You can cancel Disney Plus directly through your account settings on any device
To cancel, sign into your Disney Plus account on a web browser or the app, go to your account settings, find the subscription section, and select the option to cancel. The process takes about two minutes. Your access ends on the date your current billing period expires—Disney Plus does not charge you again after you cancel, but you keep watching until that date passes.
The exact steps differ slightly depending on whether you subscribed through Disney Plus directly, through a bundle, or through a third-party service like Apple, Google Play, or Amazon. Each route has its own cancellation path, and canceling through the wrong place won't actually stop your charges.
Key Takeaways
- Cancel directly through Disney Plus account settings if you signed up on the Disney website or app.
- If you subscribed through Apple, Google Play, Amazon, or another third party, you must cancel through that service instead, not through Disney Plus.
- Your access continues until the end of your current billing cycle, even after you cancel.
- Disney Plus does not process refunds for the current billing period once you cancel.
- You can resubscribe at any time without penalty.
Canceling a Disney Plus subscription you bought directly
If you created your Disney account and paid Disney Plus directly with a credit card or PayPal, cancel through the Disney Plus website or app. On a computer, go to disneyplus.com, click your profile icon in the top right, select "Account," then find "Subscription" and click "Manage Subscription." You will see a button labeled "Cancel Subscription"—click it and confirm your choice.
On the Disney Plus app for phone or tablet, tap your profile icon, go to "Account," then "Subscription," and select "Cancel Subscription." The app walks you through the same confirmation steps as the website. Either way, you will receive an email confirming the cancellation within a few minutes.
Canceling if you subscribed through a third-party service
If you signed up for Disney Plus through Apple App Store, Google Play Store, Amazon Prime Video Channels, or another third-party platform, you must cancel through that service, not through Disney Plus itself. Canceling in the Disney Plus app or website will not stop your charges if the subscription is linked to a third-party account.
Through Apple: Open the Settings app, tap your name, select "Subscriptions," find Disney Plus, and tap "Cancel Subscription."
Through Google Play: Open the Google Play app, tap your profile icon, go to "Payments and subscriptions," select "Subscriptions," find Disney Plus, and tap "Cancel subscription."
Through Amazon Prime Video Channels: Go to amazon.com, sign in, go to "Your Account," select "Prime Video," then "Manage Your Prime Video Channels," find Disney Plus, and click "Cancel Channel."
Through other services: If you subscribed through Verizon, T-Mobile, or another carrier or service, contact that company's customer service or check your account settings there.
What happens to your account after you cancel
You can watch Disney Plus until the last day of your current billing cycle. If you paid on the 15th of the month, you keep access through the end of that month, even if you cancel on the 16th. After that date, you lose access to your account and cannot watch anything.
Your watchlist, saved preferences, and viewing history are deleted after a period of time—Disney does not specify exactly how long, but assume anything you want to remember should be noted before your access ends. You can resubscribe later without losing anything permanent; you straightforward start fresh with a new account.
Canceling a Disney Bundle subscription
If you pay for a bundle that includes Disney Plus, Hulu, and ESPN+, canceling Disney Plus alone is not possible—you must cancel the entire bundle. When you cancel, all three services stop at the end of your billing cycle. If you want to keep Hulu or ESPN+ but drop Disney Plus, you will need to cancel the bundle and then resubscribe to the services you want separately, which may cost more than the bundle price.
To cancel a bundle, follow the same steps as canceling a direct Disney Plus subscription: go to your account settings and select "Cancel Subscription." The system will ask you to confirm that you want to cancel all three services.
Reasons Disney Plus might not cancel
If you try to cancel and the button does not appear, you may be signed into the wrong account. Log out completely and sign back in with the email address you used to create your Disney account. If you still cannot find the cancel option, your subscription may be through a third-party service—check your email receipts to see where the charge comes from.
If you see a charge after you canceled, the cancellation may not have gone through. Check your email for a confirmation message. If you did not receive one, try canceling again. If charges continue after a confirmed cancellation, contact Disney Plus customer service through the app or website.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I get a refund if I cancel in the middle of my billing cycle?
No. Disney Plus does not refund charges for the current billing period. You keep access until the end of that period, but you will not receive money back for the unused portion of the month.
What if I cancel but still see a charge on my credit card?
Check your email for a cancellation confirmation. If you received one, the charge you see may be from before the cancellation was processed. If you see a charge after your billing cycle ended, contact Disney Plus customer service when ready through the app or website to report it.
Can I pause my subscription instead of canceling?
Disney Plus does not offer a pause feature. You must either keep paying or cancel. You can resubscribe at any time without penalty if you want to return later.
Do I lose my watchlist and saved shows when I cancel?
Yes. Your watchlist, viewing history, and preferences are deleted after your access ends. Write down any show titles you want to remember before your subscription expires.
How long does it take for the cancellation to take effect?
Cancellation is when ready in your account, but you keep watching until the end of your current billing cycle. You will receive a confirmation email within a few minutes of canceling.
