## AI overview

This Codename One blog post explains how subscriptions are canceled through PayPal recurring payments. It also warns that upgrading or resubscribing after a billing failure can create duplicate payments and advises contacting support about billing issues.

## Source excerpt

One of the things I like most about our subscription base is its solid nature. We still have a lot of subscribers in the $9 per month plan which we discontinued several years ago (it was so long ago I can't find the relevant blog post anymore). That's wonderful, it means people like our product and are with us for the long run. However, flexibility is important too. The fact that subscriptions can be canceled easily is important. Canceling subscriptions is easy although we don't have any control over that. When you sign up for a subscription you effectively define a PayPal recurring payment process associated with your account. When we get a payment we keep the account at that level.
