Design Smarter & Save
The 'Team Up' Discount (The #1 Hack)
If you have even one other person you work with, switch to a 'Canva for Teams' plan instead of paying for two individual Pro accounts. The cost per person is significantly lower.
Get it Free via 'Canva for Nonprofits' or 'Canva for Education'
If you are part of a registered nonprofit organization or an educational institution, you are likely eligible for a free Canva for Teams account with all the Pro features. Check their eligibility requirements before you pay.
The Annual Subscription Savings
If you are a consistent user, paying for the annual plan is substantially cheaper than the monthly renewal rate. It can save you the equivalent of 2-3 months' cost over the year.
Pre-Cancellation Safety Checklist
You Will NOT Lose Your Designs
CRITICAL: Your existing designs are safe and will NOT be deleted. However, any design that uses Pro features (like Pro fonts or images) will have a watermark. You must pay to export a clean version of those specific designs after you cancel.
Download Your Pro-Feature Designs First
VERY IMPORTANT: Before you cancel, go through your most important designs and download high-quality PDF or JPG versions of any that use Pro elements. This ensures you have a clean copy forever.
You Lose Your Brand Kit
Your Brand Kit, including your logos, custom fonts, and color palettes, is a Pro-only feature. It will be locked after you cancel. Ensure you have these assets saved locally on your computer.
Your Team Members Will Be Downgraded
If you are the admin of a team plan, cancelling will revert all team members to a free account. They will lose access to shared Pro templates and folders. Notify them before making the change.
