Overskill Games billing, cancel, and the unsubscribe button

Joining the Overskill Games challenge does not charge you right away, and if there's no card on your account nothing will be billed at all. Here's exactly when billing happens, how to stop it, and why you may not see an "unsubscribe" button — because there may be nothing to unsubscribe from yet.

If you joined the Overskill Games challenge and want to cancel, stop a charge, or find an unsubscribe button, read this first — most of the time there's nothing you need to do, and this explains why.

The short version

• Joining the challenge does not charge you immediately. Signing up and getting your starter/welcome credits is free.
• If there's no payment method on your account, you will not be billed — a charge can't go through without a card on file.
• If you never added a card, there is no subscription to cancel and nothing to refund. You can simply not continue, and nothing will happen.

So if you're looking for a hidden cancel or unsubscribe button and can't find one, it's very often because there's nothing active to cancel yet — not because it's hidden.

When does billing actually happen?

The Overskill Games challenge is a promotional event with its own start date. Any recurring or event billing tied to it happens on the event's billing date, not the moment you sign up — and only if you've added a payment method. Until that date, and unless you've entered card details, your account sits on free welcome credits.

If you want to know your exact status, the fastest answer is: do you have a card on file?

• No card on file → you can't be charged. Nothing to cancel.
• Card on file / active paid plan → see How to cancel below.

I paid an hour ago — did I?

Sometimes signing up feels like a purchase even when no money moved — you entered details, saw a confirmation screen, and got credits. That's usually the free signup + welcome credits, not a charge. If you want to be sure, just ask support to check your account; we can confirm in seconds whether any charge exists. If there's no charge, there's nothing to refund and you're free to walk away.

How to cancel (if you DO have an active paid plan)

If you have added a card and started a paid plan, you can cancel any time — cancelling stops future renewals, and you keep access until the end of the period you already paid for. You don't have to hunt for a button:

• Just ask support to cancel for you. Reply in the help chat or email support and we'll stop any upcoming billing on your account directly.
• We can also fully delete your account if you'd prefer to remove it entirely — just ask.

Important: unsubscribe button for YOUR account vs. for apps you build

This one trips people up, so let's be clear:

• If you asked where is the unsubscribe button?, you almost certainly mean cancelling your own Overskill Games / account billing. For that, use the steps above (or just ask support) — it's not something you have to find buried in a menu.
• A separate thing exists called a Manage subscription / cancel button inside apps you build — that's a feature you can add so your own customers can manage subscriptions to your app. That is not how you cancel your own Overskill account, and if support ever points you there for cancelling your own plan, that's a mistake — tell us and we'll handle your cancellation directly.

The bottom line

1. Joining the challenge is free and doesn't charge you up front.
2. No card on file = no charge = nothing to cancel or refund.
3. If you do have a paid plan, we'll cancel it for you — just ask; no hidden button required.
4. Want your account deleted entirely? Ask, and we'll take care of it.

If you're unsure what state your account is in, reply and ask us to check — we'll tell you plainly whether any charge exists and what (if anything) needs to happen.
