How can I cancel my Ring of wellness Premium membership subscription?
It is not Ring of wellness handling the payment but the payment platform you purchased your subscription on (e.g. iTunes, Google, Paypal, Samsung, Adyen (payment per credit card on our website). All subscriptions need to be canceled where the original purchase was made.
Please note that uninstalling the app or closing your account will NOT automatically stop your subscription. You have to actively cancel the subscription.
In order to do so, you need to cancel the recurring payments. Bear in mind, the subscription you’ve purchased remains active until it reaches its expiry date even when you cancel it right after the purchase.
For example, if you purchase a 1-month subscription and then choose to cancel it, the subscription will remain active until the end of the 1 month period. But then it will not renew.
Depending on the payment method you’ve used, there are different ways of cancelling your subscription:
1) iTunes: Your subscription can only be cancelled on your iTunes account by following these instructions: Apple Instructions (English), German, Danish, Norwegian, Italian, French, Spanish
NOTE: We can’t cancel your iTunes subscription for Ring of wellness Premium as Apple does not give us access to your payment data. If you don’t have the access to your iTunes account, you’ll have to contact Apple Support.
Please make sure to log into the correct iTunes account. If you can’t see the cancel button in iTunes that either means you don’t have an active auto-renewing subscription (it might already have been cancelled), or you’re not logged into the correct iTunes account.
2) GooglePlay: Log into your GooglePlay account and follow the instructions from this link: GooglePlay Instructions
NOTE: Please make sure to log into the correct Google account. If you can’t see the cancel button in Google that either means you don’t have an active auto-renewing subscription (it might already have been cancelled), or you’re not logged into the correct Google account.
3) PayPal: Cancel it by logging into your PayPal account via https://www.paypal.com/ and terminate the subscription.
4) Credit card on our website: Please log into you account on and cancel it from there.
5) Samsung: Go to Samsung Galaxy Apps – Go to top right ‘My Page’ – Go to Receipts – Go to ‘Items’ find Ring of wellness subscription – Unsubscribe or log into your account and follow this link https://apps.samsung.com/appquery/OrderList.as?type=item

Check that the ‘Automatic Log In’ setting on your account is still set.
To do this:
Sign in and hover over ‘Profile’ in the top navigation bar and select any link under ‘My Account’.
In the ‘Sign in details’ section, click ‘update’ where it says ‘Automatic Log In’.
Select ‘Yes’ where it asks ‘Do you wish to stay logged in when you leave Ring of wellness ?’ and click ‘Confirm’.
When you return to the website, just click on any navigation tab and you will be signed straight in. If you have tried this and the problem persists, please contact the support
If you access Ring of Wellness through DIFFERENT computers (e.g. work & home)

My start weight is wrong. How do I change it?
Your Weight Tracker chart will have picked up the very first starting weight you entered into your Personal Details. You need to change this in two places…
Click on the ‘My Profile’ tab and select the ‘Personal Details’ tab. Enter your correct start weight and then reset your goal weight further down the page. (Remember we advise that you set your targets in steps that are no more than a 10% loss). Then press ‘+Update’ to correct your Profile. This will update your daily calorie target and also reset your goal weight date automatically.
Now click on the ‘Weigh-in’ tab and click on the ‘Update Weight Tracker’ link, then click on ‘Show Barchart’ and select ‘Show Data’ from the drop down. This will display weight entries as text rather than a bar chart view. To delete previous weight records, click on the grey dustbin next to each one. (You will need to remove each entry one at a time)
Enter your correct start weight in the ‘Add new weight’ section above your charts. Press the ‘+ Update Chart’ to enter your new start weight for today’s date.
Tip!
If you want to enter your new start weight on a date before today, you need to use the calendar. This is the small icon with what looks like a number ‘7’ on it (to the left of the ‘update chart’ button). Click on the calendar icon to open it, select the date you want, then close the window by clicking the small x in the top right corner. Press the ‘update chart’ button.
Your start weight entry must be the earliest entry by date for your overall weight loss to be calculated correctly.
Do I need to eat less if I don’t burn off 200 calories in exercise?
No – it is not necessary to reduce your food intake by 200 calories if you don’t achieve the exercise target, but this combined target was set for you to help you achieve your weight loss at the rate you selected. You can still expect to lose, but the extra activity target is designed to accelerate this.
To lose 1lb a week you need to create a calorie deficit of between 500 – 600 calories a day. This is best achieved through a combination of eating less and increasing your activity level – hence why you are also set a target to burn 200 calories each day in additional activity.
Burning the extra 200 calories is especially important if your daily target is 1,400 calories to ensure that you lose weight at the rate you have selected. You will still lose weight by controlling your food intake, but without the exercise, but weight loss may be slightly slower (this is all explained on your Results page on the website).
Plus increasing your activity level has so many positive benefits on your general health!
