Does Lovable offer a refund if I cancel in the first month?
Quick answer
In general, no: Lovable's subscription fees and prepaid credits are non-refundable except where the law requires it, and there is no proration if you cancel mid-cycle. The good news is you do not need a refund to try it risk-free, because the Free plan lets you build real projects before you ever pay. Verify the current refund terms on Lovable's billing page.
The straight answer is that Lovable treats subscription fees and prepaid credit top-ups as non-refundable, except where consumer law in your region requires otherwise. If you cancel partway through a month, you are not billed again, but you also are not refunded for the remaining days, and there is no proration. So a first-month refund is not something to count on.
That sounds strict, but the way to de-risk your money is to never pay before you are sure. Lovable has no separate Pro trial because the Free plan is the trial path. You get daily credits to build actual projects, see the real quality of the generated app, and confirm the workflow fits, all before entering a card. Treat the Free plan as your money-back guarantee that you take before paying rather than after.
If you do upgrade and then decide it is not for you, cancel before your next renewal date so you are not charged for another month. Canceling is self-serve through Settings, Plans and Billing, Downgrade to Free. You keep your account, projects, and code, and lose only the paid features and unused credits.
One specific caution on credits: top-ups are prepaid and non-refundable, though they stay valid for 12 months. So do not stock up on a large credit pack right before you might leave. Buy top-ups only when you know you will use them, and lean on your included monthly plan credits (which roll over while subscribed) first.
Who this matters most for: if a no-questions-asked refund window is a hard requirement for you, know upfront that Lovable's model is try-free-then-pay rather than pay-then-refund. For most builders that is fine, because the Free plan already removes the risk of paying for something you have not tested. Always check the live billing page for the current, region-specific terms.
