There are two possible routes, and using the wrong one is why people cancel Strava and still get charged. Check which applies to you first.
This is the step people skip. Strava can be billed either by Apple (if you subscribed inside an iPhone or iPad app) or by Strava directly (if you signed up on their website). Only the biller can cancel it.
To check: open Settings → your name → Subscriptions on your iPhone. If Strava appears there, Apple bills you — use route A. If it does not, use route B.
Go straight to the Strava cancellation page →
Worth knowing: If you subscribed in the iOS app, cancel through iPhone Settings — Strava will tell you so. Note the renewal date: annual subscribers cancelling mid-term keep access to the end and get no partial refund.
You keep recording activities on the free tier. You lose segment leaderboards, route planning, and detailed analysis. All past activity data stays.
Always confirm it worked. Look for a cancellation email, and re-open the billing page to check the status reads cancelled or "ends on [date]". Then set a calendar reminder for the day after the period ends and check your card statement. A surprising number of cancellations do not take on the first attempt.
Most services have a cheaper tier that people never look at, and several offer a pause instead of a cancellation. If you use Strava occasionally rather than never, a lower plan or a temporary pause usually beats cancelling and resubscribing at a higher price later.
Recurra keeps your remaining subscriptions in one place and reminds you before each renewal — so the next one does not catch you out. No bank login, no account.
