Cancel Paramount Plus on the Web or Mobile App
To cancel Paramount Plus, log into your account on the Paramount Plus website or open the mobile app, go to your account settings, and select the option to manage your subscription. The exact wording and location varies slightly between the web version and the app, but both routes lead to the same cancellation page. You will see your current plan, billing date, and a button or link to cancel — click it, and the system will ask you to confirm.
The cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle, not when ready. If you pay monthly and your next charge is scheduled for the 15th, you will keep access until the 15th arrives. If you cancel on the 10th of a monthly cycle, you have five more days of service. Paramount Plus does not refund partial months, so cancelling mid-cycle means you lose the unused portion of that payment.
If you subscribed through a third-party platform — Apple App Store, Google Play, Amazon Prime Video Channels, or The Roku Channel — you must cancel through that platform, not through Paramount Plus itself. Cancelling in the Paramount Plus app will not work if your subscription is tied to one of these services.

Cancel Through Apple, Google Play, or Amazon
If you subscribed to Paramount Plus through the Apple App Store, open the App Store app on your device, tap your profile icon in the top right, select Subscriptions, find Paramount Plus, and tap Manage. From there, choose Cancel Subscription and confirm. The process is the same whether you use an iPhone, iPad, or Mac.
For Google Play, open the Google Play app, tap your profile icon, go to Payments and Subscriptions, select Subscriptions, find Paramount Plus, and tap Cancel Subscription. Confirm the cancellation when prompted. This works on any Android phone or tablet where you signed in with your Google account.
If you subscribed through Amazon Prime Video Channels, log into your Amazon account on a web browser, go to Your Account, select Prime Video Settings, choose Manage Prime Video Channels, find Paramount Plus, and click Cancel Channel. You can also manage this through the Prime Video app by going to Account and then Subscriptions.
Cancel Through Roku or Other Platforms
If you subscribed through The Roku Channel, log into your Roku account on the Roku website or through your Roku device, navigate to your account settings, find Subscriptions or Manage Subscriptions, locate Paramount Plus, and select Cancel or Remove. The exact steps depend on whether you are using a Roku TV, Roku streaming device, or the Roku website.
Some users also subscribe through cable or satellite providers that bundle Paramount Plus with their service. If Paramount Plus came as part of your cable package, you cannot cancel it separately — you would need to contact your cable provider to remove that channel from your plan. Check your billing statement or contact your provider's customer service to confirm whether Paramount Plus is bundled or standalone.
What Happens After You Cancel
Once you cancel, your access ends on your final billing date. You will no longer be able to stream Paramount Plus content after that date. Your account and watchlist remain saved for 12 months, so if you decide to restart your subscription within that year, your saved shows and viewing history will still be there.
If you cancel and then want to restart before the 12-month window closes, you can log back in and reactivate your subscription using the same payment method or a different one. Paramount Plus does not charge a reactivation fee — you straightforward resume paying the regular monthly or annual rate.
Cancellation Timing and Billing
Paramount Plus bills on the same date each month or year, depending on your plan. If you have a monthly subscription and your billing date is the 20th of each month, cancelling on the 5th means you keep access through the 19th. Cancelling on the 21st means you have already been charged for the next month, and you keep access through the 20th of the following month.
There is no penalty for cancelling early, and Paramount Plus does not offer prorated refunds for unused time. If you want to avoid being charged again, cancel before your next billing date arrives. You can check your next billing date in your account settings under Subscription or Billing.
If You Cannot Find the Cancel Button
If you are logged into your Paramount Plus account but cannot locate the cancellation option, try these steps: on the website, go to your profile icon in the top right corner, select Account, then Subscription, and look for Manage Subscription or Cancel Subscription. On the mobile app, tap your profile icon, select Account Settings, then Subscription, and look for the same options.
If the button still does not appear, your subscription may be managed through a third-party platform like Apple or Amazon, even if you are using the Paramount Plus app. In that case, you need to cancel through the platform where you originally signed up, not through Paramount Plus itself. Check your email receipts to see which service charged you for your subscription.
If you are still stuck, Paramount Plus offers customer support through its website. You can contact them through the Help section, though response times vary. Having your account email and subscription details ready will speed up the process.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I get a refund if I cancel mid-month?
No. Paramount Plus does not refund unused portions of your billing cycle. If you cancel on the 10th of a monthly cycle and your next charge is on the 20th, you lose the payment for those 10 unused days. You keep access until the 20th, but no money is returned.
Can I pause my subscription instead of cancelling?
Paramount Plus does not offer a pause feature. You can only cancel or keep your subscription active. If you want to stop paying temporarily, you must cancel and then restart when you are ready, though you will be charged the full monthly or annual rate when you restart.
What happens to my watchlist after I cancel?
Your account and watchlist are saved for 12 months after cancellation. If you restart your subscription within that year, your saved shows and viewing history will still be there. After 12 months of inactivity, your account may be deleted.
How long does it take for cancellation to go through?
Cancellation is when ready once you confirm it. Your access ends on your next billing date, not right away. If your billing date is in five days, you have five more days of service. The cancellation itself processes when ready, but your access window stays open until that date.
Can I cancel over the phone?
Paramount Plus does not have a phone line for cancellations. You must cancel through your account settings on the website or app, or through the third-party platform where you subscribed. If you have trouble with the online process, contact Paramount Plus support through the Help section on their website.
