Cancel compliance settings

Prev Next

Cancel compliance helps you meet cancellation laws in specific US states, like California and Colorado. Skio uses each customer's shipping address to decide whether it applies.

Before you start

  • You need at least one active Cancel Flow. See How to create and manage Cancel Flows.

  • Cancel compliance is a global setting, so it applies to all your Cancel Flows.

  • Consult your legal counsel to decide which states to add and which compliance setting to follow.

What is Cancel compliance?

Cancel compliance gives customers in the states you choose the cancellation experience those states require. Customers everywhere else get your regular Cancel Flow.

With Cancel available at every step, customers in the states you add:

  • See your full Cancel Flow.

  • Can cancel at any step by clicking Cancel anyway.

  • Can share a cancellation reason after they cancel.
