The fastest way to cancel Paramount+ depends on where you signed up

If you subscribed directly through Paramount's website or app, you cancel in your account settings — usually under "Billing" or "Subscription" — and the cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle. If you signed up through a third party like Apple, Amazon, Google Play, or Roku, you cancel through that platform instead, not through Paramount. Your cancellation method matters because each platform handles the process differently and may have different refund policies.

You will not lose access when ready after you cancel. Paramount+ lets you watch until the end of the billing period you have already paid for. If you cancel mid-cycle, you do not get a refund for the unused portion — the service runs until your next billing date and then stops.

Key Takeaways

  • Direct Paramount+ subscribers cancel through their account settings on the Paramount website or app, not by calling customer service.
  • If you subscribed through Apple, Amazon, Google Play, Roku, or another third party, you must cancel through that platform's settings, not Paramount's.
  • Your access continues until the end of your current billing cycle; cancellation does not cut off your service when ready.
  • Paramount does not refund unused portions of your subscription if you cancel mid-cycle.

Cancel a direct Paramount+ subscription on the website

Log into your Paramount+ account at paramountplus.com. Click your profile icon in the top right corner and select "Account" from the menu. Look for "Subscription" or "Billing" — the exact label varies depending on your account type and region.

Click the option to manage or change your subscription. You will see your current plan and billing date. Select "Cancel Subscription" or "Cancel Plan" (the wording changes by account). Paramount will ask you to confirm and may offer you a discount to stay; you can ignore this and proceed with cancellation. Once you confirm, you will receive an email confirmation with your cancellation date.

Cancel through the Paramount+ mobile app

Open the Paramount+ app on your phone or tablet. Tap your profile icon (usually in the bottom right corner on iOS or top left on Android). Select "Account" or "Settings." Look for "Subscription" or "Billing" and tap it.

Tap "Manage Subscription" or "Cancel Subscription." Follow the on-screen prompts to confirm. The app will show you the date your access ends. You will also receive an email confirmation from Paramount.

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

Apple (iPhone, iPad, or Mac): Open the Settings app, tap your name at the top, select "Subscriptions," find Paramount+ in the list, and tap "Cancel Subscription." On a Mac, open System Settings, click your name, select "Subscriptions," and cancel from there.

Amazon Prime Video: Log into your Amazon account on a web browser, go to "Your Account" and select "Prime Video Settings." Find Paramount+ under "Manage Your Prime Video Channels" and click "Cancel Channel." On the Prime Video app, go to your profile, select "Subscriptions," find Paramount+, and tap "Cancel."

Google Play (Android): Open the Google Play Store app, tap your profile icon, select "Subscriptions," find Paramount+, and tap "Cancel Subscription."

Roku: On your Roku device, go to "Home," select "Subscriptions," find Paramount+, and select "Manage Subscription" or "Cancel." You can also log into your Roku account online and cancel through the account settings there.

What happens after you cancel

Your Paramount+ access remains active until the end of your current billing period. If your billing date is the 15th and you cancel on the 5th, you can still watch until the 15th. After that date, you will not be able to log in or stream content.

Paramount does not send you a reminder before your access ends. If you change your mind before your cancellation date, you can resubscribe at any time through the same method you originally used. Your watchlist and viewing history will be saved for 10 months if you return.

Troubleshooting cancellation problems

If you cannot find the cancellation option in your account settings, check that you are logged in to the correct account. Some users have multiple Paramount+ accounts without realizing it. Log out completely, clear your browser cache, and log back in to the account you want to cancel.

If you subscribed through a third party and the cancellation option is not visible, the issue is usually with that platform's app or website, not Paramount. Try canceling on a web browser instead of the mobile app, or contact the third-party platform's support team. Paramount cannot cancel a subscription that was purchased through another company.

If you were charged after cancellation, contact Paramount+ support through the app or website. Have your confirmation email from the cancellation ready. If you subscribed through a third party, contact that platform's support instead.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get a refund if I cancel mid-cycle?

No. Paramount+ does not refund unused portions of your subscription. Your access runs until the end of your current billing period, and that is the only refund window. If you were charged in error or after you already canceled, contact Paramount support with your confirmation email.

What if I subscribed through a bundle or promotional offer?

If you have Paramount+ as part of a bundle (like Amazon Prime Video Channels or Apple One), canceling Paramount+ removes only that service from your bundle. Your other services continue. If you subscribed through a promotional offer, cancellation ends the promotion and you will be charged the regular price if you resubscribe later.

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

Your watchlist and viewing history stay saved for 10 months after cancellation. If you resubscribe within that window, your data will be there. After 10 months, Paramount deletes the information.

How do I cancel if I forgot my password?

Use the "Forgot Password" link on the Paramount+ login page to reset it. You will receive an email with a reset link. Once you log back in, follow the cancellation steps for your account type. If you subscribed through a third party, reset your password through that platform instead.

Can I pause my subscription instead of canceling?

Paramount+ does not offer a pause or freeze option. Your only choices are to keep your subscription active or cancel it. If you want to stop paying temporarily, you must cancel and resubscribe later.
