Apps are a fundamental part of the Shopify experience. They help you grow your business, add functionality to your website and earn more revenue. However, there are going to be times when your Shopify app is no longer relevant to your brand. There are several reasons for this:
- The charges for the apps installed have gone up and are no longer cost-effective.
- The trial period for the app is running out and there has been no value added to your brand.
- There is a conflict between two apps that’s causing problems on your store.
- You’ve bought another app that can also do the same function.
- You’ve decided to close your Shopify store and want to know how to cancel Shopify plan and apps.
- Despite your best efforts, you can’t operate the app.
In these circumstances you need to uninstall the app. In the event that the app is free, there should be no issues to worry about. You’ll be able to uninstall your app and then not be worried about any future charges. But the majority of apps are actually paid for. Therefore, you might be concerned that when you uninstall the app, you will still be charged.
How App Subscription Charges Work
When uninstalling a Shopify subscription plugin and not looking to get another charge, you need to understand how Shopify billing works. Shopify billing is done every 30 days. Any charges for apps, payments, general subscriptions are included on that bill.
However, this means that if you don’t install an app on the same day as your bill, you can be behind on your app payments. Therefore, uninstalling your app might not remove the charge on the next month or stop Shopify billing for the app. Or you might get a partial charge for the app usage. However, the month after that, you should no longer be billed for the usage of the app.
That is unless the app developer bills outside of Shopify, like through Stripe. If this is the case, then you should contact the app developer to have your invoices terminated.
