How to Cancel BadoinkVR

Before anything else, answer one question: did you subscribe to BadoinkVR on the website, or inside your headset? If it was inside the headset, the store holds the subscription and nothing you do on the website will stop it. That single distinction accounts for most failed VR cancellations. Here is how to handle both.

Site subscription or store subscription?

Cancel via the billing provider on the membership, or the headset store if that is where you subscribed.

Reading the charge on your statement

A processor descriptor, or the store name for in-store subscriptions.

Do this before cancelling rather than after. The descriptor — the text next to the amount — names whoever actually took the money, and on memberships like this one that is usually a payment processor acting for the site rather than the site itself. CCBill, Epoch, Segpay, Probiller, RocketGate, Vendo, Verotel and Netbilling are the ones you are most likely to see. It matters because a processor holding your mandate can stop the rebill even when you have lost the site login completely.

When the next charge would land

Trial converts automatically. If you took a headset bundle, check the minimum term attached to it before cancelling, because that is a commitment rather than a rolling month.

When does access end after you cancel?

At the end of the paid term — and with VR memberships that can be a long way out, because these are commonly sold on quarterly, six-month or annual terms. Cancelling today keeps the library working until the date you had already paid to, whichever system holds the subscription: a site-held membership shows the end date in the account billing page, and a store-held one shows it in the headset store's subscriptions list. Check the date in whichever of those two actually holds yours, because the other one knows nothing about it.

The term length that makes this expensive to get wrong

BadoinkVR is sold alongside sibling VR sites in bundles. Cancelling one site can leave a bundle membership live.

What you actually keep

Access ends with the term; downloads taken beforehand are what you keep.

Removing the account afterwards

Requested separately from support.

If you have cancelled and the charge keeps coming

The overwhelmingly common cause is that the subscription is held by your headset's app store rather than by the site, so the cancellation you performed on the website was never able to touch it. Check your store subscriptions list first. If the subscription genuinely is site-held, the processor on your statement can revoke it.

Why people leave BadoinkVR in the first place

A VR headset is essential, the trial converts to full price, and access ends when you stop paying.

The pay-once comparison

VR memberships are the most expensive recurring products in this category, which makes the comparison with paying once unusually stark. A one-time-payment library costs a single price for permanent access with downloads you keep — no long term to commit to, no store subscription to track, nothing to renew. Selected Content is built that way, with new content weekly and a 30-day money-back guarantee.

VR memberships are the most expensive recurring products on this list and are almost always sold on long terms, so a missed renewal here costs considerably more than a missed month elsewhere. Confirm which system holds the subscription before you cancel anything, then diary the renewal date.
