How hard is it to cancel Pendulum?
Pendulum scores 73/100 (grade B) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the US — a clearly documented cancellation policy. Cancellation is available via online (self-serve), phone, email.
Pendulum members can cancel at any time online via the account portal ('Manage Subscriptions') or through links in confirmation emails, as well as by phone or email. Cancellation requests must be received by the Sunday prior to the next billing date. No refund is issued if the order has already shipped; first-time customers may cancel before shipment for a full refund. Members can skip or reschedule shipments as an alternative to full cancellation.

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.
