Subscriptions renew automatically each month. You can cancel at any time and your plan stays active until the end of the billing period.

    Go to Settings → "Plan"

    Scroll to the bottom of the Plan tab.

Billing management (Starter & Pro)

If you're on a paid plan, the Plan tab in Settings shows a Billing card with your subscription details.

    The Billing card shows your subscription status (active, past due, cancelled), current billing period, and renewal or cancellation date.

    • View billing history

The subscription management page is built-in. Your payment details are never stored by FridgeFlow — they're handled securely by PayMongo.

Exporting your data

You can download a copy of your inventory as a CSV file at any time. This is useful for backups or for importing into another tool.
