How to cancel Perplexity Pro via Airtel before it bills you
Will you be charged?
Yes, unless you cancel. The subscription renews as a paid plan 12 months after the day you claimed it, at $20/month.
The offer has ended for new claims, but people who claimed it are still being billed on this schedule.
Perplexity bills, not Airtel: the credit card is saved on the Perplexity account at redemption. Accounts that never added a card were shown as 'Paused' and downgraded to the free plan. Claims made up to Jan 16 2026 run to about Jan 2027, so renewals are happening now.
Enter the day you claimed it to see when the 12-month free period ends.
