Cancel Paramount+ in three steps through your account settings

To remove your Paramount+ subscription, log into your account on the Paramount+ website or app, go to Account Settings, select Subscription, and choose Cancel Subscription. Paramount+ will ask you to confirm the cancellation and may offer you a discount to stay — you can accept or decline. Your access ends at the end of your current billing cycle, not when ready. You will not receive a refund for the remainder of your paid period.

The exact steps differ slightly depending on whether you subscribed directly through Paramount+ or through a third-party service like Apple, Amazon, or Google Play. If you signed up through one of those platforms, you must cancel through that platform, not through Paramount+ itself, or the subscription will continue to renew.

Key Takeaways

  • Cancellations made through the Paramount+ website or app take effect at the end of your current billing period, not right away.
  • If you subscribed through Apple, Amazon Prime Video, Google Play, or another third-party platform, you must cancel through that platform or your subscription will keep renewing.
  • Paramount+ does not refund unused portions of your subscription, but you keep access until your paid period ends.
  • After cancellation, you can resubscribe at any time without penalty or loss of saved preferences.

Cancel a direct Paramount+ subscription on the website

Open a web browser and go to paramountplus.com. Sign in with the email and password you used to create your account. Click your profile icon in the top right corner and select Account from the dropdown menu.

On the Account page, look for the Subscription section. Click Manage Subscription or Change Plan. You will see your current plan, billing date, and renewal amount. Select Cancel Subscription at the bottom of this section. Paramount+ will show you a confirmation screen and may offer a reduced rate to keep your subscription active — you can ignore this and proceed with cancellation, or accept the offer if you want to stay.

Click Confirm Cancellation. You will receive an email confirming that your subscription has been cancelled. Your account will remain active until the end of your current billing cycle. After that date, you will no longer be able to watch Paramount+ content.

Cancel a direct Paramount+ subscription on the mobile app

Open the Paramount+ app on your phone or tablet. Tap the profile icon in the bottom right corner (on iPhone) or top right corner (on Android). Select Account Settings or Settings.

Tap Subscription or Manage Subscription. You will see your current plan and renewal date. Tap Cancel Subscription. Confirm your choice when prompted. You will receive a confirmation email, and your access will end on your next billing date.

Cancel if you subscribed through Apple, Amazon, or Google Play

If you signed up for Paramount+ through the Apple App Store, Amazon Prime Video, or Google Play, you cannot cancel through the Paramount+ app or website. You must cancel through the platform where you subscribed, or the charge will continue each month.

For Apple: On an iPhone or iPad, open Settings, tap your name at the top, select Subscriptions, find Paramount+, and tap Cancel Subscription. On a Mac, open System Settings, click your name, select Subscriptions, find Paramount+, and click Edit or Remove.

For Amazon Prime Video: Go to amazon.com, sign in, and go to Your Account. Select Prime Video Settings, then Manage Your Prime Video Channels. Find Paramount+ and click Cancel Channel.

For Google Play: Open the Google Play app on an Android phone, tap your profile icon, select Subscriptions, find Paramount+, and tap Cancel Subscription.

What happens after you cancel

Your Paramount+ account will remain active until the end of your current billing period. If you paid for a monthly subscription and cancelled on the 15th of the month, you keep access until the end of that month. If you paid for an annual subscription, you keep access for the full year you paid for.

After your access ends, you will not be charged again. Your saved watchlist, viewing history, and profile preferences will remain stored in your account for up to one year. If you resubscribe within that time, you can pick up where you left off.

You can resubscribe to Paramount+ at any time without any penalty or waiting period. There is no cancellation fee, and you will not lose your account information.

Avoid accidental recharges after cancellation

After you cancel, check your email for a confirmation message from Paramount+. Save this email as proof of cancellation. If you see a charge on your credit card or bank statement after your cancellation date, contact your bank or credit card company to dispute the charge and provide the cancellation confirmation email.

If you subscribed through a third-party platform and cancelled through Paramount+ instead of that platform, the subscription will renew. Check the platform where you originally signed up to make sure the cancellation went through. You can verify this by going back to your subscription settings on that platform — Paramount+ should no longer appear in your active subscriptions list.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

No. Paramount+ does not refund unused portions of your subscription. You keep access until the end of your paid billing period, but you will not receive money back for the days remaining after cancellation.

Can I pause my subscription instead of cancelling?

Paramount+ does not offer a pause feature. Your options are to keep your subscription active or cancel it. If you want to stop paying temporarily, you must cancel and resubscribe later when you are ready to watch again.

What if I cancel but still see a charge on my next billing date?

Contact your bank or credit card company and dispute the charge. Provide them with the cancellation confirmation email from Paramount+. If you subscribed through Apple, Amazon, or Google Play, also contact that platform's support team to confirm the cancellation went through on their end.

Will I lose my watchlist and saved shows if I cancel?

No. Your watchlist, viewing history, and profile settings stay in your account for up to one year after cancellation. If you resubscribe within that time, everything will be there waiting for you.

Can I cancel and resubscribe the same day?

Yes. You can cancel your subscription and when ready sign up again with no waiting period or penalty. However, you will be charged for a new subscription period right away, so cancelling and resubscribing on the same day does not save you money.
