Growth Suite: What happens to my Stripe subscriptions if I downgrade or cancel my Growth Suite plan?

If you’re downgrading or cancelling a Growth Suite plan and you currently have active or pending client subscriptions in Stripe, we’ll ask you to review them and confirm your options before completing the downgrade or cancellation process.

In this article, we’ll go over the options, as well as what to expect, for each subscription type (active and pending).

Client Subscription Review

When you start the downgrade or cancellation process for your Growth Suite plan, you’ll be directed to a page that lists all your current Stripe subscriptions so you can review them and decide how you’d like to proceed.

At the top of the page, you’ll see the total number of active and pending subscriptions there are in your account (as shown in the image below).

Active Client Subscriptions

First, we’ll ask if you’d like to cancel or continue all your active subscriptions within Stripe.

If you select:

Yes, keep all my active client subscriptions running in Stripe:

• Your clients will continue to be billed and charged by Stripe according to their set cadences, but they will no longer receive invoice communication through Growth Suite.
• Flywheel will no longer be associated with your client invoicing and all future questions and troubleshooting should be handled directly within Stripe.
• You can set up Stripe customer emails to continue invoice communication through Stripe.

If you select:

No, cancel all my active client subscriptions in Stripe for me:

• All active client subscriptions will be cancelled at the end of their respective billing cycles in both Growth Suite and Stripe, without client notification.
• Your clients will no longer be billed or charged after their current billing cycle ends.
• You will still be able to edit subscription details in Stripe prior to their cancellation.

Pending Client Subscriptions

Next, you’ll see a list of your pending Stripe subscriptions.

All pending subscriptions will be immediately and automatically cancelled within Stripe upon your Growth Suite downgrade or cancellation.
