Will I lose my data when I cancel Zoho Desk?

No. Zoho Desk explicitly states it will not delete your data when your subscription is downgraded. Your tickets, contacts, and settings remain intact, though features above the Free tier limits will be disabled.

Can I get a refund after canceling?

Zoho does not automatically issue refunds for unused time in the current billing cycle. You can request a prorated refund by emailing payments@zohocorp.com after canceling.

What happens to my account after cancellation?

Your account is downgraded to the Free Edition, which supports up to 3 agents. You keep access to basic help desk features without further charges. Paid features (automation, advanced reports, multi-department, etc.) are disabled.

Can I reactivate my paid plan after canceling?

Yes. You can upgrade back to a paid plan at any time by returning to your Subscription settings in Zoho Desk and selecting an appropriate plan in the Zoho Store.

Who is allowed to cancel the subscription?

Only the account's Super Admin (primary contact) has permission to manage or cancel the Zoho Desk subscription. Regular agents and administrators cannot perform this action.

What if I can't find the Cancel Subscription option?

As an alternative, navigate directly to the Manage Subscription page within Zoho Desk, scroll to the bottom, and click the 'Cancel Subscription' button. If you still have trouble, contact Zoho support via email at payments@zohocorp.com.
