❓ Why Do I See a Reactivate Button?
If you canceled your Search Atlas subscription and now see a Reactivate button, that is usually a good sign. The button appears because your subscription is no longer set to renew, so the platform offers you a way to turn it back on if you change your mind.
In most cases, seeing Reactivate means your cancellation went through. It does not mean you will be charged again.
✅ What Reactivate Means (and What It Does Not)
- It means: your plan is set to stop renewing, and you can restart it at any time.
- It does not mean: a new payment has been started or that your cancellation failed.
- Important: only click Reactivate if you want to resume your subscription. Clicking it will turn your plan back on.
🔍 How to Confirm Your Cancellation
Use these checks to be sure your subscription is canceled:
- Open your account or billing settings inside the platform.
- Look at your plan status. It should show that the plan is canceled, set to end, or not renewing, rather than active and renewing.
- Check for a renewal date. If your plan is canceled, you should not see an upcoming renewal charge scheduled. You may instead see an end date for your access.
- Check your inbox, including spam or junk folders, for a cancellation confirmation message, if one was sent to you.
- Confirm that the button on your plan says Reactivate and not Cancel. If you still see a Cancel option, your cancellation may not have been completed.
📅 What Happens After You Cancel
- Access: in most cases, you can keep using Search Atlas until the end of the billing period you already paid for.
- Billing: once your plan is canceled, you should not be charged for the next billing cycle.
- Your data: your projects and reports are generally still available while your access is active.
- Restarting: you can use the Reactivate button whenever you want to continue with your plan.

Contact our team if you notice any of the following:

- You receive a charge after your plan was shown as canceled.
- You are unsure whether you canceled the right plan or add-on, especially if you have more than one.
💡 Tips to Avoid Surprises
- Cancel before your renewal date so you are not billed for the next cycle.
- After canceling, return to your billing settings and double-check the status.
- Take a screenshot of the page showing the Reactivate button and the canceled status for your records.
- If you have multiple workspaces, plans, or add-ons, check each one separately.
