Cancel Monthly Donation?

I regret that I must cancel my monthly donation to iNaturalist due to local needs for the poor: food, medical care, winter clothing, heating fuel, and similar humanitarian needs.

I can’t for the life of me find how to cancel my automatic donation. In my view, making it easy to donate and difficult to end a donation is a form of entrapment, and is unfair to users.

Help greatly appreciated!

If I go to the page to become a monthly supporter (Account Settings → Bottom right of the page there is a hyperlink within the donation text that reads “Click here to become a Monthly Supporter”), I can see these two pieces of information in regards to cancelling:

The donation system is a third-party plugin (Donorbox). Check whichever emails you might have used when you made the donation, and you should be able to find the account setup email they’re referencing.

You should be able to follow their help page here for completing the task: https://donorbox.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360020560231-How-do-I-pause-or-cancel-recurring-donations-as-a-donor

Hi David, I’ve cancelled your recurring gift. You can always reach out to donations@inaturalist.org with questions. Thanks for your support!

Thanks to @joeb for chiming in with instructions on how to do it through Donorbox.
