General Information

Blinkist Notice Period & Conditions

Blinkist offers both monthly and annual subscription models. When you cancel your subscription, it does not end immediately. Instead, the cancellation takes effect at the conclusion of your current billing period. This means you’ll continue to have access to Blinkist until the term you’ve already paid for expires.

For instance, if you're on a monthly plan and you cancel on the 15th day, your subscription will remain active until the end of that monthly cycle. Annual plan users follow the same logic — the service continues until the last day of the paid period. Blinkist does not charge any additional fees for cancelling, nor are there penalties involved.

Keep in mind that subscriptions started via third-party services, such as the Apple App Store or Google Play, may have platform-specific rules. These can include different cancellation windows, auto-renewal conditions, or refund policies.

What Information Does Blinkist Need?

To process a cancellation successfully, Blinkist typically requires you to access your account through the platform you used to subscribe. This means using your login credentials on Blinkist’s web platform or mobile app.

If you need to contact support, providing the email address used for registration is essential. In some cases, customer service may request proof of purchase, such as a payment receipt or transaction ID. This helps confirm ownership and ensures the correct account is being modified. The more details you can offer up front, the faster they’ll be able to assist you.

When using app stores to cancel, those platforms already have your payment details, and Blinkist will not request further data directly. All actions are handled through your device's account management settings.

What Happens After I Cancel My Blinkist Subscription?

Once you've completed the cancellation steps, your subscription will remain active until the paid period ends. This means you won’t lose immediate access to book summaries, audio content, or any features included in your plan. However, once the term ends, you will no longer be able to view or listen to any content unless you renew or resubscribe.

Any preferences, reading history, or downloads you’ve made during your subscription may still be accessible if you decide to return. Blinkist stores basic user data to ensure continuity in case you rejoin. If you'd like all personal data removed after cancellation, you can request a complete account deletion.

Can I Also Contact Blinkist Directly?

Yes, Blinkist offers multiple ways to reach out for help. You can use the official help center on their website to find articles, submit a support request, or get guidance on issues related to your account. The support team generally replies via email and is known for offering help within a few business days.

If the app or web interface is not responding or if your cancellation isn’t showing up, reaching out to the Blinkist team directly can resolve matters quickly. Be sure to check your spam or promotions folder for replies if you don’t see one in your inbox.

Can I Revoke My Subscription Cancellation?

Yes, it is possible to undo your cancellation as long as your billing cycle is still active. Within that period, you can go back into your account settings and opt to continue your subscription without any interruption.

However, if the cycle ends before you act, you’ll have to start a new subscription plan from scratch. In this case, Blinkist will treat it as a new user registration, though your previous reading history may still be available after you log in again.

For users who canceled via app stores, you’ll need to reactivate the plan through that platform’s subscription management area.

How Do I Check my Blinkist Subscription?

You can verify the status of your subscription by logging into your Blinkist account. Go to your account settings and look under “Manage Subscription.” This section shows your current plan, billing dates, and renewal options.

If you signed up through the Apple App Store or Google Play, open the settings in your Apple ID or Google account, then check the "Subscriptions" tab. This displays all active or expired subscriptions linked to your account.

Checking your plan status helps you confirm whether your cancellation was successful. If the subscription still shows as “active,” you may need to repeat the process or reach out for clarification.
