Discount you can get
Up to 60% off for 3 months; some users also report being offered 2 free months or a pause option instead
How to unlock this discount
Log in to your Adobe account at account.adobe.com and navigate to 'Plans & Payments' (or 'Manage Plan').
Click 'Cancel Plan' on your All Apps (or active) subscription.
When prompted for a cancellation reason, select 'It's too expensive' or 'Price' as your reason — this triggers the retention/discount flow.
Adobe will present a first retention screen, typically offering a smaller discount (e.g., 30-40% off) or a pause option. Review the offer but you may decline it to see a better one.
After declining the first offer, Adobe typically escalates to a second screen offering up to 60% off for 3 months or 2 free months.
When you see the discount you want, click 'Accept Offer' or 'Keep My Plan' with the discount applied. Your subscription continues at the reduced rate for the promotional period.
Verify the discount is reflected in your Plans & Payments page. Set a calendar reminder for when the promotional period ends so you can repeat the process or reassess.
Insider Tips
Always select 'too expensive' or 'price' as your cancellation reason — this is the trigger for the best monetary retention offers
Decline the first offer presented, as Adobe typically escalates to a better discount on the second screen (60% off vs 30-40%)
Do NOT select reasons like 'switching to another product' or 'not using it enough' as these tend to trigger pause offers or plan-switch suggestions instead of price discounts
If you're on a month-to-month plan, the offers may differ — annual plan subscribers tend to get the strongest retention discounts because Adobe wants to keep you locked in
