Before You Begin

Export all required data and confirm subscription billing is handled before disconnecting your Pelcro account. Reach out to [email protected] early if you anticipate needing help with bulk operations.


How to Offboard from Pelcro

Step 1: Export Your Data

Export all data you need for future reference or migration. We recommend exporting:

  • Customers
  • Subscriptions
  • Invoices
  • Orders
  • Addresses
  • Reports and analytics exports
⚠️

Once the platform is disconnected, access to operational data may no longer be available. Complete all exports before proceeding to the next steps.

Troubleshooting: Data export issues
  • Export timing out or failing: Try exporting smaller data sets (e.g., by date range or entity type) instead of a full bulk export.
  • Missing records in export: Verify that your filters include all statuses (active, canceled, expired) to capture the complete data set.
  • Unable to access export feature: Confirm your account has admin-level permissions. Contact [email protected] if access issues persist.
    • Password export: If you need access to the hashed password, please contact the [email protected]. We don't have access to any clear text password and hence won't be able to provide them.

Step 2: Cancel Auto-Renewing Subscriptions

To prevent future billing, cancel all auto-renewing subscriptions and ensure no subscriptions remain scheduled for renewal.

Review your subscription list in the Pelcro dashboard and cancel each active auto-renewal individually, or proceed to Step 3 to request bulk cancellation assistance.

Troubleshooting: Subscription cancellation issues
  • Subscription still renewing after cancellation: Check that the cancellation was set to take effect immediately rather than at the end of the billing period.
  • Unable to cancel a subscription: The subscription may be in a processing state. Wait for the current billing cycle to complete, then retry.
  • Large number of subscriptions to cancel: Use Step 3 below to request bulk cancellation through the Core API.

Step 3: Request Bulk Cancellation Assistance (Optional)

If you have a large number of subscriptions to cancel, Pelcro's Professional Services team can execute bulk operations through the Core API.

Contact [email protected] with:

  • Your site ID
  • The scope of subscriptions to cancel (all, or filtered by plan/status)
  • Your preferred cancellation effective date

Step 4: Confirm Billing Wind-Down

Before proceeding with disconnection:

  • Verify all outstanding invoices are handled
  • Confirm no active billing cycles remain
  • Ensure customers are notified if required by your internal policies
Troubleshooting: Billing wind-down issues
  • Outstanding invoices not clearing: Verify payment method validity in your payment gateway. Void or write off invoices that are no longer collectible.
  • Unexpected charges appearing: Check for subscriptions with delayed billing or trial periods ending soon. Cancel these before proceeding.
  • Customer notification questions: Pelcro does not send offboarding notifications to end customers automatically — handle this through your own communication channels.

Step 5: Platform Disconnection

Once off-boarding is confirmed, you can disconnect the platform from your payment processor typically from their platform. The Pelcro team can also disconnect the connection from our end, however, we recommend

  • Disconnect Pelcro from your payment processor
  • Disable payment processor event processing
  • Deauthorize payment gateway integrations
  • Disconnect any other integrations
  • Disable any active webhooks and APIs
