Can I Pause My Subscription Instead of Canceling It?

Updated over 3 weeks ago

If you need a break from your brand monitoring, you might not want to cancel your BrandMentions subscription completely. If you plan to come back soon and want to keep your projects and data safe, you might want to contact the team for better alternatives.

Can I pause my BrandMentions subscription?

Yes, you can request to pause your subscription, even if there is no visible “Pause subscription” button in your account.

BrandMentions does not offer a self serve pause toggle inside the app, but our team can manually pause your subscription for you on request. During the pause period:

  • You are not billed for the subscription

  • Your account is put on hold

  • Your projects and data are preserved so you can return later

When the pause ends, your subscription can be reactivated and you can continue from where you left off.

Alternatives to pausing your subscription

If pausing is not the best option for you, consider these alternatives:

1. Downgrade to a lower plan

If you want to reduce costs but keep access to BrandMentions:

  • Switch to a lower tier plan with smaller limits and a lower price

  • Keep your account active while paying less during quieter periods

2. Cancel and reactivate later

If you are sure you will not use the platform for a while:

  • You can cancel your subscription from the Subscription or Billing section

  • Later, you can reactivate by choosing a new plan when you are ready to return

Before canceling, always check what happens to:

  • Your saved projects

  • Your collected mentions

  • Any reports or settings you might want to use again

Need help deciding?

If you are unsure whether to pause, downgrade, or cancel, contact the BrandMentions support team. They can review your situation and help you choose the option that fits your budget and future plans best.
