What happens to my Eight Sleep Pod after I cancel the Autopilot subscription?

Your Pod hardware continues to work, but you lose access to all smart features: automatic temperature adjustment, sleep tracking, vibration alarm, and personalized sleep insights. You retain only manual temperature control via the app.

Will I get a refund when I cancel?

Eight Sleep does not appear to offer prorated refunds for unused subscription time. The subscription remains active until the end of the current billing period. Hardware returns require initiation within 30 days of receipt, and orders can only be cancelled within 24 hours of shipment.

Can I reactivate my Autopilot subscription after cancelling?

Yes, you can reactivate your Autopilot subscription at any time by returning to the Membership or Subscription section in the Eight Sleep app and selecting a plan. All smart features will be restored once billing resumes.

Can I cancel during the first 12 months?

Eight Sleep states that Autopilot is mandatory for the first 12 months but that you can 'cancel anytime.' In practice, this means you are billed for 12 months regardless — the 'cancel anytime' language refers to not being locked into multi-year contracts, not waiving the first-year commitment.

What happens to my sleep data if I cancel?

Eight Sleep may continue to use anonymized data after account deactivation. When you deactivate your account, identifiable information is removed, though backup copies may persist briefly in archives. Contact support@eightsleep.com to request full data deletion.

How long does it take for the cancellation to take effect?

Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle. You retain full Autopilot access until that date, after which features revert to manual-only mode.
