Cancel GTA Plus Through the Rockstar Games Launcher

To stop your GTA Plus subscription on PC, you need to go through the Rockstar Games Launcher, which is where the subscription is managed. Open the Launcher, sign in with the account that has the active subscription, and look for your account settings — usually found in the top right corner or in a menu labeled "Settings" or "Account".

Once you're in your account settings, find the section for subscriptions or memberships. You should see GTA Plus listed there with its current status. Click on it to see your subscription details, including the renewal date and payment method. From there, you'll find an option to cancel or unsubscribe. Click that option and follow the on-screen prompts to confirm the cancellation.

The cancellation takes effect when ready, but you'll keep access to GTA Plus benefits until your current billing period ends. After that date, your membership stops and you won't be charged again.

Key Takeaways

  • Open the Rockstar Games Launcher on your PC and sign in to the account with the active GTA Plus subscription.
  • Navigate to your account settings and find the subscriptions or memberships section to locate GTA Plus.
  • Select the cancellation option and confirm to stop future charges, though your current billing period access continues until it expires.
  • Check your email for a cancellation confirmation from Rockstar Games after you complete the process.

What Happens After You Cancel

Once you cancel GTA Plus, you lose access to the monthly in-game cash bonus (GTA$500,000) and the monthly car reward when your current billing cycle ends. Any GTA$ you've already received stays in your account and doesn't disappear. You can still play GTA Online, but you won't get the subscription perks anymore.

If you cancel mid-month, you still have access to all GTA Plus benefits until your billing date arrives. For example, if you're billed on the 15th of each month and you cancel on the 5th, you keep your membership active until the 15th. After that date passes without a charge, your subscription is fully canceled.

If You Can't Find the Cancellation Option

Sometimes the subscription settings aren't when ready obvious in the Launcher. Try logging out completely and logging back in — this refreshes your account information and sometimes makes the subscription section appear. Make sure you're looking in the right account; if you have multiple Rockstar accounts, the subscription might be tied to a different one than you're currently viewing.

If the cancellation button still doesn't show up, contact Rockstar Games Support through their website. You'll need to provide your account email and the email associated with your payment method. Support can cancel the subscription manually and send you a confirmation. Response times vary, but Rockstar typically replies within a few business days.

Checking Your Billing History

Before you cancel, you can see exactly when you'll be charged next by looking at your subscription details in the Launcher. This date matters because canceling before that date means you won't be charged again. If you cancel after the charge has already gone through, you've paid for that month and should still have access through the end of that billing period.

You can also check your payment method and billing history through the Rockstar Games website. Sign in, go to your account settings, and look for a "Billing" or "Payment Methods" section. This shows every charge related to GTA Plus and lets you verify that the cancellation went through by confirming no future charges are scheduled.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Don't assume that uninstalling GTA Online or the Rockstar Games Launcher cancels your subscription — it doesn't. The subscription continues to renew on your payment method until you formally cancel it through your account settings. Uninstalling only removes the game files from your PC.

Another common mistake is canceling through your payment method (like your credit card company or PayPal) instead of through Rockstar. While blocking the charge might stop the payment temporarily, Rockstar may still consider your subscription active and could flag your account. Always cancel directly through the Launcher or by contacting Rockstar Support to avoid account issues.

Reactivating GTA Plus Later

If you change your mind after canceling, you can resubscribe to GTA Plus anytime through the same Rockstar Games Launcher. Go back to your account settings, find the subscriptions section, and select the option to resubscribe. You'll be charged for a new month starting from the date you reactivate it.

There's no penalty for canceling and resubscribing later, and you don't lose any GTA$ or progress in the game. Your character and everything you've earned stays with your account permanently.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I lose my GTA Online character if I cancel GTA Plus?

No. Your character, progress, properties, and GTA$ all stay with your account. Canceling the subscription only removes the monthly perks like the bonus cash and car reward. You can still play GTA Online without the subscription.

Can I cancel GTA Plus on my phone or through the website?

You need to cancel through the Rockstar Games Launcher on your PC. The subscription cannot be managed through the website or mobile app. If you're away from your PC, contact Rockstar Games Support and they can cancel it for you.

What if I'm charged after I cancel?

Check your cancellation confirmation email to confirm the date it took effect. If you were charged after the cancellation date, contact Rockstar Games Support with your confirmation email and payment receipt. They can investigate and issue a refund if the charge was an error.

Do I get a refund if I cancel mid-month?

No. GTA Plus charges monthly and doesn't offer prorated refunds. If you cancel on the 5th of a month but aren't billed until the 15th, you won't be charged. If you've already been charged for the month, that charge covers your access through the end of that billing period.
