Blue Apron cancellation guide

How to Cancel a Blue Apron Subscription

Blue Apron has two separate recurring commitments. Cancelling one leaves the other billing you.

Quick answer

There are two things to cancel

Blue Apron documents Subscribe & Save (recurring deliveries) and Blue Apron+ (the paid membership) as two different things with two separate cancellation flows. If you have both, you have to cancel twice.

  • Subscribe & Save: Account → Subscribe & Save → Cancel Plan → confirm. Blue Apron states there is no cancellation fee.
  • Blue Apron+: Account → Blue Apron+ → Cancel Membership → confirm. Benefits stay active through the end of the current billing cycle.
  • Blue Apron states the Pause feature no longer exists — skipping orders or cancelling and re-enrolling are the documented alternatives.

Before you cancel

  • Check whether you have Subscribe & Save only, or Blue Apron+ as well — Blue Apron confirms you can be enrolled in both.
  • Find your cut-off time. Blue Apron says it is shown below the delivery date on the Orders page.
  • Before the cut-off, a pending charge on your statement is described as an authorization, not the final amount.
  • If you only want to miss one delivery, Blue Apron offers skipping instead, with no stated limit on how often.

When you are charged

Charge timing
Blue Apron states your payment method is charged for a Subscribe & Save order once the cut-off passes and the order has been processed.
Where the cut-off is shown
The cut-off for an order is shown below its delivery date on the Orders page. No fixed clock time is published, so it has to be read from your own account.
Pending authorization charge
A pending charge appearing before the cut-off is an authorization and will not reflect the final charge if you make further changes to the order.
Already-processed orders
An order already shown as processed or shipped cannot be cancelled.

After you cancel

  • Check the status in both the Subscribe & Save and the Blue Apron+ sections — separately.
  • Any order already processed will still ship and still be charged.
  • Blue Apron+ benefits run to the end of the current billing cycle — note when that is.
