Do I need to cancel my Avast free trial?
If you entered payment card details before starting a free trial, you need to cancel the trial subscription before it ends if you do not want the paid subscription to start and be charged for its first term. If you do not cancel the trial subscription, the paid subscription starts and the first term is charged on the last day of your trial.
Follow the instructions for canceling your Avast subscription, which also applies to Avast trial subscriptions.
If you did not enter payment card details before starting a free trial, it is not necessary to cancel the free trial.

If your subscription purchase was processed by Avast, your subscription renewal can be canceled via your Avast Account.
If your subscription purchase was processed by a different authorized eCommerce partner (such as Allsoft, Nexway, or Cleverbridge), you need to use an alternative cancellation method.
To verify which authorized eCommerce partner processed your subscription purchase, check the order confirmation email that you received after purchase, or your debit/credit card statement. For more information, refer to the following article:
