately.

Albert Genius cancellation FAQ

Provider-specific answers about billing, timing, refunds, and confirmation.

You cancel your Genius subscription by deactivating or closing your Albert account, not through Apple or Google. In the Albert app, go to Profile > Menu > Payments > Help center > Deactivate or close my accounts and follow the prompts to deactivate. Alternatively, visit albert.com/deactivate in a browser, sign in, and choose to deactivate your account. Deactivation pauses Albert subscription payments, including Genius, for future billing cycles.
To cancel your Albert subscription online, use Albert’s official deactivation page rather than the app stores. Go to albert.com/deactivate, sign in with your Albert credentials, and choose to deactivate your account if you only want to stop subscription billing. Confirm all prompts; once deactivation processes, Albert’s auto‑renewing plan fees, including Genius, stop for future cycles. Keep a copy of any confirmation screen or message for your records.
Pausing Smart money does not cancel your Albert Genius subscription. Albert’s refund article explicitly notes that pausing Smart money savings transfers does not pause Albert subscription payments. To stop Genius billing, you must deactivate or close your Albert account through the app’s Profile > Menu > Payments > Help center path or via albert.com/deactivate. Treat Smart money settings as separate from subscription status.
Albert’s stated policy is that it does not offer refunds for monthly Albert subscriptions, including Genius. If you cancel after a charge posts, Albert generally will not refund that period under its help‑center guidance. However, if you believe a charge is unauthorized or in error, you can contact Albert support for review and, if needed, follow FTC credit card billing‑error dispute procedures with your card issuer.
If you see Albert charges after canceling, first confirm that deactivation or closure succeeded by checking Profile > Menu > Payments in the app. If your plan still appears active, repeat the deactivation steps or use albert.com/deactivate. If the plan shows inactive but charges continue, contact Albert via the Help center and provide dates and screenshots. If Albert cannot resolve a card billing error, follow FTC guidance to dispute it with your issuer.
