How hard is it to cancel Melon?
Melon scores 76/100 (grade B) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the KR — a clearly documented cancellation policy. Cancellation is available via online (self-serve), in-app.
Melon's FAQ documents cancellation on PC web via My Info > Pass/Coupon/Cash > Cancel Pass, and in the Android app via My Info > Pass > Change/Cancel. Subscriptions purchased through Google in-app billing can only be cancelled via the Google Play Store; iPhone in-app subscriptions are cancelled through the Apple ID subscription settings. Melon distinguishes standard cancellation (service continues to the next billing date) from mid-term cancellation (stops immediately with a usage-deducted refund); full refunds are available for unused subscriptions within the policy window.

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.
