Cancel GoFundMe: Step-by-Step Instructions

How to cancel your GoFundMe account in australia and stop unwanted charges

What GoFundMe is and why australians use it

GoFundMe is a crowdfunding platform that connects people who need financial support with donors willing to contribute. You can use it to raise money for personal emergencies, medical expenses, community projects, or charitable causes. The platform accepts one-off donations and recurring monthly contributions, stores donor records, and processes payments through third-party payment systems. As an Australian user, you may encounter transaction fees (typically around 1.9% plus AUD $0.30 per donation) and separate recurring-donation fees if you opt into monthly support. GoFundMe does not charge organisers a platform fee to create or host a fundraiser, but it does apply fees to donations. The service also offers the GoFundMe Giving Guarantee, which investigates suspected fraud and returns funds to donors where misuse is confirmed.

If you are an Australian donor or fundraiser organiser, you have several cancellation options: you can deactivate your account, stop a recurring donation, close an inactive fundraiser, or request a refund. Tocancel has created this guide to walk you through each option clearly and help you understand your rights.

How GoFundMe charges work in australia

GoFundMe generates revenue by charging donors and organisers at two points. When you donate, GoFundMe deducts a percentage-based transaction fee plus a fixed amount before the funds reach the fundraiser organiser. If you choose recurring monthly support, you pay an additional recurring-donation fee on top of your monthly gift. These fees appear on your bank statement and are often the reason Australian users decide to cancel recurring donations. Understanding exactly what you are being charged makes spotting unauthorised transactions easier and strengthens your position if you need to dispute a charge with your bank or lodge a complaint with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC).

Why australians cancel GoFundMe

Cancellation reasons vary widely. You may have accidentally enabled recurring monthly donations without realising you would be charged indefinitely. You may have donated to a time-limited fundraiser that has now closed or met its goal. You may no longer wish to support a particular cause or person. You may have experienced unauthorised or fraudulent charges. Or you may be an organiser seeking to close an inactive fundraiser. Each scenario follows a different cancellation path, and understanding which applies to you makes the process faster and more confident. Tocancel helps you identify your situation and take the right action.

Your consumer rights under australian consumer law

Australian Consumer Law gives you specific protections when you donate or make purchases online, including on crowdfunding platforms.

Refunds and the australian consumer law

Under the Australian Consumer Law, enforced by the ACCC, you have the right to a refund in three key situations. First, if GoFundMe or a fundraiser organiser engaged in misleading or deceptive conduct-for example, falsely describing what funds would be used for. Second, if the service was not provided as described to you. Third, if you cancel within 14 days of your purchase (the cooling-off period), though this right does not apply to all donation types and depends on the specific circumstances. GoFundMe's own Giving Guarantee provides an alternative dispute process: if you believe a fundraiser was fraudulent, you can appeal directly to GoFundMe for a refund before escalating to regulators. If GoFundMe refuses to help or does not respond within 10 business days, you can lodge a formal complaint with the ACCC or your state's Office of Fair Trading. Tocancel recommends documenting all communications, transaction records, and the fundraiser details before filing any complaint. Your legal position is strong if you can prove the fundraiser misrepresented its purpose or if the organiser was acting fraudulently.

Chargeback rights and your bank

If GoFundMe refuses to refund an unauthorised or fraudulent charge, your bank is your strongest ally. You can contact your bank or credit card issuer and request a chargeback or transaction dispute. Your financial institution can reverse the charge if they agree it was unauthorised or if GoFundMe failed to deliver the service you paid for. This process typically takes 5-10 business days and does not cost you anything. Keep all email correspondence, transaction confirmations, and evidence of the disputed charge to support your chargeback claim. If GoFundMe's support team is slow to respond or dismissive, do not wait-contact your bank immediately rather than spending weeks in email limbo. Your bank has the authority to recover the money without GoFundMe's permission if the evidence supports you.

Your rights if you cancel

Once you cancel a recurring donation or deactivate your account, GoFundMe must stop charging you immediately. If charges continue after you have cancelled, this is a breach of Australian Consumer Law and grounds for a formal complaint. You can also request that GoFundMe delete your personal data after cancellation, though the company may retain some information for legal or fraud-prevention purposes. Tocancel emphasises that your right to cancel is absolute-you do not need GoFundMe's permission or a reason.

How to cancel recurring donations on GoFundMe

Stopping a recurring monthly donation is the quickest way to prevent ongoing charges if you no longer wish to support a fundraiser.

Step-by-step: cancel a monthly recurring donation

1. Log in to your GoFundMe account on the website or mobile app using your email and password.
2. Go to your profile by clicking your name or avatar in the top right corner of the screen.
3. Select "Donations" or "My donations" from the menu to view all active donations.
4. Find the recurring monthly donation you wish to cancel and click on it.
   • Look for a donation marked "recurring" or "monthly" with the next charge date listed.
   • If you have multiple donations, check each one carefully to ensure you cancel the correct one.
5. Click the "Cancel recurring donation" or "Stop monthly donation" button on the donation details page.
6. Confirm your cancellation when prompted. Do not click "cancel" and then exit without confirming-the cancellation will not take effect until you confirm.
7. Wait for a confirmation email from GoFundMe within 24 hours confirming your recurring donation has stopped.
8. Check your next bank statement (in approximately 30 days) to verify no further charges appear for that fundraiser.

Your recurring donation will stop immediately after confirmation, but the fundraiser organiser will still be able to see that you previously donated. Tocancel recommends keeping the confirmation email as proof of cancellation in case a charge appears on your account by mistake.

If you cannot find the cancel button

Occasionally, the cancellation option may be hidden or the interface may differ depending on your device or app version. If you cannot locate the cancel button after following the steps above, try these alternatives. First, update the GoFundMe app to the latest version via your device's app store. Second, use a desktop browser instead of the mobile app-the interface is often clearer on a larger screen. Third, contact GoFundMe support directly at support.gofundme.com and provide your donation ID and the fundraiser name; the support team can cancel your recurring donation manually within 1-2 business days. Always take a screenshot of the fundraiser page or your donation record before contacting support, as this helps the team locate your account faster.

How to deactivate your GoFundMe account

Deactivating your account hides your profile and any fundraisers you have created, though it does not permanently delete your data or prevent future charges to linked payment methods.

Step-by-step: deactivate your GoFundMe account

1. Log in to your GoFundMe account on the website (the desktop version has more options than the app).
2. Click your name or avatar in the top right corner and select "Settings" from the dropdown menu.
3. Scroll to the bottom of the Settings page until you see "Deactivate account" or "Close account".
4. Click the deactivation button and read the information carefully.
   • GoFundMe will explain what happens when you deactivate: your profile becomes hidden, fundraisers no longer accept donations, and your account can be reactivated later if you change your mind.
   • Note that deactivation does NOT delete your account permanently or remove you from GoFundMe's systems.
5. Confirm your choice when prompted. You may be asked to enter your password again for security.
6. Within 24 hours, GoFundMe will send a confirmation email to the address associated with your account.
7. If you do not receive this email, check your spam folder or contact GoFundMe support to confirm the deactivation went through.

After deactivation, your fundraisers will no longer appear in GoFundMe's search or recommendations, and donors cannot contribute to them. However, if you had a recurring donation set up as a donor (not a fundraiser), you must cancel that separately using the steps in the previous section-deactivating your account does not automatically stop recurring charges. Tocancel strongly advises cancelling any recurring donations before deactivating your account to avoid unexpected charges.

Reactivating your account later

If you deactivate your account and later change your mind, you can reactivate it by logging in with your original email and password. GoFundMe will restore your profile and fundraisers within 24 hours. This flexibility makes deactivation a good option if you are uncertain about cancelling permanently. However, if you wish to completely erase your data, you will need to request permanent account deletion rather than simple deactivation.

How to request permanent account deletion

If you want GoFundMe to permanently delete your personal data rather than simply hide your account, you can submit a data deletion request.

Step-by-step: request permanent data deletion

1. Go to the GoFundMe support centre at support.gofundme.com and search for "delete account" or "data deletion".
2. Find the article titled "Requesting account deletion" or similar and open it.
3. Follow the link to the data deletion form or email the support team at [email protected] with the subject line "Request for permanent account deletion".
4. In your email or form submission, include:
   • Your full name as it appears on your GoFundMe account.
   • The email address associated with your account.
   • A clear statement that you request permanent deletion of your personal data.
   • Your reason for deletion (optional, but helpful for the support team).
5. GoFundMe will acknowledge your request within 1-2 business days and process the deletion within 30 days, as required by Australian privacy law.
6. You will receive a final confirmation email once deletion is complete.

Permanent deletion means GoFundMe will remove your name, email, payment details, and donation history from their active systems. However, the company may retain some anonymised or aggregated data for legal compliance or fraud prevention. Keep your deletion confirmation email as proof that you initiated the process, as this is valuable if a dispute arises later. Tocancel advises requesting deletion only if you are certain you will not use GoFundMe again, as deletion is permanent and cannot be undone.

What to do if charges continue after cancellation

Despite your best efforts, sometimes charges continue after you cancel. This is frustrating, but you have clear remedies.

Step-by-step: dispute unauthorised charges

1. Check your bank statement carefully to confirm the charge came from GoFundMe (it may appear under the company name or a payment processor like Stripe or PayPal).
2. Log back into your GoFundMe account and verify that your recurring donation is no longer listed as active. Take a screenshot of the confirmation.
3. Contact GoFundMe support at support.gofundme.com within 5 business days of the unwanted charge and provide:
   • Your account email and the date you cancelled the recurring donation.
   • The date of the unwanted charge and the amount.
   • A screenshot showing the donation as cancelled in your account.
   • A clear statement that you did not authorise this charge and request an immediate refund.
4. Set a deadline: tell GoFundMe you expect a response and refund within 7 business days. If they do not respond, escalate immediately.
5. If GoFundMe refuses to refund or does not respond, contact your bank or credit card issuer and request a chargeback or dispute. Provide your bank with:
   • The GoFundMe support ticket number (if you have one).
   • Your cancellation confirmation email from GoFundMe.
   • Screenshots of your account showing the donation as inactive.
   • A statement that you cancelled the subscription and GoFundMe charged you unauthorisedly.
6. Your bank will investigate within 10 business days and reverse the charge if they determine it was unauthorised. You do not need to pay the disputed amount while the investigation is ongoing.

If the charge appears to be fraudulent (for example, a donation you did not make to a fundraiser you do not recognise), contact your bank immediately without waiting for GoFundMe to respond. Your bank's chargeback process is faster and more effective than trying to resolve it with GoFundMe alone. Tocancel emphasises that you have the absolute right to reverse unauthorised charges-do not feel pressured to accept them.

Lodging a complaint with the ACCC

If GoFundMe repeatedly refuses to refund charges or if you believe the company is engaging in misleading practices, you can lodge a formal complaint with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC). Visit www.accc.gov.au and use their "Report a scam or complaint" form. Provide copies of all emails, screenshots, and transaction records. The ACCC will investigate and may take action against GoFundMe if they find a pattern of breaches. Tocancel recommends exhausting GoFundMe's support process first, but do not delay more than 30 days-early complaints help regulators identify emerging problems.

Pricing, fees and charges explained

Understanding GoFundMe's fee structure helps you anticipate charges and spot mistakes on your bank statement.

As an Australian donor, you will most often see the transaction fee (1.9% + AUD $0.30) and potentially the recurring monthly fee (AUD $0.60) on your bank statement. These fees are deducted from your donation before the funds reach the fundraiser organiser, so if you donate AUD $50 as a one-off gift, the fundraiser receives approximately AUD $48.75 after GoFundMe's fee. If you set up a recurring monthly donation of AUD $50, you are charged AUD $50.60 each month (AUD $50 plus the recurring fee). Tocancel advises reviewing your bank statement monthly if you have active recurring donations so you can spot any unexpected charges immediately.

Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling

Cancelling GoFundMe should be straightforward, but several common missteps can leave you still paying or confused about your status.

Not confirming your cancellation

The most frequent error is clicking "cancel" and assuming the process is complete without waiting for confirmation. GoFundMe will prompt you to confirm your choice on a second screen-if you miss this step or close the browser before confirming, your cancellation will not go through and charges will continue. Always wait for the confirmation email from GoFundMe (usually within 24 hours) before considering yourself cancelled. Taking a screenshot of the confirmation message provides proof if a dispute arises later. Tocancel recommends setting a calendar reminder to check your next bank statement and verify no charges appear.

Confusing deactivation with deletion

Many users believe deactivating their account deletes all their data permanently. In fact, deactivation only hides your profile and fundraisers-your personal information remains in GoFundMe's systems, and recurring charges can still process if you do not cancel them separately. If you want permanent deletion, you must submit a separate data deletion request. Deactivation is useful if you simply want to step back from GoFundMe without erasing your account entirely, but it is not a substitute for cancelling active recurring donations.

Not checking for multiple active donations

If you have supported several fundraisers, you may have multiple recurring donations active without realising. When you log into your donation history, review every active recurring donation and cancel each one individually. Missing even one can result in an unexpected charge. Tocancel advises creating a simple list of all your active donations (fundraiser name, amount, date started) and ticking them off as you cancel each one. This prevents accidental omissions and gives you a clear record.

Waiting too long to dispute unauthorised charges

Your bank's chargeback window is usually 60 days from the date of the charge. If you wait longer than this, your bank may refuse to dispute it, leaving you unable to recover the money. If you notice an unwanted charge, contact your bank immediately rather than spending weeks trying to resolve it with GoFundMe support. The earlier you act, the better your chances of recovery. Tocancel recommends marking unauthorised charges as disputed in your bank app right away so you do not forget.

Not keeping cancellation proof

If a charge appears after you cancel and you contact your bank, your bank will ask for proof that you cancelled. Keep all confirmation emails from GoFundMe, screenshots of your account showing cancelled donations, and your bank statements. These documents are your evidence and make resolving disputes much faster. If you delete these emails or lose the screenshots, you will have a harder time proving you cancelled and may struggle to recover the money.

After you cancel: what happens next

Cancellation is just the beginning. Understanding what happens to your account and data after cancellation helps you avoid surprises.

Your account and donation history

After you cancel a recurring donation, your donation history remains visible in your account and to the fundraiser organiser (unless you also deactivate or delete your account). The fundraiser will still see that you previously supported them, and they may contact you to ask why you cancelled. If this concerns you, you can change your donation privacy settings in GoFundMe's account settings to hide your donation from public view. After deactivation, your fundraisers no longer appear in search results or recommendations, but they can still be accessed directly by URL if someone has the link. Full data deletion removes your donation history from GoFundMe's active systems, though the company may retain anonymised records for compliance purposes.

Refunds and pending payouts

If you were an organiser and you cancel your fundraiser before all funds have been transferred to you, GoFundMe will offer donors the option to receive a refund. You will retain any funds already transferred to your bank account. If you request a refund for your own donation to another fundraiser, the refund typically appears in your bank account within 5-10 business days, depending on your bank. Do not contact GoFundMe every day asking about your refund-give it at least 10 business days before following up. Tocancel advises checking your bank's "pending transactions" section, as the refund may appear there before it is fully cleared.

Your payment details and security

After cancellation, GoFundMe retains your payment details (credit card, debit card, or bank account number) in case a chargeback or dispute arises. If you requested permanent data deletion, GoFundMe must delete this information within 30 days, as required by Australian privacy law. If you only deactivated your account, your payment details remain on file. If you wish to remove your payment information without deleting your entire account, contact GoFundMe support and they can remove it manually. Do not assume your payment details are automatically deleted after cancellation-follow up if this is a concern.

Marketing emails and communications

After cancellation, you may still receive marketing or reminder emails from GoFundMe. Each email should include an "Unsubscribe" link at the bottom. Click it to stop receiving non-essential communications. You will likely continue to receive transactional emails (such as refund confirmations or customer support responses) even after unsubscribing from marketing, as these are required for your account security. If you continue to receive marketing emails after unsubscribing, contact GoFundMe support with a screenshot showing the unsubscribe link did not work, and they can manually remove you from their mailing list within 2-3 business days.

Refund options and timelines

Your refund eligibility depends on why you are cancelling and how long ago you donated.

When you can claim a refund

1. You donated in error (accidentally, or to the wrong fundraiser) and request a refund within 14 days of your donation. GoFundMe will refund the full donation amount minus any transaction fees already deducted.
2. You donated to a fundraiser later discovered to be fraudulent or misleading. GoFundMe will refund the full donation amount after investigation under the Giving Guarantee program.
3. You were charged multiple times for a single donation due to a technical error. Contact GoFundMe support with evidence (screenshot of multiple charges on the same date) and they will refund the duplicate charges.
4. A donation was made without your authorisation (someone else used your account or card). Your bank can dispute this charge, or GoFundMe will refund it if you report it directly to them.
5. You cancelled a recurring monthly donation but GoFundMe continued charging you after cancellation. This is unauthorised and grounds for a full refund of all charges after your cancellation date.

Refund timeline

GoFundMe processes refunds within 5-10 business days of approval. The refund then travels through your bank's system, which may take an additional 3-5 business days depending on your bank. In total, expect a refund to appear in your account within 10-15 business days of GoFundMe approving it. If you requested a refund more than 15 business days ago and it has not appeared, contact your bank and provide them with GoFundMe's refund approval email. Your bank can trace the refund and confirm whether it was actually sent. Tocancel advises not to re-request the refund multiple times, as this can slow the process or cause duplicate refunds.

Refunds and fees

When you request a refund, GoFundMe keeps the transaction fees and recurring donation fees you paid. For example, if you donated AUD $100 and the transaction fee was AUD $1.90, you receive AUD $98.10. This is standard practice across payment platforms and is usually outlined in GoFundMe's terms of service. If you dispute this with your bank, your bank will typically support GoFundMe's fee retention as the transaction did occur. However, if you are refunding because of fraud or GoFundMe's error, you can request that GoFundMe also refund the fees-contact support and provide evidence (such as the fundraiser being flagged as fraudulent), and they may make an exception.

When to contact GoFundMe support

You do not always need to contact GoFundMe to cancel-many cancellations are self-service. However, some situations require professional help.

Contact GoFundMe support if:

• You cannot find the cancellation button in your account after following all the steps in this guide.
• You cancelled a recurring donation but charges continue to appear on your bank statement.
• You wish to request a refund under the Giving Guarantee (fraud suspected) or because of a technical error.
• You need help deleting your account permanently or removing your payment details.
• You received an email confirming your cancellation, but your account still shows the donation as active.
• You donated to a time-limited fundraiser, the goal was reached, but funds have not been transferred to the organiser (if you are the organiser).

How to contact GoFundMe support

Email support at [email protected] or visit the support centre at support.gofundme.com. GoFundMe aims to respond within 1-2 business days but may take longer during high-volume periods. In your email, include your account email, the issue you are facing, and any supporting documents (screenshots, transaction confirmations, the fundraiser URL). Be specific and polite-support agents respond faster to clear, respectful requests. If you do not receive a response after 7 business days, send a follow-up email referencing your original ticket number. Tocancel advises keeping copies of all support correspondence for your records, as this becomes important if you need to escalate to your bank or the ACCC.

Comparison: cancellation methods at a glance

Not sure which cancellation option is right for you? This table compares the three main paths.

Most Australian users who simply want to stop unwanted charges will choose the first option: cancel a specific recurring donation. This takes only 5 minutes and allows you to keep your account if you ever decide to donate again. Tocancel recommends this as your first step-it is the fastest and most reversible option. Only choose deactivation or deletion if you are certain you will not use GoFundMe again.

Checklist: before and after cancellation

Use this checklist to ensure you complete every step of your cancellation correctly and protect yourself against future disputes.

Before you cancel

• Log into your GoFundMe account and review all active recurring donations. Note the fundraiser names, amounts, and start dates.
• Take a screenshot of your Donations page showing each active recurring donation.
• Gather your bank statements for the past 3 months to identify all charges from GoFundMe.
• Write down the cancellation date and time for your records.

During cancellation

• Follow the step-by-step instructions in this guide exactly, without skipping any screens.
• Wait for the confirmation screen and read it carefully before closing your browser.
• Screenshot the confirmation message.
• Do not click any other buttons or links between clicking "Cancel" and confirming-this can interrupt the process.

After cancellation

• Wait for the confirmation email from GoFundMe within 24 hours. If it does not arrive, check your spam folder.
• Save this confirmation email in a folder titled "GoFundMe Cancellation" for future reference.
• Check your next bank statement (approximately 30 days later) to confirm no charges appear for that fundraiser.
• If a charge appears despite cancellation, contact GoFundMe support within 5 business days with your confirmation email attached.
• If GoFundMe does not refund within 7 business days, contact your bank and request a chargeback, providing your cancellation confirmation as evidence.

Frequently asked questions about GoFundMe cancellation

This section addresses the most common questions from Australian users attempting to cancel GoFundMe or resolve billing disputes.

Will cancelling my recurring donation affect the fundraiser?

No. Cancelling your recurring monthly donation stops your future charges but does not refund past donations or remove you from the fundraiser's donor list. The fundraiser organiser will still see that you previously donated, and they may contact you. If this privacy concerns you, you can adjust your donation privacy settings in GoFundMe's account settings to hide your donation from public view. Cancelling your donation is your right and does not harm the fundraiser-they simply stop receiving your monthly support.

Can i cancel my fundraiser if it is still receiving donations?

Yes. You can deactivate or delete your fundraiser at any time, even if it is still receiving donations. GoFundMe will notify donors that the fundraiser is closed and offer them the option to receive a refund if they wish. Any funds already transferred to your bank account remain yours. However, if you close a fundraiser that is actively receiving donations and donors request refunds, you may need to cover those refunds from the money you already received.

How long does it take to get a refund after i cancel?

GoFundMe processes refunds within 5-10 business days of approving your request. The refund then appears in your bank account within an additional 3-5 business days, depending on your bank. Total time is typically 10-15 business days. If your refund has not appeared after 15 business days, contact your bank with GoFundMe's refund approval email and they can trace it.

Will i still receive emails after i cancel?

You may receive some transactional emails (such as refund confirmations or cancellation confirmations) even after cancelling, as these are needed for your account security. To stop marketing and reminder emails, click the Unsubscribe link in the footer of any email. If you continue to receive marketing emails after unsubscribing, contact GoFundMe support.

What if i cancel my account but forgot i had a recurring donation?

Cancelling or deactivating your account does not automatically stop recurring donations. If you set up a recurring monthly donation as a separate donor (not a fundraiser), you must cancel that recurring donation in your Donations section before or after deactivating your account. If charges continue after your account is deactivated, contact your bank immediately and request a chargeback. Provide your cancellation confirmation as evidence.

Can GoFundMe charge me after i delete my account?

GoFundMe should not charge you after you request permanent account deletion. However, if a charge appears, contact your bank immediately-the charge may be a duplicate or an error. Provide your account deletion confirmation email as evidence, and your bank can dispute the charge. If multiple charges appear after deletion, this may indicate fraud, and you should also report it to the ACCC.
