Membership cancellation reasons allow you to capture why a membership is cancelled by having admins select a reason from a predefined list during the cancellation.
This helps you better understand member behavior and improve retention strategies by getting clear, comparable insights across all memberships.
How it works & limitations

Only admins may select a cancellation reason. Not members.
The list of reasons is predefined and not customizable.
To edit a cancellation reason, select a new reason and edit the notes/comments section if necessary.
