Avoid Surprise Charges After Your GeForce NOW Free Trial

Like most gaming services, a GeForce NOW free trial (if you're on one) is designed to convert into a paid subscription automatically unless you cancel before it ends — that's the default on almost every subscription trial, not something specific to GeForce NOW. The trick is simply not forgetting.

How to not get caught out

  1. 1Note the exact trial-end date the moment you sign up — it's usually shown on the confirmation screen or email, and it's easy to lose track of once a few weeks pass.
  2. 2Set a reminder a few days before, not on the last day — that gives you a buffer to actually decide and act, rather than discovering it's already converted to paid.
  3. 3Check your account/billing settings for GeForce NOW to confirm whether you're currently on a trial and when it converts — don't rely on memory alone.
  4. 4If you decide not to keep it, cancel through the same place you signed up — an app store subscription needs to be cancelled from the app store, not from within the GeForce NOW app itself. See our full cancellation guide for GeForce NOW.

Let Subdek remember the trial-end date for you

Add GeForce NOW to Subdek with its trial-end (or renewal) date, and you'll get a reminder before it quietly becomes a paid subscription — across every trial and subscription you're juggling, not just this one.
