Cancel Showtime by going to your Walmart+ account settings and removing it from your subscriptions

Showtime is bundled with Walmart+ as an add-on, not included in the base membership. To cancel it, you log into your Walmart+ account, find the Showtime subscription in your settings, and remove it. The process takes about two minutes. You will keep your Walmart+ membership — only Showtime stops.

Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle, not when ready. If you are charged again before you cancel, Walmart+ customer service can sometimes issue a refund for the unwanted charge, though this depends on how recently the charge posted. The refund will go back to your original payment method.

Key Takeaways

  • Log into your Walmart+ account on the Walmart website or app, then go to Account Settings and select Subscriptions to find Showtime.
  • Click or tap the option to remove Showtime; your Walmart+ membership continues without interruption.
  • Cancellation takes effect on your next billing date, not the same day you request it.
  • If you were charged for Showtime after you intended to cancel, contact Walmart+ support with your billing date and they can review your account for a refund.
  • You can reactivate Showtime at any time by returning to your subscriptions and adding it back without penalty.

Step-by-step cancellation on a computer

Go to walmart.com and sign in with your account. In the top right corner, click your account icon or name, then select "Account" from the menu that appears.

Look for a section labeled "Subscriptions" or "Walmart+ Membership." Click on it. You will see a list of any add-ons attached to your account, including Showtime if you have it. Next to Showtime, you will see a button that says "Manage" or "Remove." Click that button.

A confirmation screen will appear asking whether you want to cancel Showtime. Confirm the cancellation. The system will show you the date your cancellation takes effect — this is always the end of your current billing period, not the day you cancel. Write down or screenshot this date for your records.

Step-by-step cancellation on the Walmart app

Open the Walmart app and tap the account icon at the bottom right of the screen. Tap "Account" or "My Account," depending on your app version.

Scroll down to find "Walmart+ Membership" or "Subscriptions." Tap it. You will see Showtime listed if you have it. Tap "Manage" or "Remove" next to Showtime.

Confirm the cancellation when the app asks. You will see the effective date of your cancellation on the confirmation screen. The app will also send you a confirmation email to the address on file with your Walmart account.

What happens to your Showtime content after cancellation

Once your Showtime subscription ends, you lose access to the Showtime app and all Showtime content. If you downloaded episodes or movies to watch offline, those downloads will stop working after your subscription ends and the app will no longer open.

You can reactivate Showtime through Walmart+ at any time by going back to your subscriptions and adding it again. There is no penalty for canceling and restarting, and you will not lose any saved preferences or watchlist items if you return later.

If you were charged after you canceled

Contact Walmart+ customer service through the Walmart website or app. Go to your account, find the help or support section, and select "Contact Us." Tell them the date you canceled Showtime and the date you were charged. Provide your order or transaction number if you have it.

Walmart+ support can see when you requested the cancellation and whether the charge came after that date. If it did, they can issue a refund. Refunds typically post to your original payment method within 3 to 5 business days, though timing varies by your bank or credit card company. Keep your confirmation email from the cancellation as proof of when you requested it.

Difference between canceling Showtime and canceling Walmart+

Canceling Showtime removes only that add-on subscription. Your Walmart+ membership, which includes free shipping on may be able to access items, exclusive deals, and other member benefits, continues unchanged. You will still have access to all Walmart+ features and pricing.

If you want to cancel your entire Walmart+ membership instead, the process is similar: go to Account Settings, find Walmart+ Membership, and select the option to cancel the full membership. That cancellation also takes effect at the end of your billing cycle. Canceling the full membership will remove Showtime as well since it is part of the bundle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I cancel Showtime when ready or do I have to wait until my billing date?

Cancellation always takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle. You cannot cancel mid-cycle and get a refund for unused time. If you cancel on the 15th and your billing date is the 20th, you keep access until the 20th.

Will canceling Showtime affect my Walmart+ shipping benefits?

No. Showtime is a separate add-on. Removing it does not change your Walmart+ membership or any of its benefits like free shipping or exclusive prices.

What if I cannot find Showtime in my subscriptions?

If Showtime does not appear in your subscriptions list, you may not have it added to your account, or it may have already been canceled. Check your email for any Showtime billing confirmations to confirm whether you ever had it.

Can I pause Showtime instead of canceling it?

Walmart+ does not offer a pause option for Showtime. Your only choices are to keep the subscription active or cancel it. If you want to stop paying but might return later, canceling and reactivating is the way to do it.

How do I know my Showtime cancellation went through?

After you confirm the cancellation, the system displays a confirmation screen with the effective date. You will also receive a confirmation email at the address associated with your Walmart+ account. Keep that email as proof in case you need to contact support about a charge that comes after your cancellation date.
