Frequently asked questions

Can I still use QuickBooks on my desktop and mobile devices?
Yes, your access to QuickBooks and the app won’t be interrupted. Once you transfer, you’ll be billed directly through QuickBooks instead of the app store.

When will I be charged for QuickBooks after transferring from the app store?
Your first bill date will be 30 days after you transfer. This way, we won’t bill you twice because your subscription is current with the app store.

What if I forget to cancel?
We’ll send you a reminder email. If you transfer to QuickBooks billing and don’t cancel in the app store, you may get billed twice. Contact Apple or Google for a refund if this happens.

Will I lose my QuickBooks data?
No, your data is safe. If you cancel in the app store but don’t finish transferring to QuickBooks billing, we retain your data for 1 year.
