What is HEADSPACE on my bank statement?

This is a Headspace subscription — a popular guided meditation and mindfulness app.

Headspace — Meditation app

✓ Legitimate charge

HEADSPACE on your bank statement is a charge for a Headspace subscription. Headspace is one of the world's most popular meditation and mindfulness apps, offering guided meditation sessions, sleep content, focus music, and breathing exercises. The app has a very limited free tier — if you're being charged, you or someone using your device has an active paid subscription.

Headspace subscriptions cost around £49.99/year or £12.99/month for an individual plan. A Headspace Family plan covers up to 6 people under one subscription and costs more per month. A common reason for an unexpected charge is forgetting to cancel after a free trial — Headspace offers 7 to 14-day trials that automatically convert to paid subscriptions if not cancelled before the trial ends.

If you subscribed through the iPhone or Android app, the charge may not appear as HEADSPACE on your statement. It may instead show as an Apple charge (APPLE.COM/BILL) or a Google Play transaction. In that case, you'll also need to cancel through Apple or Google, not the Headspace website.

Questions about Headspace charges

How do I cancel Headspace?
The cancellation method depends on how you subscribed. Website: log into headspace.com → click your profile → Account → Subscription → Cancel Plan. iPhone/iPad: Settings → tap your name → Subscriptions → Headspace → Cancel. Android: open Google Play → tap your profile → Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions → Headspace → Cancel.
Why was I charged by Headspace if I thought I had a free trial?
Headspace's free trials (typically 7–14 days) automatically convert to a paid subscription at the end of the trial period if you don't cancel beforehand. The charge is the first payment of your active subscription. Cancel immediately to stop future charges — most platforms won't refund a charge if the trial period clearly passed.
Can I get a refund from Headspace?
Headspace considers refund requests on a case-by-case basis. Contact their support via headspace.com/contact if you believe you were charged in error. For subscriptions via Apple or Google, use their standard refund processes: Apple via reportaproblem.apple.com (within 90 days), Google Play support (within 48 hours for most purchases).
Why does my Headspace charge appear as Apple or Google?
If you subscribed through the iOS App Store or Google Play, those platforms process the payment. Your statement will show APPLE.COM/BILL or a Google Play charge rather than HEADSPACE. You'll also need to cancel through Apple or Google — cancelling on the Headspace website won't cancel an App Store or Google Play subscription.
Is there a free version of Headspace?
Headspace has a very limited free tier with a small number of introductory meditation sessions, but the vast majority of content requires a paid subscription. If you're being charged, you have an active subscription. Cancelling moves your account to the free tier — you won't lose access entirely, just most of the content.
