I had it for free in the first year and now they are charging $50 for the second year. This is mostly my mistake because I forgot to cancel the subscription.<\/p>\n<p>However, the problem is that we are often not aware of the agreement when we buy a subscription-based product\/service. Then, your Paypal account will regularly send payments to the service providers without asking your permissions. Therefore, I recommend you to check terms of service and agreements carefully before making any purchase on the Internet.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, Paypal keeps record of all subscriptions in our profile. The feature is called preapproved payments and we can use it to manage recurring payment, subscription, automatic billing or installment plan.<\/p>\n<p>Follow the steps to disable subscription\/recurring payments in your Paypal account.<\/p>\n<p>1. Login to your Paypal account<\/p>\n<p>2. Go to <strong>Profile<\/strong> on navigation bar.<\/p>\n<p>3. Navigate to <strong>My money<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>4. Click on <strong>Update<\/strong> on the option\u00a0<strong>My preapproved payments<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3575\" alt=\"paypal-recurring-payment\" src=\"https:\/\/www.techwalls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/paypal-recurring-payment.jpg\" width=\"650\" height=\"265\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.techwalls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/paypal-recurring-payment.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.techwalls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/paypal-recurring-payment-300x122.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>5. You will now see a list of all your preapproved payments with different statuses like <em>Active<\/em>, <em>Inactive<\/em> or <em>Cancelled<\/em>. To disable any active subscription, you just need to click on the merchant and choose <strong>Cancel<\/strong> in the Status section.<\/p>\n<p>Notice than cancelling the subscription will not return your previous paid money. You also can&#8217;t reactivate the subscription. In case you want to re-establish it, you will need to set up again on merchant&#8217;s website.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve just lost $50 from my Paypal account because of the recurring payment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":42,"featured_media":3575,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1146],"tags":[1147,696,437],"class_list":{"0":"post-3574","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-guide","8":"tag-guide-2","9":"tag-paypal","10":"tag-tutorial","11":"entry"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>How to Disable Recurring Payments in Paypal<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Paypal keeps record of all subscriptions in our profile.
