Cancel Paramount+ Directly Through the Roku Channel Store

The fastest way to cancel Paramount+ on Roku is through the Roku Channel Store, where you manage your subscription. Open the Roku home screen, go to Roku Channel Store, select Subscriptions, find Paramount+ in your active subscriptions list, and select Cancel Subscription. The system will ask you to confirm the cancellation. Once you confirm, your subscription ends at the end of your current billing cycle—you keep access until that date, then the app stops working.

This method works whether you signed up for Paramount+ through Roku or through the Paramount+ app itself. Roku handles the cancellation on their end, and Paramount+ receives notice within a few hours. You should receive a confirmation email from either Roku or Paramount+ within 24 hours.

If you cannot find Subscriptions in the Roku Channel Store, your Roku model may use an older interface. In that case, scroll to Paramount+ in your app list, press the Options button (the star icon on most remotes), and look for a subscription or account option in the menu that appears.

Key Takeaways

  • Go to Roku Channel Store, select Subscriptions, find Paramount+, and choose Cancel Subscription to end your account through Roku.
  • Your access continues until the end of your current billing cycle, even after you cancel.
  • If you signed up through the Paramount+ app instead of Roku, you may need to cancel through Paramount's website or the app itself.
  • Confirmation of cancellation arrives by email within 24 hours, and you can reactivate the subscription later if you change your mind.
  • Removing the Paramount+ app from your Roku does not cancel the subscription—you must cancel through the Roku Channel Store or Paramount directly.

Cancel Through the Paramount+ App or Website If You Signed Up There

If you created your Paramount+ account directly through the Paramount+ app or website rather than through Roku, you need to cancel through Paramount, not through Roku. Open the Paramount+ app on your Roku, go to Account Settings, and look for a subscription or billing section. From there, you can cancel your subscription directly.

Alternatively, visit paramountplus.com on a computer or phone, sign in with your account, go to Account, select Subscription, and choose Cancel Subscription. This method gives you the same result: your access ends at the end of your current billing period.

The difference matters because Roku and Paramount+ keep separate billing records. If you cancel through Roku but signed up through Paramount, Paramount may not receive the cancellation notice, and you could be charged again. If you are unsure which way you signed up, try canceling through Paramount's website first—it is the safest route.

What Happens After You Cancel

After you cancel, you retain full access to Paramount+ on your Roku until your current billing cycle ends. If you paid for a monthly subscription on the 15th, you can watch until the 15th of next month. If you paid for a yearly subscription, you keep access for the full remaining year. This grace period applies whether you cancel through Roku or through Paramount.

Once your access expires, the Paramount+ app remains on your Roku, but it will not open or will ask you to sign in again. You can reinstall it later if you decide to resubscribe. Your watch history and saved shows are tied to your Paramount+ account, so if you reactivate within a few months, you may see your previous data again—though Paramount does not may provide this.

You will not receive a refund for the portion of your billing cycle you do not use. Paramount+ and most streaming services do not prorate cancellations, so if you cancel on the first day of a monthly cycle, you lose the rest of that month's payment.

Troubleshooting If the Cancel Option Does Not Appear

If you navigate to Subscriptions in the Roku Channel Store and Paramount+ does not appear, the subscription may already be canceled, or it may be linked to a different Roku account. Check that you are signed into the correct Roku account—if you have multiple people using the same Roku, each person has their own account and subscriptions.

If Paramount+ appears but has no Cancel option, try signing out of the Paramount+ app completely, then signing back in. Sometimes the app cache prevents the cancellation menu from loading. Restart your Roku by unplugging it for 30 seconds, then plug it back in and try again.

If the problem persists, contact Paramount+ support directly through their website or the app. They can confirm whether the subscription is active and cancel it manually if the app interface is not working. Have your account email and the last four digits of your payment method ready when you contact them.

Removing the App Does Not Cancel Your Subscription

Deleting the Paramount+ app from your Roku does not cancel your subscription. The app is just the software that lets you watch; the subscription is a separate billing agreement between you and Paramount+ (or you and Roku, depending on where you signed up). If you delete the app without canceling the subscription first, you will continue to be charged every month.

Always cancel through the Roku Channel Store or Paramount's website before removing the app. Once the subscription is canceled, you can safely delete the app to free up space on your Roku. If you accidentally deleted the app without canceling, reinstall it, sign in, and cancel through the proper method.

Reactivating Your Subscription Later

If you change your mind after canceling, you can reactivate Paramount+ on your Roku at any time. Go back to the Roku Channel Store, find Paramount+, and select it to restart your subscription. You will be charged when ready for the new billing cycle. Your watch history may or may not be restored depending on how long you have been away—Paramount typically keeps account data for several months but does not may provide it.

Reactivating through Roku is usually faster than signing up as a new customer, because Roku already has your payment method on file. If you signed up through Paramount originally, you can reactivate through their website or app instead.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I get a refund if I cancel in the middle of my billing cycle?

No. Paramount+ does not refund unused portions of your subscription. If you cancel on day one of a monthly cycle, you lose the rest of that month's payment. You keep access until the end of the cycle, but no money is returned. Plan your cancellation for the end of your billing cycle if you want to avoid wasting money.

Can I cancel Paramount+ on Roku if I signed up on my phone?

It depends on how you signed up. If you signed up through the Paramount+ app or website, you must cancel through Paramount, not through Roku. If you signed up through the Roku Channel Store on your phone, you can cancel through Roku. When in doubt, cancel through Paramount's website—it works regardless of where you originally signed up.

What if I share my Roku with family members?

Each person on your Roku has their own account and subscriptions. If you cancel Paramount+ on your account, it stops working for you but may still work for other people on the Roku who have their own active subscriptions. If you want to remove it for everyone, make sure all household members have canceled their own subscriptions.

How long does it take for Paramount+ to stop working after I cancel?

Paramount+ stops working at the end of your current billing cycle, not when ready. If you cancel on the 10th and your cycle ends on the 20th, you have access until the 20th. After that date, the app will not open or will ask you to sign in again.

Can I cancel Paramount+ through my credit card company instead?

You can ask your credit card company to block charges from Paramount+, but this is not the same as canceling the subscription. Paramount+ may flag your account as delinquent, and if you reactivate later, you might owe back payments. Always cancel through Roku or Paramount directly to avoid billing problems.
