Cancel Paramount Plus in Three Steps
To unsubscribe from Paramount Plus, log into your account on the Paramount Plus website or app, go to your account settings, select the subscription or billing section, and choose the option to cancel. The process takes about two minutes. Your access ends at the end of your current billing cycle — you will not be charged again, but you can keep watching until that date arrives.
The exact steps differ slightly depending on whether you subscribed directly through Paramount Plus or through a third-party service like Apple, Google Play, Amazon Prime Video Channels, or Roku. If you signed up through one of those platforms, you must cancel through that same platform, not through Paramount Plus itself.
Key Takeaways
- Direct Paramount Plus subscriptions are canceled through your account settings on the Paramount Plus website or mobile app.
- If you subscribed through Apple, Google Play, Amazon Prime Video Channels, or Roku, you must cancel through that platform instead.
- Your service continues until the end of your current billing period even after you cancel, so you do not lose access when ready.
- Paramount Plus does not charge a cancellation fee, and you can resubscribe at any time.
Cancel a Direct Paramount Plus Subscription on the Website
Open a web browser and go to paramountplus.com. Sign in with your email and password. Click on your profile icon or account menu, usually located in the top right corner of the page.
Select "Account" or "Settings" from the dropdown menu. Look for a section labeled "Subscription," "Billing," or "Plan Details." Click on the option to manage or change your subscription. You will see a button or link that says "Cancel Subscription" or "End Membership." Click it and follow the prompts to confirm your cancellation. Paramount Plus will ask you why you are leaving — this is optional, but your feedback helps them improve the service.
Cancel Through the Paramount Plus Mobile App
Open the Paramount Plus app on your phone or tablet. Tap the profile icon, usually in the bottom right corner. Select "Account" or "Settings."
Tap "Subscription" or "Manage Subscription." Look for the option to cancel or end your membership. Tap it and confirm. The app will show you your final billing date before the cancellation takes effect. If you cannot find the cancellation option in the app, use the website method instead — some app versions do not display all account options.
Cancel a Subscription Through Apple, Google Play, or Amazon
If you signed up for Paramount Plus through Apple (iPhone or iPad), Google Play (Android), Amazon Prime Video Channels, or Roku, you cannot cancel through Paramount Plus. You must cancel through the platform where you subscribed.
Apple: Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad. Tap your name at the top. Select "Subscriptions." Find Paramount Plus in the list. Tap it and select "Cancel Subscription."
Google Play: Open the Google Play Store app on your Android phone. Tap your profile icon in the top right. Select "Payments and Subscriptions," then "Subscriptions." Find Paramount Plus and tap it. Select "Cancel Subscription."
Amazon Prime Video Channels: Go to amazon.com on a web browser or open the Prime Video app. Go to "Account" or "Your Account." Select "Memberships and Subscriptions" or "Manage Your Prime Video Channels." Find Paramount Plus and select "Cancel Channel."
Roku: On your Roku device, go to "Home." Select "Manage subscriptions." Find Paramount Plus and select "Cancel."
What Happens After You Cancel
You will receive a confirmation email from Paramount Plus or the platform where you subscribed. Keep this email for your records. Your account will show a cancellation date, which is the last day you can watch content.
You can continue streaming until midnight on that final date. After that, you will no longer be able to log in or watch shows and movies. If you change your mind before the cancellation date, you can resubscribe through the same method at any time. There is no penalty for canceling and no waiting period to rejoin.
Resubscribe to Paramount Plus Later
If you cancel and later want to return, you can resubscribe through the same method you originally used. Go back to paramountplus.com, your app, or the third-party platform and select the subscription plan you want. Your previous watch history and saved shows will still be there when you log back in.
Paramount Plus occasionally offers discounts to returning customers, though these are not may provide. Check your email after canceling — sometimes the service sends promotional offers to encourage you to come back.
Troubleshooting: When Cancellation Does Not Work
If you cannot find the cancel option in your account, make sure you are logged in as the account owner. If someone else created the account and added you as a user, only the account owner can cancel. Ask them to handle the cancellation, or have them change the account password so you can take over.
If you subscribed through a third-party platform and the cancel button is missing, try using a web browser instead of the app, or contact that platform's customer support. Sometimes app versions lag behind the website. If you are still stuck, contact Paramount Plus support through their website — they can confirm your subscription method and walk you through the correct cancellation steps for your situation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will I lose access when ready after I cancel?

Can I get a refund for the current month?
Paramount Plus does not refund partial months. If you cancel mid-cycle, you keep access until your billing date. To avoid being charged again, cancel before your next billing date arrives.
What if I subscribed through my cable or phone provider?
