What's the difference between pausing and cancelling?

Pausing your account

Pausing is a temporary option if you plan to return.

  • Avoid charges for up to 90 days

  • Resume anytime by selecting a plan

  • After 90 days, your account moves to a $10/month storage plan to retain your data


Cancelling your account

Cancelling permanently stops your subscription.

  • All billing stops immediately

  • Your data is scheduled for deletion after 30 days

  • After 30 days, all data is permanently removed

πŸ‘‰ We strongly recommend exporting your data before cancelling.


Shopify users: cancelling vs. storage plan

If you're using ViralSweep with Shopify, there's an important difference.

Shopify stores your promotion data automatically, so you don't need to stay on the storage plan to retain your data.
​

What this means:

  • You can cancel your ViralSweep subscription completely

  • Your data will still be stored within Shopify

  • You won't need the $10/month storage plan
