General Information
The Age Notice Period & Conditions
The Age subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing cycle unless canceled in advance. To avoid being charged for the next cycle, you must cancel your subscription before the renewal date.
- Digital subscriptions: You will continue to have access until the end of your billing period after cancellation. You must cancel at least 24 hours before the renewal date to prevent being charged again.
- Print subscriptions: Home delivery may require a notice period for cancellation, depending on your contract. Some print plans may have minimum term agreements, meaning cancellation may not be immediate.
- Third-party subscriptions: If you subscribed via Apple, Google Play, or another platform, you must cancel through their respective system.
The Age does not typically provide prorated refunds, so once you cancel, you will retain access until the end of your billing cycle.

To cancel your The Age subscription, you may be required to provide:
- Full Name: As registered with your subscription.
