How to cancel Framer without losing your website

To cancel Framer, open Workspace Settings → Billing, click the three-dot menu next to the site and choose Cancel Plan. The plan keeps working until the end of the current billing cycle, so you have until then to decide where the website lives next: on Framer's free plan, on your own hosting, or on another platform.

How to cancel a Framer site plan

Framer plans are attached to individual sites, so you cancel each site's plan separately. From Framer's help center:

1. Open your workspace settings.
2. Go to the Billing tab.
3. Click the three-dot menu next to the site you want to cancel.
4. Select Cancel Plan.
5. Give feedback and confirm.

The cancellation then shows in the project's settings and in the Plans tab of workspace settings. Framer also documents a route from inside the project: open the project, go to Settings, open the Plans tab and select Cancel Plan.

No Cancel Plan option means that project has no active subscription. The Plans tab in workspace settings lists your active subscriptions, so you can see which sites you're paying for.

Cancel or downgrade?

	Cancel	Downgrade to a lower plan
How	Workspace Settings → Billing, or project Settings → Plans	Dashboard → project → top-left menu → Settings → Plans → pick a plan
Unused time	No refund and no credit; benefits run to the end of the billing cycle	Converted to account credit
The credit	None	Non-refundable, applied automatically to future Framer invoices
Add-ons	Stay active to the end of the period, then end with the plan; no credit	Removed immediately if the new plan doesn't support them; unused value becomes credit

Downgrade credit only helps if you keep paying Framer for something. If you're leaving, cancel.

How to stop paying for editor seats

Framer ties editor billing to the site plans in a workspace. To stop paying for editors entirely, cancel every site plan in the workspace. Once the last one is canceled, the editor subscription ends at the close of the current billing cycle, with no charges after that.

To keep a site but pay for fewer editors, go to Workspace Settings → Members, select the person, and either change their role to Viewer (free) or click Remove from team. On Basic and Pro, the workspace owner is free; additional editors cost $20 a month and Content Editors $10 a month.

Refunds and billing after you cancel

• Renewals. Monthly and yearly plans renew automatically unless canceled before the next renewal date.
• No automatic refund. Canceling doesn't automatically qualify you for a refund, and Framer doesn't refund unused time.
• Refund window. Within 7 days of the initial purchase, or 14 days in the EU and Turkey. Request it through Framer's Contact page.
• Add-ons have their own window, counted from the add-on's purchase date. Usage-based add-ons such as bandwidth or credits can't be refunded once any part is used.
• Free domain offer. If you claimed a free domain with a yearly plan, Framer's custom-domain guide says redeeming it forfeits the option to request a refund.
• Legacy plans (bought before October 9, 2025). Canceling ends the legacy pricing: if you resubscribe later, you pay current prices.
• Enterprise. Framer says to remove the custom domain from any project you downgrade at true-up or renewal, because a project with a custom domain still counts as an active site.

How to unpublish a Framer site

Framer's help center has no article on unpublishing, but a screenshot in its reduced-motion settings article shows the switch: Site Settings → General → Danger Zone → Unpublish, labeled "Unpublish your website from all domains." Deleting the project also unpublishes the site automatically, but permanently:

1. In the Dashboard, move the project to the Archive.
2. Open the Archive folder, find the project and click Delete.
3. Confirm the deletion.

Deletion is permanent and can't be undone. A connected custom domain is not detached automatically; Framer asks you to contact support if you need help reusing it. Deleting your whole Framer account also unpublishes every site on it.

Keeping the site with FNJ (option 2 below)? Don't do this: the converted site still loads Framer's runtime, so the project must stay published.

What happens to the site when the plan ends

Framer's site plans overview says a paid plan is what lets you connect a custom domain and publish without Framer branding. Framer's free plan comes with a Framer domain, 1 GB of bandwidth and a "Made in Framer" banner on the published site.

For the full picture, see what happens if you stop paying for Framer.

Four ways to keep your website

1. Drop to Framer's free plan

The cheapest route. It fits only if a Framer subdomain and the "Made in Framer" banner are acceptable and your traffic fits in 1 GB of bandwidth. Framer's pricing page also calls the free plan "ideal for non-commercial use," a recommendation rather than a rule in its terms. You can keep designing in Framer and upgrade again later. For a business site on its own domain, this isn't a real option.

2. Convert it with FNJ and host it yourself

FNJ converts a published Framer site, from its public URL, into a Next.js project (pages split into named React components such as Hero.tsx and Pricing.tsx, taken from your Framer section names), static HTML, or an Astro project. It doesn't need access to your Framer project. Images are copied into the export as WebP, and an SEO pass runs on the output.

One thing to understand first: every FNJ output keeps Framer's runtime, which still loads from Framer's CDN along with your fonts. That's why animations and interactions behave exactly as they did on Framer, and it's why the Framer project should stay published after you convert. FNJ lets you drop the Framer site plan, not every dependency on Framer.

So the order matters:

1. Convert while the site is live. Paste the published URL into FNJ and choose Next.js, HTML or Astro.
2. Deploy. One click to Cloudflare Pages or Vercel, or download the files and host them anywhere. For a business site, note that Vercel's free Hobby plan is for personal, non-commercial use only. Hosts are compared in Framer hosting options.
3. Repoint your forms. Framer's built-in form backend stays with Framer, so connect your forms to a service such as Formspree or Tally.
4. Move the domain. At your DNS provider, replace Framer's records (A records 31.43.160.6 and 31.43.161.6, and a www CNAME to sites.framer.app) with your new host's. Framer notes DNS changes can take up to 48 hours to propagate worldwide.
5. Cancel the site plan, don't delete the project. Once the new host serves your domain, cancel the site plan, but keep the project and leave it published on Framer's free plan so the runtime and fonts keep loading.

The trade-offs:

• Password-protected pages can't be converted, because FNJ reads public URLs only.
• The converted site keeps loading Framer's runtime and fonts from Framer's CDN, so it depends on the Framer project staying published.
• FNJ is paid; see pricing. The full walkthrough is in how to self-host a Framer site.

3. Use a marketplace export plugin

Framer has no built-in export or download feature; one help article says it "does not offer HTML export for self-hosting," although its data-portability article says a site's published files can be downloaded and moved to any host, without naming a feature that does it. Third-party plugins on Framer's marketplace fill that gap. Plugins run inside the Framer editor, so you open your project in Framer to use one.

• Full Site Export (by stephen jan lovino) offers a static copy, the same copy inside a Next.js project, or pages rebuilt as React components. Its listing says the static copy still renders with the network blocked, with images, fonts, video and CMS data stored locally, and that the rebuilt React version is close to the original but not pixel-identical. After a small free allowance it needs a paid license.
• Framer to Code (by valorsic studio) packages the published site's pages, assets, CSS, JavaScript and fonts into a ZIP, and rewrites links and asset paths so they work outside Framer.

Both work from the published site, so run them before your plan ends. They're third-party tools with their own terms; test the export on your host before you cancel. More options: the best Framer export tools.

4. Rebuild it on another platform

The most work, and the only route certain to leave nothing running on Framer. It makes sense if you were planning a redesign anyway. Expect to recreate layouts, interactions and CMS structure by hand. Start with Framer alternatives, and keep the Framer plan until the new site is live on your domain.

Pre-cancel checklist

Check	What to do
Domain and DNS	Confirm who your registrar is and save your current DNS records. A domain claimed through Framer's yearly-plan offer is managed through Hover and renews at the standard rate.
Forms	Framer's native forms send submissions to email, Google Sheets or webhooks. List every form and where it posts, then repoint each one.
CMS content	Export collections to CSV or JSON with a CMS plugin, so you have the raw content outside Framer.
Analytics	Framer Analytics shows 30 days of history on Basic and 90 on Pro. Save what you need and add an analytics tool to the new site before switching DNS.
Redirects	Copy the rules in Site Settings → Hosting → Redirects and recreate them on the new host.
Billing dates	Note when the current cycle ends; that's your deadline for the domain move. Remove editors and add-ons you no longer need.
Protected pages	FNJ can't convert password-protected pages. Plan to rebuild them or make them public first.

Frequently asked questions

How do I cancel my Framer subscription?

Open Workspace Settings, go to the Billing tab, click the three-dot menu next to the site and select Cancel Plan, then confirm. You can also cancel from the project's Settings → Plans tab.

Does Framer give a refund when I cancel?

Not automatically. Framer doesn't refund unused time, but you can request a refund within 7 days of the initial purchase, or within 14 days if you live in the EU or Turkey.

Will my Framer site go offline as soon as I cancel?

No. Your plan's benefits stay active until the end of the current billing cycle, so use that time to move your domain or set up other hosting.

How do I unpublish a Framer site?

Use the Unpublish button in Site Settings → General → Danger Zone, which a screenshot in Framer's help center labels "Unpublish your website from all domains." Deleting the project (move it to the Archive, then delete it from the Archive folder) also unpublishes it, but deletion is permanent and a connected custom domain isn't detached automatically.

How do I stop paying for Framer editors?

Change editors to Viewers or remove them under Workspace Settings → Members. To end editor billing completely, cancel every site plan in the workspace; the editor subscription then ends at the end of that billing cycle.

Can I export my Framer site before canceling?

Framer has no built-in export or download feature, although its data-portability article says published files can be moved to any host; marketplace plugins and converters such as FNJ can copy the published site. With FNJ, keep the Framer project published afterwards, because the converted site still loads Framer's runtime and fonts.
