How to cancel keeper password manager in new zealand: step-by-step guide and your rights

What keeper is and why you might want to cancel

Keeper is a password manager and secure vault service designed to store your passwords, files, and sensitive data while syncing them safely across your devices. If you've been using Keeper but no longer need the service, you have the right to cancel-and Stopee is here to walk you through exactly how to do it.

How keeper works

Keeper offers subscription plans for individuals and families, with optional add-ons for breach monitoring and secure file storage. You access your vault across iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac, Windows, and web browsers. The service emphasizes encryption and emergency access features so trusted contacts can reach your passwords if needed.

Why you might cancel keeper

Common reasons include switching to a different password manager, finding the cost no longer fits your budget, or realizing you don't need all the features. Whatever your reason, cancelling should be straightforward-and Stopee ensures you understand every step and your rights under New Zealand law.

Your consumer rights under new zealand law

Before you cancel, understand what New Zealand consumer protection law gives you.

Consumer guarantees act protections

Under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993, you have the right to receive services that are of acceptable quality and fit for purpose. If Keeper fails to provide secure password storage or deliberately misrepresents its features, you may have grounds to request a refund or compensation-even if Keeper's own terms claim subscriptions are non-refundable.

Additionally, if Keeper uses unfair contract terms or misleading conduct to lock you in, the Fair Trading Act 1986 may allow you to challenge those terms and recover fees paid.

Your right to cancel and what "cancellation" means

You always have the right to stop paying for a subscription. Cancelling Keeper stops automatic renewal charges from your next billing date. In most cases, you keep access to your account until the end of your current paid period-but the rules vary depending on whether you subscribed through Apple App Store, Google Play, or directly with Keeper.

How to cancel keeper: methods by subscription platform

Where you bought your Keeper subscription determines exactly how you cancel. Follow the steps for your platform below.

Cancel keeper if you subscribed through apple app store

If you buy or renew Keeper on your iPhone or iPad through the App Store, Apple manages your subscription and billing. You cannot cancel inside the Keeper app or on Keeper's website.

1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
   • Tap your name at the top of the screen.
   • Select Subscriptions.
2. Find Keeper in your list of active subscriptions.
   • Tap Keeper to open its subscription details.
3. Tap Cancel Subscription (or the red cancel button).
   • Confirm the cancellation when prompted.
4. Check your email for Apple's cancellation confirmation.
   • Save this email-it proves you cancelled on a specific date.

Pro tip: Apple processes cancellations immediately, but your access continues until the end of your current billing cycle. You will not be charged again after you cancel.

Warning: Do not try to cancel Keeper inside the Keeper app itself. Apple handles all subscription and refund requests through Settings, not through the password manager.

Cancel keeper if you subscribed through google play

Google Play manages Keeper subscriptions purchased on Android devices. Like Apple, Google handles all cancellations and refunds-not Keeper directly.

1. Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device.
   • Tap your profile icon in the top right corner.
2. Select Payments and subscriptions.
   • Tap Subscriptions.
3. Find and tap Keeper.
   • Review the subscription details and next billing date.
4. Tap Cancel subscription.
   • Follow the on-screen prompts to confirm.
5. Google will send you a cancellation confirmation email.
   • Check your inbox and keep this email as proof.

Pro tip: Google Play cancellations take effect on your next renewal date. You keep access to Keeper until then, and you will not be charged further.

Warning: Uninstalling the Keeper app from your Android device does not cancel your subscription. You must cancel through Google Play settings.

Cancel keeper if you subscribed directly with keeper

If you purchased Keeper directly from their website (keeper.app) or by contacting Keeper support, you need to send Keeper a written cancellation notice. Keeper does not offer an in-app or website "cancel now" button for direct subscribers.

1. Check Keeper's terms and conditions for the correct contact method.
   • Visit keeper.app/terms-conditions to confirm current contact details.
   • Keeper typically accepts cancellation notices by email or postal mail.
2. Compose a clear cancellation email or letter.
   • Include your full name, email address, and account details.
   • State "I request immediate cancellation of my Keeper subscription effective [today's date]".
   • Keep the message brief and unambiguous.
3. Send your notice to Keeper's official contact address.
   • Email: use the support email listed in their terms (verify it is genuine).
   • Post: send to Keeper Limited, 9429033056449 (NZBN reference), or use the address in their terms.
4. Request a written confirmation of cancellation.
   • Ask Keeper to reply confirming the date they received your notice and when cancellation takes effect.
   • Save all correspondence.
5. Check your bank or credit card statement to verify no further charges appear.
   • Allow up to one billing cycle after cancellation to confirm.

Pro tip: Send your cancellation notice at least 5 days before your next billing date. This gives Keeper time to process your request and prevents an unwanted charge.

Warning: Keeper does not offer automatic self-service cancellation on their website for direct subscribers. If Keeper's support team is slow to respond, Stopee recommends escalating to your bank or credit card provider to dispute any charges made after your cancellation request.

What happens to your data and access after you cancel

Cancelling your Keeper subscription is not the same as deleting your account-and this distinction matters.

Your access during and after the paid period

When you cancel, you normally keep full access to Keeper until the end of your current paid billing period. After that date, your account moves to free access (if Keeper offers a free tier) or you lose access entirely, depending on Keeper's policy.

Your passwords and vault data remain in your Keeper account unless you actively delete them. You can log back in and retrieve or export your passwords even after your paid subscription ends-provided you remember your master password.

Your passwords and sensitive data

Keeper does not automatically delete your saved passwords, files, or vault contents when you cancel. If you want your data permanently removed, you must request account deletion separately or delete the data manually before your account access is revoked.

Pro tip: Before you cancel, export or save a backup of your passwords. Open your Keeper vault, use the export function (if available), and save a secure copy to your device or another password manager. This prevents accidental data loss.

Keeper pricing in new zealand and your subscription options

Understanding what you pay for helps you decide whether cancellation is right for you.

Current keeper plans and costs in NZD

Prices below reflect recent Apple App Store listings in New Zealand and may differ from Keeper's website or other platforms. Pricing changes frequently, so confirm current rates directly with Keeper.

Note: In-app prices on the App Store may not match web prices, and Keeper's website may not display NZD amounts. Always check the platform where you subscribed for the price you actually paid.

Will you get a refund when you cancel keeper?

This is the question that matters most to many users, and the answer depends on your specific situation.

Keeper's stated refund policy

Keeper typically treats subscriptions as prepaid and non-refundable. If you cancel mid-year, Keeper generally does not prorate or reimburse unused months. This means if you paid for a full year in January and cancel in May, Keeper keeps the entire annual fee.

Your legal right to a refund under new zealand law

However, Keeper's non-refund policy does not override New Zealand consumer law. Under the Consumer Guarantees Act, you may have the right to a refund if:

• Keeper fails to provide the service as described (e.g., persistent password sync failures or security breaches).
• Keeper uses unfair or misleading contract terms that hide cancellation difficulty or costs.
• You cancelled within 14 days of purchase and Keeper was supplied at your request (some statutory rights apply).

Pro tip: If Keeper's service is faulty or misleading, do not simply accept their non-refund stance. Contact Stopee or the Commerce Commission if Keeper refuses to refund you despite a legitimate complaint.

Refunds from apple app store and google play

If you subscribed through Apple or Google, these platforms have their own refund windows. Apple typically allows refunds within 14 days of purchase; Google Play offers up to 48 hours. If you cancel outside these windows, neither Apple nor Google will refund Keeper's charges unless Keeper itself agrees.

Common mistakes people make when cancelling keeper

Cancelling a password manager is stressful-you worry about losing access to your passwords. Here are the pitfalls to avoid so you cancel cleanly and keep your data safe.

Mistake 1: deleting the app instead of cancelling the subscription

Simply deleting the Keeper app from your phone does not cancel your subscription. Your credit card will still be charged on your next renewal date. Always cancel through Settings (Apple) or Google Play before deleting the app.

Mistake 2: not saving your passwords before you cancel

Once your paid subscription ends, access to your Keeper vault may become limited or disappear. If you need your passwords after cancellation, you must export them beforehand. Use Keeper's export feature or manually copy passwords to a new manager.

Mistake 3: failing to request written confirmation from keeper

If you cancel via direct contact with Keeper, always ask for written confirmation. Without proof of your cancellation request and Keeper's acknowledgment, you cannot dispute a charge if Keeper claims they never received your notice. Email is best because it creates a timestamped record.

Mistake 4: not checking your bank statement after cancellation

Confirm that no further Keeper charges appear on your account. If an unexpected charge occurs after cancellation, contact your bank immediately to dispute it-and notify Keeper in writing that you cancelled and should not have been charged.

Timeline and what to expect after you cancel

Here is what happens step by step after you cancel Keeper, depending on your subscription method.

Apple app store cancellations

Cancellation is effective immediately. You keep access to Keeper until your current renewal date, and you receive a confirmation email from Apple. No further charges will appear on your invoice.

Google play cancellations

Cancellation takes effect on your next renewal date. You retain Keeper access until then. Google sends a confirmation email, and your card will not be charged again.

Direct keeper cancellations

Cancellation typically becomes effective one business day after Keeper receives your written notice. Monitor your email for Keeper's confirmation. If you do not hear back within 48 hours, follow up with another email or escalate to your bank.

Checklist: cancelling keeper safely and protecting your data

Use this checklist to ensure you cancel Keeper completely and securely.

• Export or back up your passwords from Keeper before cancelling.
• Note the exact date of your next billing cycle (check your email or subscription settings).
• Choose your cancellation method: Apple Settings, Google Play, or direct contact with Keeper.
• Send or submit your cancellation request at least 5 days before your renewal date.
• Request and save written confirmation of your cancellation.
• Delete the Keeper app from all devices (only after cancelling the subscription).
• Check your bank statement 1 week and 1 month after cancellation to confirm no charges.
• If an unexpected charge appears, dispute it immediately with your bank.
• Consider switching to an alternative password manager before you lose Keeper access.
