Clicking Learn More will also cause a Deactivate button to appear for that feature, so you can turn off any features you aren't ready to use yet.

I don't want to use all the features. Can I turn some of them off?

Sure! You can deactivate any feature you don't feel like using, and reactivate it at any time.

To turn specific features off, head to the main Jetpack page in your dashboard. In the box explaining the feature you’d like to turn off, click the Learn More button. A Deactivate button will appear. Click that button and that feature will be completely deactivated.
