Cancel a Client's Program Subscription (Coach)

How to cancel a client's program subscription as a coach — immediately or at end of billing cycle — including how to issue a refund and what happens to the client's access.

Updated today

As a coach you can cancel a client's subscription to any of your programs at any time. You have two options, cancel immediately, or let it run to the end of their current billing period. You can also issue a refund in the same action if needed.


📋 When to use this

  • A client has asked you to cancel their subscription

  • A client joined the wrong program and needs to be removed and refunded

  • You need to remove a client from a program for any reason


⚠️ Before you start

  • This article is for coaches cancelling a client's subscription. If you are a client cancelling your own subscription, see the related article below

  • The refund option available during cancellation applies to the most recent transaction only. To refund earlier payments, go to your Stripe dashboard


🖥 How to cancel from the program

  1. Go to your Programs list and click the relevant program

  2. Open the Active clients tab

  3. Click the ... menu next to the client's name

  4. Select Cancel subscription

  5. Choose how to cancel:

    • Cancel immediately — the client loses access straight away

    • Cancel at end of billing cycle — the client keeps access until the end of the period they have already paid for

  6. You will be offered the option to issue a refund on the most recent payment at this step — select it if needed


🖥 How to cancel from the client profile

  1. Go to your Clients list and click the client's name

  2. Select the Programs tab

  3. Click the menu next to the program name

  4. Select Cancel subscription and follow the same steps as above


💡 What happens after cancellation

Cancel immediately: The client loses access to new training and active program features straight away. Their past training history and Personal Records remain in their account permanently.

Cancel at end of billing cycle: The client stays active until the end of their current paid period, then loses access automatically. No further charges are taken.

Refunds: If you issued a refund, it typically appears within 5 to 10 business days depending on the client's bank.


🔧 Troubleshooting and FAQs

The client still appears as Active after I cancelled

  • If you chose to cancel at the end of the billing cycle, they will remain Active until that date — this is correct. Refresh your dashboard to confirm the scheduled cancellation is showing.

I need to refund a payment from more than one month ago

  • The cancel flow only covers the most recent transaction. For older payments, go to your Stripe dashboard and issue refunds from there directly.

The client was cancelled but is still being charged

  • Contact FITR Support immediately with the client's email, the program name, and the charge details. Include the date you cancelled and a screenshot of the cancellation confirmation if possible.
