Does AnkiWeb charge a subscription fee?

No. AnkiWeb is completely free to use. The only official paid Anki product is AnkiMobile for iOS, which is a one-time purchase of $24.99 — not a recurring subscription. If you are seeing recurring charges labeled 'Anki', they likely come from AnkiHub (a separate third-party deck service at app.ankihub.net) or AnkiPro (an unofficial imitation app unrelated to the Anki project).

Will my flashcard decks be deleted if I close my AnkiWeb account?

Your locally stored decks on the Anki desktop app or AnkiMobile will not be affected. Deleting your AnkiWeb account only removes the synced copy stored on Anki's servers. Export your collection first (File > Export in the desktop app) as a precaution.

What happens to my AnkiWeb data if I do nothing?

AnkiWeb automatically deletes your synced data after 6 months of inactivity. You will receive a warning email 30 days before the scheduled deletion.

Can I reactivate my AnkiWeb account after deletion?

No. Account deletion is permanent and all synced data is removed. You can create a new free AnkiWeb account at any time, but previously synced data cannot be recovered.

How do I cancel an AnkiHub subscription?

Log in at app.ankihub.net, click 'Settings', scroll to the 'Billing and Plans' section, and click the 'Membership Portal' button. In the Stripe portal, select 'Cancel plan' and confirm. Your access continues until the end of the current billing period.

How do I get a refund for AnkiMobile?

AnkiMobile is a one-time purchase through Apple. The Anki developers cannot process refunds directly. Submit a refund request via Apple's official refund page at reportaproblem.apple.com. First-time requests are often approved but are not guaranteed.
