You\u2019re not alone.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crresearch.com\/blog\/subscription-service-statistics-and-costs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">one recent study<\/a>, 42% of consumers admitted that they\u2019d stopped using a subscription service but forgot they were still paying for it. The same survey found that consumers spend an average of $133 more each month on subscriptions than they realize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is one of the reasons this model is so popular with businesses these days. While in some cases, subscriptions can be incredibly convenient, giving consumers access to helpful services \u2014 gym memberships, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.accrediteddebtrelief.com\/blog\/which-meal-subscription-boxes-have-the-best-value\/\">meal deliveries<\/a>, curated boxes, content, virtual learning, software \u2014 the other side of subscriptions can mean maximizing profits at the expense of the consumer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Part of the subscription model often involves \u201cfree trials\u201d that quietly turn into paid subscriptions which can go unnoticed for months. Even the services you willingly sign up for usually have autopay in place, so when you no longer need the service, it\u2019s very easy to forget to unsubscribe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s why we\u2019ve decided to share 5 tips and tricks to make sure you\u2019re not throwing your money away on subscriptions and getting the most out of the ones you do use!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Perform a Subscription Inventory<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"452\" src=\"https:\/\/www.accrediteddebtrelief.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/TopDollarImage_Subscriptions_Inventory-1.jpg\" alt=\"View of a woman's hands making a list of subscriptions on a notepad and working on a laptop\" class=\"wp-image-4907\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.accrediteddebtrelief.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/TopDollarImage_Subscriptions_Inventory-1.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.accrediteddebtrelief.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/TopDollarImage_Subscriptions_Inventory-1-300x177.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>One simple way to take stock of your current subscriptions is to keep a close eye on your credit card statements each month. If you see a charge that you don\u2019t recognize, do some digging. You can also check whichever app store you use to investigate and cancel any app subscriptions. <a href=\"https:\/\/gizmodo.com\/how-to-manage-and-cancel-your-subscriptions-on-ios-an-1846609304\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">This handy video<\/a> shows you how to do just that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Budgeting apps like <a href=\"https:\/\/mint.intuit.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Mint<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rocketmoney.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Rocket Money<\/a> can also help you track your subscriptions. These can be very useful when it comes to nailing down those tricky annual charges that won\u2019t show up on every monthly bill.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Cancel or Pause Unused Subscriptions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you have that inventory of all your subscriptions, really ask yourself how often you use them. Some may be more obvious \u2014 that premium dating app subscription can go because you\u2019ve been exclusive with your new boyfriend for over a month now. But what about the ones that you use off and on? Maybe you only signed up for Disney+ to binge <em>The Mandalorian<\/em>, but that\u2019s going to be off the air for the next two years. Be sure to pause or temporarily cancel subscriptions until you will actually use them again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Share Subscriptions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, we\u2019re not advocating anything underhanded here. Just take a look at the fine print when it comes to \u201cfamily plans.\u201d How does that company define \u201cfamily?\u201d Do you need to live at the same address? At 60% more for a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spotify.com\/us\/family\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">family Spotify Premium plan<\/a>, you could save a lot of money just by sharing this plan with a few live-in family members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Haggle Down the Price<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Some subscriptions allow you to bargain down your monthly price. Cable and cell phone services are the obvious ones, but during the pandemic, even companies like Adobe allowed some of their customers to pay less for their expensive work software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Do Your Homework When You Sign Up For a Free Trial<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"452\" src=\"https:\/\/www.accrediteddebtrelief.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/TopDollarImage_Subscriptions_FreeTrial-1.jpg\" alt=\"Blue Coffee Cup with &quot;Free Trial&quot; printed on it next to small hourglass suggesting free trial subscriptions\" class=\"wp-image-4908\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.accrediteddebtrelief.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/TopDollarImage_Subscriptions_FreeTrial-1.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.accrediteddebtrelief.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/TopDollarImage_Subscriptions_FreeTrial-1-300x177.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>While those free trial offers can make you feel like you\u2019re getting something for nothing, there\u2019s almost always a catch. Read the fine print! Make sure you know exactly what you\u2019re agreeing to. For example, if you\u2019re ordering a delivery, check that there aren\u2019t hidden shipping costs. Note exactly how long the trial lasts and mark your calendar so you know when to cancel. Finally, check reviews to see if people complain about getting tricked by the trial period!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Doing some basic homework can really help you avoid paying for something you didn\u2019t necessarily want in the first place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Words<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Some subscriptions can be a really great deal \u2014 Costco\u2019s $120 annual membership price could be well worth it to get access to their low warehouse prices. And even if someone else might pass on a fancy gym membership, if you make it a habit to leave the house and exercise every day, you\u2019re getting real value there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But it\u2019s important to make sure that you want and use all of the subscriptions you\u2019re paying for, and that you\u2019re not simply throwing away money through inattention.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Explore these 5 tips and tricks to make sure you\u2019re not throwing your money away on subscriptions and getting the most out of the ones you do use.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":4903,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[50],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4899","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-finance-planning"],"accredited":{"author":{"name":"Stella Martin","url":"https:\/\/www.accrediteddebtrelief.com\/blog\/author\/smartin\/"},"categories":[{"name":"Financial Planning","slug":"finance-planning","url":"https:\/\/www.accrediteddebtrelief.com\/blog\/category\/finance-planning\/"}],"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.accrediteddebtrelief.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/768x432_TopDollarBlogHeader_Subscriptions.png"},"acf":{"edited_by":null,"reviewed_by":null,"fact_checked_by":null},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 -
