Find & cancel forgotten subscriptions

The average person is paying for a handful of subscriptions they've forgotten about. Here's how to find yours and stop the bleed.

1. 1

   Add a few months of statements

   The more history in an account, the more reliably Sortlumo tells a real subscription from a one-off. Aim for at least two or three statements.

2. 2

   Open the Recurrent tab

   You'll see every detected recurring charge, each with its annualized cost — the yearly total, not just the monthly line.

3. 3

   Sort by yearly cost

   Start at the top. The biggest annual numbers are where cancelling frees up the most.

4. 4

   Cancel the ones you don't use

   Sortlumo shows you what and how much; you cancel directly with the merchant. Then keep an eye on next month's Recurrent tab to confirm the charge is gone.
