Cancel NFL Plus directly through the Roku channel or through your Paramount account
You can stop your NFL Plus subscription on Roku in two ways: through the Roku channel itself or through your Paramount account online. The Roku method takes about two minutes and stops the subscription when ready. The Paramount method gives you a record of the cancellation in your account settings, which some people prefer. Either way, your access ends right away — you do not get to finish out a billing period.
NFL Plus is owned by the NFL but distributed through Paramount's infrastructure. Because of this overlap, cancelling through Paramount's website sometimes works faster than the Roku app, especially if you have had billing problems. We will walk through both routes so you can pick the one that matches your situation.
Key Takeaways
- You can cancel NFL Plus on Roku by opening the channel, going to Settings, and selecting Cancel Subscription — the process takes under two minutes.
- Cancelling through Paramount.com in your account settings creates a permanent record and works if the Roku method fails.
- Your access stops when ready after cancellation; you do not keep the service through the end of a billing cycle.
- If you see a charge after cancellation, contact Paramount support with your cancellation confirmation, as refunds are handled separately from the cancellation itself.
Cancel through the Roku NFL Plus channel
Open the NFL Plus channel on your Roku device. Scroll down to the bottom of the home screen and select Settings (the gear icon). Look for Subscription or Manage Subscription — the exact label depends on your Roku software version. Select it, then choose Cancel Subscription. Roku will ask you to confirm; select Yes or Confirm. You should see a message saying your subscription is cancelled.
Write down the date and time shown on the confirmation screen. Roku does not always send a confirmation email, so this timestamp is your proof of cancellation if a charge appears later. If you do not see a confirmation message, the cancellation may not have gone through — try the Paramount method instead.
Cancel through Paramount.com if Roku cancellation fails
Go to Paramount.com and sign in with the email and password you use for NFL Plus. Click your profile icon in the top right corner and select Account. Scroll down to Subscriptions and Billing. You should see NFL Plus listed with a Cancel or Manage option next to it. Click Cancel.
Paramount will show you the cancellation date and your final billing date. Take a screenshot of this page. Unlike the Roku method, Paramount sends a confirmation email to your account address within a few minutes. This email is your official record if you need to dispute a charge later.
What happens to your NFL Plus access after cancellation
Your Roku device will no longer play NFL Plus content when ready. If you try to open the channel, you will see a message asking you to subscribe again. Any games you had saved or marked as favorites will still appear in your library, but you cannot watch them.
If other people on your Roku account were watching NFL Plus, they lose access too. Roku does not allow partial household cancellations — the subscription is tied to the device or account, not to individual users. If someone else in your home wants to keep watching, they will need their own subscription.
Refunds and billing after cancellation
NFL Plus does not refund the current billing period, even if you cancel on the first day. If you were charged this month and then cancelled, that charge is final. Refunds are handled separately from cancellation and require contacting Paramount support directly with your cancellation confirmation.
If you see another charge after cancellation, it usually means the cancellation did not process. Check your Paramount account to confirm the subscription shows as cancelled. If it still shows as active, repeat the cancellation steps. If it shows as cancelled but you were still charged, contact Paramount support with your confirmation screenshot and the charge date.
Resubscribing to NFL Plus later
You can resubscribe anytime by opening the NFL Plus channel on Roku and selecting Subscribe. Paramount will ask for payment information if you do not have a saved card. Your old account and any watchlist you created will still be there — Paramount ties subscriptions to your email address, not to continuous payment.
If you cancelled because of a billing problem or a charge you did not recognize, wait until that issue is resolved before resubscribing. Resubscribing to the same account will not fix an old charge — you have to contact support about that separately.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will I get a refund if I cancel mid-month?
No. NFL Plus charges monthly and does not refund unused time. If you cancel on day 5 of a 30-day cycle, you lose access when ready but keep paying through the end of that month. Plan your cancellation for just before your next billing date if you want to avoid an extra charge.
Can I cancel NFL Plus without cancelling Paramount Plus?
Yes. NFL Plus and Paramount Plus are separate subscriptions. Cancelling one does not affect the other. If you subscribed to NFL Plus as an add-on through Paramount, you manage it in the same Subscriptions and Billing section, but toggling it off leaves your Paramount Plus active.
What if the Roku channel says I do not have a subscription?
This usually means your subscription is already cancelled or was never active on that device. Check your Paramount account online to see if it shows as active. If it does, try cancelling through Paramount.com instead. If it shows as cancelled, you have nothing to do — the subscription is already off.
Do I need to uninstall the NFL Plus app after cancelling?
No. The app will stay on your Roku device but will not work without an active subscription. You can leave it there or remove it from your home screen — either way, you will not be charged. Uninstalling the app does not cancel the subscription, so always cancel first.
Can I cancel NFL Plus on my phone instead of on Roku?
Yes. Cancelling through Paramount.com on any device — phone, tablet, or computer — cancels the subscription for all devices, including Roku. You do not have to be on the Roku itself to stop the service.
