Cancel Paramount+ directly through your account settings

You can cancel your Paramount+ subscription at any time by logging into your account and navigating to your subscription settings. The process takes about two minutes and requires no phone call or email to customer service.

Go to paramountplus.com and sign in with your email and password. Click on your profile icon in the top right corner, then select "Account" from the dropdown menu. Under "Subscription," you'll see your current plan and a "Manage Subscription" or "Cancel Subscription" button. Click it, then confirm the cancellation on the next screen. Your access ends at the end of your current billing cycle—you won't lose service when ready.

If you signed up through a third-party platform like Apple, Amazon Prime Video, or The Roku Channel, you must cancel through that platform instead, not through Paramount+ directly. Canceling on the Paramount+ website won't work if your subscription is bundled with another service.

  • If you subscribed through Apple, Amazon, Roku, or another third-party service, you must cancel through that platform, not through Paramount+ directly.

  • Paramount+ does not charge a cancellation fee or require advance notice.

Canceling a subscription bundled with another service

If you signed up for Paramount+ as part of a bundle—such as through Amazon Prime Video Channels, Apple TV Channels, or Roku—you need to cancel through that platform's settings, not through Paramount+ itself.

Apple TV Channels: Open the Apple TV app, go to Account > Subscriptions, find Paramount+, and tap "Cancel Subscription." On a web browser, visit tv.apple.com, click your profile, select "Account," then manage your subscriptions.

Amazon Prime Video Channels: Sign into your Amazon account, go to Your Account > Prime Video > Manage Your Prime Video Channels, find Paramount+, and click "Cancel Channel." You keep your Prime membership; only the Paramount+ add-on is removed.

Roku: On your Roku device, go to Home > Manage subscriptions, select Paramount+, and choose "Cancel." On the Roku website, sign in, go to Subscriptions, and cancel from there.

What happens after you cancel

Your Paramount+ account remains active until the end of your current billing cycle. If you paid for a monthly subscription on the 15th, you can watch until the 15th of next month. If you paid for an annual plan, you have access until one year from your payment date.

After your access ends, you lose the ability to stream any content on Paramount+. Your watch history, saved shows, and profile settings are deleted after a set period (typically 12 months), though Paramount+ does not publicly specify an exact timeline. If you reactivate your subscription later, you'll start fresh with a new profile.

You won't be charged again after cancellation. No refunds are issued for unused time in your current billing cycle, whether you cancel on day one or day 29 of a monthly plan.

Reactivating your Paramount+ subscription

If you change your mind after canceling, you can restart your subscription at any time by logging back into paramountplus.com with your original email and password. Select a plan—the same options available before cancellation will be offered again.

You'll be charged on the day you reactivate, and your new billing cycle begins that day. There is no penalty or waiting period for reactivating; you can cancel and restart as often as you want.

Canceling through customer service

You don't need to contact Paramount+ to cancel, but if you prefer to speak with someone or run into technical problems with the self-service cancellation, you can reach customer support. Visit the Paramount+ Help Center at help.paramountplus.com and select "Contact Us" to find phone, email, or chat options. Response times vary depending on the method you choose.

Have your account email and the phone number or payment method associated with your subscription ready when you contact them. Customer service can process the cancellation when ready, though your access will still end at the close of your current billing cycle, not right away.

Removing payment information after cancellation

Canceling your subscription does not automatically remove your credit card or payment method from your Paramount+ account. If you want to delete your payment information, log into your account, go to Account > Billing, and remove the card on file. This step is optional but recommended if you don't plan to reactivate.

Removing your payment method does not affect your access during the remainder of your current billing cycle. It only prevents future charges if you accidentally reactivate or if Paramount+ attempts to renew your subscription.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I get a refund if I cancel mid-month?

No. Paramount+ does not issue refunds for unused time in your current billing cycle. Your subscription remains active until the end of that cycle, so you can continue watching until then, but you won't receive money back for the days you don't use after canceling.

Can I pause my subscription instead of canceling?

Paramount+ does not offer a pause feature. Your options are to keep your subscription active or cancel it. If you want to stop paying temporarily, canceling and reactivating later is the only way to do that.

What if I subscribed through my cable or phone provider?

If Paramount+ came bundled with your cable, satellite, or phone service plan, you need to contact that provider to remove it from your account. Call your provider's customer service line or log into your account on their website to manage add-ons and subscriptions.

Do I lose my saved shows and watch history when I cancel?

Your saved shows and watch history are deleted after your account is inactive for a period of time, typically around 12 months. Paramount+ does not publicly specify the exact timeline, but reactivating your subscription before that period ends may restore your data.

Can I cancel my subscription on the Paramount+ mobile app?

The mobile app does not have a built-in cancellation option. You must cancel through the website at paramountplus.com or through the third-party platform where you subscribed (Apple, Amazon, Roku, etc.). This is a common limitation across streaming services.
