The Cancellation Friction Index

JDate Premium subscriptions can be cancelled online via My Profile > Account Settings > Subscription > Manage Subscription (multi-step with reason-selection retention flow), or through the iOS App Store or Google Play Store for mobile purchases. No advance notice period is required; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid billing period and the account reverts to free/Basic access. All fees are explicitly non-refundable except in roughly 11 US states (including California and New York) where a 3-business-day full-refund window applies by law. Subscriptions auto-renew by default and renewal pricing is disclosed in the Terms of Use.

Evidence

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.
