How to Cancel a Subscription with the Microsoft Payment System

Introduction

If you've made a purchase through the Microsoft Store and need to cancel a subscription, such as for the MindMap, File Manager, External User Manager or Teams Manager application from Solutions2Share, this article provides guidance on the steps you should follow.

Step-by-Step Solution

  1. Accessing the Microsoft 365 Admin Center:

    • Log into the Microsoft 365 Admin Center.
    • Select 'Billing' from the left navigation bar, and then choose 'Your products'.
    • Find the application for which you want to manage the subscription.
  2. Managing Subscriptions:

    • Within your product list, select the application you wish to cancel.
    • You'll be brought to a page where you can manage your licenses, including purchasing additional ones or cancelling existing ones.
    • To cancel, click on the 'Purchase licenses' button and follow the prompts to reduce the number of licenses to zero, effectively ending the subscription.
  3. Cancellation via Microsoft Store:

    • Alternatively, navigate to the Microsoft App Store and search for the application.
    • Click on the application and select 'Manage subscriptions'.
    • From there, you can adjust your licensing options or cancel the subscription.

    • After completing the cancellation process, ensure that no further invoices are scheduled for upcoming dates.
    • If necessary, contact Microsoft directly to confirm that your subscription will not renew.

Conclusion

Canceling a subscription through the Microsoft payment system is a user-driven process. While Solutions2Share support can provide guidance, direct control over the billing and cancellation lies with Microsoft. Reviewing official Microsoft documentation or reaching out to their support may be necessary for specific billing questions.

For any further queries or additional help, do not hesitate to respond to support emails from Solutions2Share. The team is prepared to offer assistance and ensure that your cancellation is processed correctly.

Remember, it's crucial to manually cancel the subscription to prevent automatic billing if you decide not to continue with the service. Regularly check your Microsoft Store account and subscription settings to maintain control over your purchases and service usage.
