How hard is it to cancel Butternut Box?
Butternut Box scores 87/100 (grade A) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the GB — among the most clearly documented cancellation policies we've scored. Cancellation is available via online (self-serve).
Butternut Box lets customers stop their subscription fully online: log in, open the profile icon, choose Account details and click the pause subscription button, complete an exit survey, then click Stop my subscription. The help centre states pausing is the same as cancelling and there is no cancellation fee. Cancelling before the next box's cut-off avoids that charge; after the cut-off the next box is still charged and delivered. Once a box has been charged and dispatched the funds cannot be returned. The account is retained so customers can order ad-hoc boxes.

Scope & fairness
This is the Documented-Policy tier: it measures how clearly the cancellation policy is published (cited, dated facts), not the behavioural experience of cancelling (Verified-Flow audit pending). Every company is scored on the same five dimensions with the same published weights — scores cannot be bought or removed. It is opinion grounded in disclosed facts, and not legal advice.
