Cancel Paramount Plus in Three Steps

To cancel Paramount Plus, sign into your account on the Paramount Plus website or app, go to Account Settings, select Billing, and choose Cancel Subscription. Confirm the cancellation when prompted. You will lose access to the service at the end of your current billing cycle — Paramount Plus does not offer refunds for the remainder of your paid period, but you keep watching until that date arrives.

The process takes about two minutes. If you signed up through a third-party platform like Apple, Amazon, or Google Play, you must cancel through that platform instead of through Paramount Plus directly, because those services handle your billing.

Key Takeaways

  • Cancellation through the Paramount Plus website or app removes your subscription at the end of your current billing cycle, not when ready.
  • If you subscribed through Apple, Amazon Prime Video, Google Play, or another third-party service, you must cancel through that platform, not Paramount Plus.
  • Paramount Plus does not refund unused portions of your current billing period after you cancel.
  • You can reactivate your account later by signing back in and restarting your subscription without losing your watchlist or profile settings.

Canceling Through the Paramount Plus Website

Open a web browser and go to paramountplus.com. Sign in with your email and password. Click your profile icon in the top right corner and select Account from the dropdown menu.

On the Account page, click Billing in the left sidebar. Under Subscription, you will see your current plan and renewal date. Click Cancel Subscription. A popup will appear asking you to confirm — Paramount Plus may offer you a discount to stay, but clicking Cancel Subscription again will proceed with the cancellation. Your access ends on the date shown, which is the last day of your paid period.

Canceling Through the Paramount Plus App

Open the Paramount Plus app on your phone, tablet, or streaming device. Tap your profile icon at the bottom right (on mobile) or in the menu (on streaming devices). Select Account Settings or Account.

Tap Billing or Subscription. You will see your current plan and the date your next charge is due. Tap Cancel Subscription and confirm when prompted. The cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period. On some devices, the menu structure differs slightly — look for Account, Settings, or Subscription in the profile or menu section.

Canceling a Third-Party Subscription

If you signed up for Paramount Plus through Apple, Amazon Prime Video, Google Play, Roku, or another platform, that service handles your billing. Canceling through Paramount Plus will not work — you must cancel through the platform where you originally subscribed.

Apple: Open the Settings app, tap your name, select Subscriptions, find Paramount Plus, and tap Cancel Subscription. Amazon Prime Video: Go to Your Account, select Memberships and Subscriptions, find Paramount Plus, and click Cancel. Google Play: Open Google Play, tap your profile icon, select Payments and Subscriptions, then Subscriptions, find Paramount Plus, and tap Cancel Subscription. Roku: Go to Roku Home, select Subscriptions, find Paramount Plus, and select Cancel.

What Happens After You Cancel

Your account remains active until the end of your current billing cycle. If you paid for a monthly subscription on the 15th, you keep full access until the 15th of the next month. If you paid for an annual plan, you keep access for the full year you paid for.

After your access ends, you cannot watch Paramount Plus content, but your profile, watchlist, and viewing history stay saved. If you reactivate your subscription later, you will see the same watchlist and resume where you left off on shows you were watching. Paramount Plus does not charge you again unless you manually restart your subscription.

Reactivating Your Account Later

If you change your mind after canceling, you can restart your subscription at any time. Sign into paramountplus.com or open the app with your original email and password. Click Restart Subscription or select a plan to reactivate. Your watchlist and viewing history will be there.

Paramount Plus does not charge you for the time between cancellation and reactivation. You only pay when you actively restart the subscription. Pricing may have changed since you canceled, so check the current plan cost before reactivating.

Troubleshooting Cancellation Problems

If you cannot find the Cancel Subscription button, make sure you are signed into the correct account. Some accounts are managed by a family member or linked to a shared plan — if that is the case, only the account owner can cancel. Try signing out and signing back in, or clear your browser cache and try again.

If you subscribed through a third-party service and the Cancel Subscription button appears in the Paramount Plus app, ignore it and cancel through the original platform instead. Canceling in the wrong place can cause confusion about your billing status. If you are still stuck, contact Paramount Plus support through the Help section on the website — they can confirm your subscription type and walk you through the correct cancellation method.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I get a refund after I cancel?

No. Paramount Plus does not refund unused portions of your current billing period. You keep access until the end of that period at no additional charge, but you cannot get money back for the days remaining after cancellation.

Can I cancel in the middle of a yearly plan?

Yes. If you paid for a full year, you can cancel anytime, but you will not receive a refund. You keep access through the end of the year you paid for. After that date, your subscription ends and you are not charged again.

What if I cancel but still see a charge on my credit card?

Check the date of the charge. If it is dated before you canceled, it is a charge you already owed for the current billing period — that is normal. If the charge is dated after your cancellation, contact your bank and Paramount Plus support to investigate. Provide both with your cancellation confirmation date.

Do I lose my watchlist if I cancel?

No. Your watchlist, viewing history, and profile settings stay saved even after you cancel. If you reactivate your subscription later, everything will be there waiting for you.

How do I cancel if I forgot my password?

Go to paramountplus.com and click Forgot Password on the login page. Enter your email address and follow the link sent to your inbox to reset your password. Once you reset it, sign in and follow the cancellation steps above. If you do not have access to the email address on file, contact Paramount Plus support with proof of identity.
