Cancel Paramount+ in Three Steps
To cancel your Paramount+ subscription, sign into your account on the Paramount+ website or app, go to your account settings, and select the option to cancel your subscription. The process takes about two minutes. Your access continues until the end of your current billing period — Paramount+ does not cut you off when ready, and you will not receive a refund for the unused portion of your current month.
The exact location of the cancel button varies slightly depending on whether you subscribed directly through Paramount+ or through another service like Apple, Amazon, or your cable provider. If you signed up through a third party, you may need to cancel through that service instead of through Paramount+ itself.
Key Takeaways
- Direct Paramount+ subscribers cancel through the Paramount+ website or app by navigating to account settings and selecting the cancellation option.
- If you subscribed through Apple, Amazon Prime Video, Google Play, or another third-party service, you must cancel through that service, not through Paramount+ directly.
- Your subscription remains active until the end of your current billing cycle, so you can continue watching until that date arrives.
- Paramount+ does not refund unused portions of your current billing period, whether you cancel mid-month or at any other time.
Cancel a Direct Paramount+ Subscription on the Website
If you pay Paramount+ directly using a credit card or other payment method, log into your account at paramountplus.com. Click on your profile icon in the top right corner and select "Account" from the dropdown menu.
On the Account page, scroll down to the "Subscription" section. You will see your current plan listed with a button labeled "Manage Subscription" or "Cancel Subscription." Click that button. Paramount+ will ask you to confirm that you want to cancel and may offer you a discount to keep your subscription — you can decline and proceed with the cancellation. After you confirm, you will see a message stating that your subscription is set to cancel on a specific date, which is the last day of your current billing period.
Cancel Through the Paramount+ Mobile App
Open the Paramount+ app on your phone or tablet and tap the profile icon, usually located in the bottom right corner. Select "Account" or "Settings" depending on your device.
Tap "Manage Subscription" or "Subscription Settings." You will see an option to cancel your subscription. Tap it, confirm your cancellation, and the app will show you the date your access ends. The process is identical to the website method — your subscription runs through the end of your billing period and then stops.
Cancel if You Subscribed Through a Third-Party Service
If you signed up for Paramount+ through Apple, Amazon Prime Video, Google Play, Roku, or another platform, you cannot cancel through Paramount+ itself. You must cancel through the service where you originally subscribed.
Apple (iPhone, iPad, or Mac): Open Settings, tap your name, select "Subscriptions," find Paramount+, and tap "Cancel Subscription."
Amazon Prime Video: Go to your Prime Video account settings, select "Manage Your Prime Video Subscription," and choose the option to cancel.
Google Play: Open Google Play, tap your profile icon, select "Payments and Subscriptions," choose "Subscriptions," find Paramount+, and tap "Cancel Subscription."
Roku: From your Roku home screen, go to Settings, select "Subscriptions," find Paramount+, and choose "Cancel."
If you are unsure which service you used to subscribe, check your email for a receipt or confirmation message from the time you signed up. The receipt will show whether the charge came from Paramount+, Apple, Amazon, or another platform.
What Happens After You Cancel
Your Paramount+ account remains active and you can continue watching all content until midnight on your final billing date. You will not lose access mid-month or when ready after clicking cancel. After that date, you will no longer be able to log in or stream anything.
If you change your mind before your cancellation date, you can reactivate your subscription by logging back into your account and selecting the option to resume. You will be charged on your next billing date. Paramount+ does not charge a reactivation fee — you straightforward restart your subscription at the regular price.
Common Reasons Cancellation Does Not Work
If you click cancel and receive an error message, or if you cannot find the cancellation button, try logging out completely and logging back in. Sometimes the account page does not load correctly on the first attempt.
If you subscribed through a third-party service but tried to cancel directly through Paramount+, the cancellation will not go through. You must cancel through the original service. Check your email receipt to confirm where you subscribed, then follow the cancellation steps for that platform.
If you are still having trouble, contact Paramount+ support through the help section of the website or app. They can confirm your subscription status and walk you through the cancellation process.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I get a refund if I cancel mid-month?
No. Paramount+ does not refund unused portions of your current billing period. If you cancel on the 15th of a month and your billing date is the 30th, you keep access through the 30th but receive no refund for those final 15 days. You are charged for the full month regardless of when you cancel.
Can I cancel and reactivate my subscription later?
Yes. You can cancel at any time and reactivate by logging back into your account and resuming your subscription. There is no penalty or waiting period. You will be charged the regular subscription price on your next billing date after reactivation.
What if I subscribed through my cable provider?
If Paramount+ came as part of a cable or internet package, canceling the Paramount+ subscription does not cancel your cable service. Contact your cable provider directly to remove Paramount+ from your account. The provider can tell you whether removing it affects your bill or your package price.
Will I lose my watchlist and saved shows after I cancel?
Your watchlist and viewing history are tied to your account. If you reactivate your subscription later, your watchlist will still be there. However, once your subscription is fully canceled and you do not reactivate it for an extended period, Paramount+ may eventually delete your account data — contact support if you want to know the exact timeline.
How do I cancel if I forgot my password?
Go to the Paramount+ login page and click "Forgot Password." Follow the link sent to your email to reset your password. Once you log in, follow the standard cancellation steps. If you no longer have access to the email address on your account, contact Paramount+ support and they can help you regain access.
