Tips & Things to Watch For

Cancel Subscription vs Delete Account - Critical Difference

Critical

The Terms distinguish between canceling a subscription (Section 8.8) and deleting your account (Section 3.3.4). To stop paying but keep your data and free account, cancel the subscription. To permanently remove everything, delete the account. The documentation separates these into different help pages.

Account Deletion is Permanent - No Data Recovery

Critical

The Terms explicitly state: 'Please note that once you delete your Account, you will not be able to reactivate it or retrieve any content or information associated with it.' If you want to stop paying but keep your data, you must cancel your subscription (Section 8.8) rather than delete your account entirely. Navigate to 'how to delete my account' page in Documentation.

Premium to Pro Migration Prorated Refund

Pro Tip

If you're currently on the old Premium plan and switch to the new Pro plan, Grammarly will cancel your Premium subscription and provide a prorated refund for the remainder of your subscription period. This means you can switch mid-cycle without losing money on your Premium subscription.

Educational Institution Discounts Available

Pro Tip

Grammarly offers discounts for educational institutions. The pricing page mentions 'Yes! Learn more about our discounts for educational institutions' but doesn't specify the discount amount. This could apply to both students and educational organizations.
