How hard is it to cancel Discord Nitro?
Discord Nitro scores 82/100 (grade B) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the US — a clearly documented cancellation policy. Cancellation is available via online (self-serve), in-app.
Discord Nitro can be cancelled online via the desktop/browser app or mobile app (in User Settings under the Nitro banner), or through Apple iOS/Google Play subscription settings if purchased on mobile; cancellation via email support is available if account access is lost. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period — perks remain active until that date. Refunds are available only within 5 days of the initial purchase, are reviewed case-by-case at Discord's sole discretion, and are limited to a one-time exception per subscription category (prior refund = ineligible). No proration is offered for mid-cycle cancellations; there is no subscription pause option.

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.
