How to Cancel ClickFunnels and Stop Paying $97-297/Month (2026 Guide)
Updated February 2026 • 7 min read
🚨 Export everything before canceling. All your funnels, pages, contacts, and workflows are deleted when your account closes. There is no recovery.
ClickFunnels is one of the most expensive SaaS tools most entrepreneurs use — $97 to $297 per month for a funnel builder. That is $1,164 to $3,564 per year. If your funnels are not generating more revenue than that, it is time to move on. But you need to export your data first.
For context, you can build equivalent funnels with WordPress + Elementor for $0-50/month, or use Carrd ($19/year) for simple landing pages.
Before You Cancel: Export Checklist
1. Save Your Funnel Designs
Go to each funnel → Settings → Share Funnel
Copy the Share Funnel URL — this lets you import the funnel into another ClickFunnels account later if needed
Screenshot each page design for reference when rebuilding elsewhere
Save any custom CSS/JS code snippets
2. Export Your Contacts
Go to Contacts → Export
Download as CSV — this is your email list, customer data, and lead information
Import into your new email platform (Mailchimp, ConvertKit, etc.) before canceling
3. Point Your Domains Elsewhere
If you connected a custom domain to ClickFunnels, update your DNS records
Point your domain to your new hosting before canceling
Otherwise, your domain will show an error page after cancellation
4. Download Order/Transaction Data
Export your sales data, order history, and customer payments
You need this for tax records and accounting
