Target Circle 360 Cancellation: Refunds, Renewals & Free Trial Rules

Target Circle 360 is Target's paid membership, separate from the free Target Circle loyalty program. If you want to stop paying for it, the rules that matter are in Target's Terms & Conditions: when you're billed, how to cancel and whether any money comes back. This guide covers monthly, annual, discounted and free-trial memberships. For everything else about shopping at Target, see the Target store page.

Can you get a refund on Target Circle 360?

Plan on no. Target's terms state that the Target Circle 360 membership fee is non-refundable ¹, and repeat that the cost is disclosed when you sign up and the fee is nonrefundable ¹. The terms describe no partial or prorated refund for unused time ¹.

If you signed up for an extra benefit through a third-party partner, fees you paid to that partner may also be non-refundable and follow the partner's own terms ¹.

How to cancel Target Circle 360

You have two official ways to cancel:

1. Online: go to the Membership section of your Target account page and cancel there ¹.
2. By phone: call Target.com Guest Services at 1-800-591-3869 ².

To see what you've been charged, open Orders in your Target.com account and view the order details for the membership fee ¹. Renewal notices, including the amount, the date and instructions on how to cancel, are sent electronically on Target.com or by email ¹.

When to cancel so you aren't charged again

Target Circle 360 renews automatically. Target charges your payment method on a recurring basis for the membership price then in effect, plus applicable taxes, until you cancel ². Your card is billed on the day the membership renews ¹, and the membership stays in effect until it's canceled ¹.

That makes the deadline simple: the cancellation must be completed before your current membership period renews ². If prices change, Target says it will notify you at the email address on your Target.com account ¹.

What about closing your whole Target.com account? Then the fee isn't renewed and the membership expires at the end of the current membership period ¹. The terms don't separately spell out how long benefits last after you cancel Circle 360 itself, so check the Membership page when you cancel.

Canceling during a free trial

Target's delivery page promotes a free 14-day trial as an alternative to paying $9.99 for same-day delivery ⁴; the terms of your own offer are what count. With any free trial, Target processes the first membership fee when the trial ends ¹. To avoid that charge, cancel before the end of the free trial period in the Membership section of your Target account ¹.

Trial members may not get every Circle 360 benefit; Target can reserve some benefits for paid, non-trial members ¹.

What canceling Circle 360 doesn't cancel

Circle 360, Target Circle and the Target Circle Card are three separate things:

• Target Circle (free): canceling Circle 360 doesn't end your Target Circle membership ¹.
• Target Circle Card: canceling Circle 360 doesn't close a Target Circle Card either; for card questions, Target points you to Target Card Services at 1-800-659-2396 ¹.
• The reverse is also true: opting out of Target Circle doesn't cancel a Circle 360 membership ¹.

Prices, discounts and losing eligibility

The regular price is $10.99/month or $99/year ². Verified teachers, military members, college students and government assistance recipients, plus shoppers with a Target Circle Card (debit or credit) saved to their Target account, pay $4.99/month or $49/year ². For Circle Card holders, that's the $99/year fee cut to $49/year, or $10.99/month cut to $4.99/month ³.

That discount lasts only as long as you're eligible. If your eligibility changes or you remove your Circle Card from your account, the subscription renews at the regular price ². The membership discount can't be applied to previous purchases or combined with other promotions, and it's limited to one per guest ². Target may also run other discounted (even free) membership offers with their own terms ¹.

Payment methods and failed renewals

• Accepted: only valid credit cards or a Target Debit Card; other debit cards can't be used ¹.
• Gift cards: a Target GiftCard can pay for your first membership purchase, but you still need a credit card or Target Debit Card on file, and that card pays renewals ¹.
• Not accepted: third-party installment plans (such as Affirm and PayPal Pay in 4), PayPal and Apple Pay ¹.
• Changing the card: log into My Account on Target.com, select Wallet and edit or delete the card tied to the membership ¹.

If your original card fails at renewal, Target will try another payment card in your Target.com account ¹. If it still can't complete the renewal, the membership is canceled ¹. Keep this in mind before removing a card: an invalid card doesn't automatically stop the charge if another card is connected to your account ².

Membership rules worth knowing

• One per guest, and the membership and its benefits are non-transferable ¹.
• Personal use only: Circle 360 may be used for personal, family and household purposes, not business ¹.
• Good standing: access to all benefits requires that you're a member in good standing ¹.
• Target can change the program: Target reserves the right to change, limit or terminate Circle 360, its benefits or your membership at any time, with or without notice ¹.

Before you cancel, weigh what you'd give up. Circle 360 benefits include unlimited same-day deliveries on orders over $35 ¹, available only at select Target stores ², and 30 additional days to return Target.com and Target app purchases beyond the standard return window ¹. The membership terms don't require paying with a Target Circle Card for that extension, but Target's returns help page describes the extra 30 days as applying to items bought with a Target Circle Card ⁵, while the Circle 360 program rules cover Circle Card purchases or Circle 360 members ². If you rely on the extension for a store purchase, pay with a Target Circle Card to be safe. See the Target return policy for the base return rules.

Quick tips

• Note your renewal date and don't leave it to the last minute: the cancellation must be completed before the period renews ².
• On a free trial? Cancel before it ends, or the first fee will be charged ¹.
• Canceling Circle 360 won't close your Target Circle Card; that's a separate call to Target Card Services ¹.
• Lost your student, teacher or military status? Expect the renewal at the regular price ².
