Why Wrike scores 7.2/10
Beyond the fees and refund rules, here is how Wrike scores on cancellation friction — the six axes that decide how hard leaving really is.
- Locating the cancellation option is the hardest part of leaving Wrike — it scores 9.4/10, meaning the link is buried in account settings or hidden behind a help article.
- The flow itself is long, running about 7.2 steps from start to finish.
- Refund and proration terms are opaque — this axis scores 8.4/10, so you often only learn what you get back at the final screen.
- Wrike stacks retention prompts — 6.3/10 on confirmation screens, with “are you sure?” and pause or discount offers before you are done.
- You may be pushed to contact support before cancelling (9.1/10 on this axis).
- Everything can be done online with no phone call (0.0/10).
The net result: Wrike lands at 7.2/10 on our Friction Score — high. Use the verified steps on this page to cancel without hitting every wall.
