Simple Steps to Cancel Your Albert Genius Subscription

There are three ways to cancel your Albert Genius membership. Pick the one that works best for you.

Option 1: Cancel inside the Albert app

This is the quickest way. Open the Albert app and tap the profile icon in the top corner. Go to Settings, then scroll down to find the Albert Genius section. Tap Cancel Genius and confirm the prompts. After that, you will receive a confirmation that your membership has been canceled.

Option 2: Cancel through your phone’s app store

If you signed up through Apple or Google, cancel your Albert subscription directly with those platforms.

On iPhone: Go to Settings → your name → Subscriptions. Find Albert in the list and tap Cancel Subscription.

On Android: Open the Google Play Store, tap your profile photo, then go to Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions. Find Albert and tap Cancel.

Option 3: Email Albert support

You can also send an email to Albert’s support team at hello@albert.com. Include your full name, the email address tied to your account, and a clear request to cancel your subscription. Keep the reply — it’s your proof that you asked to unsubscribe.

How Albert Genius Charges Usually Appear on Your Bank Statement

Albert Genius uses a pay-what-you-feel pricing model, where you choose your own monthly amount between $6 and $16 when you sign up – there are no fixed tiers. On your bank statement, the charge will typically show up as ALBERT GENIUS or ALBERT.COM. Some users also see it listed simply as ALBERT followed by a short reference number.

If you’re unsure whether you’re being charged, check your bank or card statement for any of those names. The charge usually hits on the same date each month — whatever day you originally signed up.

What to Do If Albert Keeps Charging You

But if you did cancel your Albert account and continue seeing charges hit, here’s what to do:

First, ensure that you really canceled. In some cases, the process appears complete but did not go fully through. Log back into the app and check that your membership status is listed as inactive.

If you canceled, and the charges are still running, e-mail Albert support directly at hello@albert.com, and request a refund by citing your cancellation date.

Still no luck? Call your bank or card provider, ask them to block future charges from Albert and dispute any charges that came after your cancellation date – and start tracking your expenses to catch anything similar before it becomes a problem. Your bank is required to investigate these claims and can issue a chargeback if Albert can’t prove the charges were valid.

What Happens After Cancellation

Once you successfully cancel your Albert Genius subscription, you will typically retain access to the Genius features until the end of your current billing cycle. After that date, your account will revert to the basic version of Albert. It is important to note that canceling your subscription does not automatically close your Albert cash account or withdraw your funds. If you have a balance in your Albert “Savings” or “Instant” accounts, you must manually transfer those funds back to your linked external bank account before fully closing the app to ensure your money is accessible. 

Reasons to Choose PocketGuard for Managing All Your Bills

Canceling one subscription is easy enough. But most people have five, ten, or even more recurring charges they’ve forgotten about — streaming services, apps, free trials that quietly became paid plans. If you’re dealing with multiple ones at once, check our guide on how to cancel subscriptions.

PocketGuard’s subscription tracking feature solves this by pulling all your bills into one place. You can see every recurring charge at a glance, spot ones you no longer use, and take action right from the app. No more digging through bank statements line by line.

It’s a simple way to stop paying for things you don’t use anymore – and to make sure a situation like the Albert charge doesn’t sneak up on you again.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get a refund if I forgot to cancel my Albert trial?

Albert generally maintains a non-refundable policy for subscription fees. However, if you were charged immediately after a trial ended and haven’t used the Genius services since, you can contact support@albert.com to request a one-time courtesy refund. Success often depends on how quickly you reach out after the charge occurs.

Does deleting the Albert app cancel my membership?

No. This is a common misconception that leads to unwanted charges. Deleting the app from your phone only removes the interface; Albert’s servers will continue to process your monthly subscription fee until you officially cancel through the settings menu or your phone’s subscription manager.

What is the minimum cost for Albert Genius in 2026?

Albert operates on a “pay-what-you-think-is-fair” model, but there is a required minimum to access Genius features. Currently, this minimum is typically $6 per month. If you try to set it lower, you may lose access to certain automated features or the “Instant” advance service.

How do I know if my cancellation was successful?

After canceling in the app, you should receive a confirmation email. Additionally, you can verify your status by going to Settings > Help > Help Center in the app; if the subscription is inactive, it will usually invite you to “Renew” or “Upgrade” rather than showing a “Manage Subscription” option.

Will canceling Genius affect my Albert Instant limit?

Yes. Access to Albert Instant (the cash advance feature) is a primary benefit of the Genius subscription. If you cancel your membership, you will likely lose the ability to take out new advances, and you will still be responsible for paying back any outstanding advances according to your original repayment schedule.
