How do I unsubscribe from a paid Skool community?

Open the community, go to Settings → Subscription → Cancel. Confirm. Your subscription stops at end of current billing period. Your access continues until then; afterwards you're removed from paying members but your account stays.

Can I unsubscribe from one Skool community without affecting others?

Yes. Each community membership is independent. Cancelling one doesn't affect any others you're in. If you're paying for three communities and want to keep two, just cancel the third. Your Skool account stays intact.

Will I lose my posts if I unsubscribe?

No. Skool doesn't delete your posts when you cancel a subscription or leave a community. Your content stays in the community for other members to see. If you delete your entire Skool account, your name is anonymized but the post content typically stays.

Can I unsubscribe via email instead of logging in?

Email notifications usually have an unsubscribe link at the bottom — clicking it stops that category of email. To cancel a paid subscription, you have to log in to Skool itself; there's no email-based cancel link for paid memberships, by design.

Why am I still getting Skool emails after unsubscribing?

Three reasons: (1) you only unsubscribed from one category, others are still on. (2) The change takes a day or two to propagate fully. (3) You're getting emails from a different community you're still in. Check Notifications settings and any community email digests.

How do I unsubscribe from a Skool community on mobile?

Open the community in the app, tap the gear icon (Settings), find Subscription, tap Cancel. Same flow as web. Mobile cancellation works the same way for paid subscriptions and community membership exits.

Can I unsubscribe but keep access for the month I paid for?

Yes — that's the default. When you cancel mid-cycle, access stays through end of current billing period. You're not refunded for the rest of the month, but you keep using the community until the next billing date that doesn't happen. After that you're removed from paid members.

Stop email notifications

Skool sends email notifications for new posts, replies, and mentions. To stop them:

1. Account Settings (top-right profile menu). 2. Notifications tab. 3. Toggle off the email categories you don't want.

This is per-account, not per-community. You can keep mobile push but turn off email if you only want one channel.

Leave a community without paying or unsubscribing

If you're in a free community and want to leave:

1. Open the community. 2. Settings (gear icon). 3. 'Leave community'.

Your membership ends immediately. Your account stays. You can rejoin later (subject to owner approval if it's invitation-only).

Deleting your Skool account entirely

If you want to remove yourself from the platform completely:

1. Account Settings. 2. Find 'Delete account' (might be near the bottom). 3. Confirm.

Before deleting, cancel any active paid memberships. Deleting your account doesn't automatically refund Stripe charges. The deletion takes a few days to fully process.

Stop leaving DMs, churn, and revenue on the table.
