If you're a Google Workspace admin looking to stop automatic debit transactions from your bank account, this guide will walk you through the procedure of changing or removing your payment method via the Google Admin Console.
Introduction
Automatic debit transactions can be convenient for recurring payments, but there might be instances where you need to stop them, such as updating your payment method or simply managing your expenses differently. Fortunately, Google Workspace allows you to manage these settings directly via the Admin Console.
Steps to Remove or Change Your Payment Method
Access the Admin Console:
- Go to the Google Admin Console at admin.google.com. Ensure you are logged in with an admin account.
Navigate to Billing Section:
- From the Admin Console homepage, click on 'Billing'.
Select Your Subscription:
- Choose the subscription for which you want to change the payment method.
Manage Payment Methods:
- Click on 'Payment settings'.
- Under the 'Payment method' section, you will see options to either add or remove payment methods.
Removing a Payment Method:
- To stop auto debits, you need to remove the existing payment method.
- Find the payment method you wish to remove and click on 'Remove'.
Confirm the Removal:
- Follow the on-screen instructions to confirm the removal of the payment method.
Add a New Payment Method (optional):
- If desired, you can add a new payment method by clicking 'Add payment method' and entering the necessary details.
Additional Considerations
Ensure Adequate Payment Sources: Removing a payment method means that if no alternative is available, your services could be suspended due to non-payment. Always ensure that there is at least one valid payment method on file.
Contact Support: If you're unable to change the payment method or encounter any issues, consider reaching out to Google Workspace Support for more assistance.
Following these steps will help you manage auto debit transactions effectively within Google Workspace, keeping your billing organized and under control.
