How hard is it to cancel ZenBusiness?
ZenBusiness scores 67/100 (grade C) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the US — a partially documented cancellation policy with notable gaps. Cancellation is available via online (self-serve), phone, live chat, email.
Cancellation method depends on state and service type. Self-serve dashboard cancellation (Account Settings > Subscriptions > Cancel) is available only for customers in CA, CO, DE, HI, IL, NY, TN, and DC. Customers in all other US states must contact support by phone ((844) 493-6249), live chat, or contact form. Registered Agent and ZenBusiness Banking services always require contacting support regardless of state. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period; access continues through the paid period. Refunds: 60-day money-back guarantee on formation plans (state filing fees non-refundable); annual subscriptions refundable in full within 30 days of purchase; monthly subscriptions receive no prorated refund. Registered Agent refundable within 30 days if not yet appointed with state. Domain names non-refundable once registered.

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.
