Cancel through your Paramount Plus account settings
The fastest way to cancel is to log into your Paramount Plus account on a web browser, go to your account settings, and select the option to cancel your subscription. You will see your current plan, the date your next charge is due, and a button to cancel. Paramount Plus will ask you to confirm the cancellation and may offer you a discount to stay — you can decline and proceed with canceling.
After you confirm cancellation, your access ends on the date your current billing period ends. You will not be charged again, but you can use your account until that final date. Paramount Plus sends a confirmation email with your cancellation details and the exact date your access stops.
Key Takeaways
- You can cancel directly through your Paramount Plus account settings on any web browser without calling customer service.
- Your access continues until the end of your current billing period, even after you cancel — you will not lose the rest of the month you paid for.
- If you subscribed through a third-party service like Apple, Amazon, or Google Play, you must cancel through that service instead of through Paramount Plus.
- Paramount Plus will send you a confirmation email showing your cancellation date and final day of access.
Cancel a subscription you bought through Apple, Amazon, or Google
If you signed up for Paramount Plus through the Apple App Store, Amazon Prime Video Channels, Google Play, or Roku, you must cancel through that service, not through Paramount Plus itself. Canceling only on the Paramount Plus website will not stop the charges from your original payment method.
For Apple, open Settings on your iPhone or iPad, tap your name, select Subscriptions, find Paramount Plus, and tap Cancel Subscription. On a Mac, open System Settings, click your name, select Subscriptions, and cancel from there. For Amazon Prime Video Channels, go to Your Account in Amazon, select Memberships and Subscriptions, find Paramount Plus, and click Cancel Channel. For Google Play, open the Play Store app, tap your profile icon, select Subscriptions, choose Paramount Plus, and tap Cancel Subscription. For Roku, go to your Roku account online, select Subscriptions, find Paramount Plus, and cancel.
What happens after you cancel
Once you cancel, you keep your Paramount Plus access through the end of your current billing cycle. If you paid for a month, you can watch until the last day of that month. If you are on an annual plan, you can watch until the anniversary date of your subscription. After that date, you will no longer be able to log in or stream content.
Your profile, watchlist, and viewing history remain in Paramount Plus's system. If you resubscribe later, you can restore your account and your saved information will still be there. You will not lose your preferences or watch history by canceling.
Cancel before your free trial ends
If you are on a free trial, you must cancel before the trial period ends to avoid being charged. Log into your account, go to settings, and look for the cancellation option. The date your trial ends will be clearly shown. Paramount Plus will remind you by email a few days before the trial ends, but canceling yourself ensures you do not miss the important date.
If you forget to cancel and are charged after your trial ends, contact Paramount Plus customer service through the Help section of your account. They can review your situation and may issue a refund if you canceled within a short window after the charge.
Reactivate your subscription later
You can resubscribe to Paramount Plus at any time after you cancel. Log back into your account or create a new one, choose your plan, and enter your payment information. There is no penalty for canceling and resubscribing — you can do this as many times as you want. Your old account information will be restored if you use the same email address.
Paramount Plus sometimes offers discounts to returning subscribers. When you go to resubscribe, check whether a promotional rate is available before you pay full price.
Contact Paramount Plus if you cannot cancel online
If the cancellation button is not showing in your account settings, or if you subscribed through a method not listed above, contact Paramount Plus customer service. Go to the Help section of your account, select Contact Us, and choose whether you want to chat with a representative, send an email, or call. Have your account email address and subscription details ready.
Customer service can cancel your subscription if there is a technical problem preventing you from canceling yourself. They can also help if you were charged after canceling or if you need to cancel a subscription purchased through a less common payment method.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will I lose my shows and movies if I cancel?
Yes. Once your subscription ends, you lose access to all Paramount Plus content. Any shows or movies you were watching will no longer be available. Your watchlist and viewing history stay in your account, so if you resubscribe later, you can find where you left off.
Can I get a refund if I just subscribed?
Paramount Plus does not offer refunds for unused time on monthly plans. If you cancel mid-month, you lose the rest of that month's access. However, if you were charged twice by mistake or charged after you canceled, customer service may issue a refund — contact them through the Help section of your account.
What if I subscribed through my cable or phone provider?
If Paramount Plus came as part of a bundle with your cable, satellite, or phone service, you must cancel through that provider, not through Paramount Plus. Call your provider's customer service or log into your account with them to remove Paramount Plus from your bundle.
Do I have to cancel before my next billing date?
No. You can cancel at any point in your billing cycle. If you cancel on the 15th of a month but your billing date is the 20th, you will not be charged on the 20th. Your access continues until the end of your current paid period, then stops.
