How hard is it to cancel Winc?
Winc scores 53/100 (grade D) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the US — a poorly documented cancellation policy. Cancellation is available via online (self-serve), phone, email.
Winc members can cancel at any time via live chat (winc.com, 7am–4pm PST daily), email ([email protected]), or phone (1-855-282-5829). California residents additionally have a self-serve cancel option in Account Settings. Members must notify Winc at least 3 days before a scheduled shipment to avoid being charged for that order; Winc Branded Membership cancellations are refunded on a pro-rata basis for unused periods, but Member Credits are non-refundable once purchased. A free 'skip a month' pause option is available anytime via the account dashboard with 48 hours' notice before the next order date.

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.
