Stopping renewal and requesting a refund are two separate actions. A direct NordVPN purchase is cancelled in Nord Account. The 30-day money-back guarantee applies to an eligible first purchase, not an ordinary renewal.
Official account or cancellation path NordVPN
Check where the subscription was purchased
Open the receipt and identify NordVPN, Apple, Google Play, Amazon, or another retailer as the billing provider. The provider determines where the renewal and refund are handled.
Turn off a direct NordVPN renewal
Sign in to Nord Account and open Billing. Select Cancel next to Auto-renewal, then choose Cancel auto-renewal. The status should change to Off.
Use the store for a store-billed plan
Apple, Google Play, and Amazon subscriptions are cancelled through the matching store account. A retailer or reseller purchase follows that seller's terms.
Already charged? Keep the receipt and the cancellation confirmation. They are the useful part of a refund request.

For an eligible direct first purchase within 30 days, contact NordVPN support and use the verification link it provides. Choose the eligible payment, select Refund, provide the requested reason, and confirm the request.
⚠️ Watch out
- NordVPN's 30-day guarantee applies to the initial subscription purchase. A normal renewal is excluded unless local law requires otherwise.
- Apple decides refunds for Apple App Store purchases. Amazon handles Amazon Appstore purchases.
- NordVPN says eligible Google Play payments can be requested through its support, while payments from the last 48 hours can also be requested in Google Play.
- A retailer or reseller purchase must be taken back to that seller.
✓ Refund may be possible
An eligible initial subscription purchase can be refunded within 30 days. Renewed periods are excluded from that guarantee. Store and reseller purchases follow the billing provider's route, and local consumer law may add rights.
