How to cancel your Paramount Plus account

You can cancel Paramount Plus directly through your account settings on the Paramount Plus website or app, or by contacting Paramount Plus customer service. The cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle — you will keep access until that date, then your subscription stops. If you signed up through a third-party service like Apple, Amazon, or Google Play, you may need to cancel through that service instead of through Paramount Plus itself.

The entire process takes a few minutes and requires no phone call or back-and-forth with support unless you choose that route. Most people finish in under five minutes using the website or app method.

Key Takeaways

  • Cancellation through your Paramount Plus account settings is the fastest method and takes a few minutes from any device.
  • Your access continues until the end of your current billing period, so you do not lose service when ready.
  • If you subscribed through Apple, Amazon Prime Video, Google Play, or another third-party platform, you must cancel through that platform, not through Paramount Plus.
  • Paramount Plus customer service can cancel your account by phone or chat if you cannot do it yourself through the app or website.
  • Cancellation is permanent — if you want to rejoin later, you will need to set up a new subscription and may not retain your watchlist or profile settings.

Cancel through the Paramount Plus website

Log into your Paramount Plus account on a web browser. 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 to cancel your subscription — click it. Paramount Plus will ask you to confirm the cancellation and may offer you a discount to stay; you can decline and proceed with cancellation. After you confirm, you will receive an email confirming that your subscription will end on your next billing date.

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." Choose the option to cancel your subscription. Follow the prompts to confirm. You will receive a confirmation email with your final billing date. The process is the same on both iOS and Android devices.

Cancel if you subscribed through a third-party service

If you signed up for Paramount Plus through Apple, Amazon Prime Video, Google Play, Roku, or another platform, you must cancel through that service, not through Paramount Plus itself. Canceling only through Paramount Plus will not stop the charges from your third-party provider. Your payment method is linked to the third-party service, so that is where the subscription lives.

Apple: Go to Settings > [Your Name] > Subscriptions. Find Paramount Plus and tap "Cancel Subscription." Amazon Prime Video: Log in to your Amazon account, go to Your Account > Prime Video Settings > Manage Your Prime Video Subscription, and select "Cancel Subscription." Google Play: Open Google Play, tap your profile icon, select Subscriptions, find Paramount Plus, and tap "Cancel Subscription." Roku: From your Roku home screen, go to Subscriptions and select Paramount Plus, then choose "Cancel."

Cancel by contacting customer service

If you cannot cancel through the app or website, you can reach Paramount Plus customer service by phone or live chat. Visit the Paramount Plus Help Center and select "Contact Us" to find the phone number or start a chat session. Have your account email address ready when you contact them.

Customer service representatives can cancel your account when ready over the phone or chat. They may ask why you are canceling, but you are not required to give a reason. After cancellation, you will receive a confirmation email with your final access date. This route is useful if you have trouble navigating the app or website, or if you want to speak to a person.

What happens after you cancel

Your Paramount Plus account will remain active until the end of your current billing cycle. If you paid monthly, you have access until the same date next month. If you paid annually, you have access until one year from your subscription start date. After that date, you will no longer be able to log in or watch content.

Your watchlist, saved shows, and profile settings are deleted when your account is canceled. If you rejoin Paramount Plus later, you will start with a blank account. Your payment method will no longer be charged after your final billing date, and you can remove the payment method from your account if you want to.

Reactivating your account after cancellation

If you cancel and later want to rejoin, you will need to create a new subscription. You can sign up again through the Paramount Plus website or app using the same email address or a different one. Paramount Plus sometimes offers promotional rates for returning subscribers, though this varies and is not may provide.

When you rejoin, your previous watchlist and viewing history will not be restored. You will start fresh with a new account. If you subscribed through a third-party service before, you can rejoin through that same service or directly through Paramount Plus — the choice is yours.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

No. Paramount Plus does not issue refunds for partial months. Your subscription remains active until your next billing date, and you will not be charged again after that date. If you cancel on the first day of your billing cycle, you still have access for the full month.

Can I pause my subscription instead of canceling?

Paramount Plus does not offer a pause feature. Your options are to keep your subscription active or cancel it. If you want to stop paying temporarily, cancellation is the only way; you can rejoin whenever you are ready.

What if I subscribed through my cable or phone provider?

If Paramount Plus came bundled with your cable, satellite, or phone service, you cannot cancel it through the Paramount Plus app or website. Contact your service provider directly and ask them to remove Paramount Plus from your account. They will handle the cancellation on their end.

Do I need to delete the Paramount Plus app after canceling?

No. The app will straightforward stop working after your access ends. You can delete it if you want to free up space, but it is not necessary. If you rejoin later, you can log back in with your new subscription.

How do I know my cancellation went through?

Check your email for a confirmation message from Paramount Plus. It will include your final access date and confirm that no further charges will be made. If you do not receive an email within a few minutes, log back into your account and check your subscription status to confirm the cancellation was processed.
