Cancel subscriptions
The Cleverbridge platform supports subscription cancellation, reactivation, and customer winback scenarios. The components of the Cleverbridge platform that support these functions, along with the relevant use cases that they support, are identified below.
This article is intended for Cleverbridge business clients. If you are a customer looking to cancel a subscription managed by Cleverbridge, please check this article for step-by-step instructions.
Subscription API
If the subscription includes multiple subscription items, any combination of them (including all) can be deactivated with a single API call using the DeactivateSubscriptionItems API endpoint. The subscription status doesn’t change until all items are deactivated.
For more information on specific cancellation cases, see the Cancel Subscriptions section.
Commerce Assistant
The subscription items must be deactivated individually. If the subscription includes multiple subscription items, the remaining items are still active. If the entire subscription must be placed on hold, then each item must be individually deactivated. The subscription status doesn’t change until all items are deactivated.
