Cancel Amazon Kids Plus through your Amazon account settings

To cancel Amazon Kids Plus, sign into your Amazon account on a computer or the Amazon app, go to Account & Lists, select Your Account, then find Memberships and subscriptions. Look for Amazon Kids+ in the list and click Cancel membership. Amazon will ask you to confirm the cancellation. Once you do, your subscription ends immediately, though your child keeps access through the end of the current billing period.

If you are using a Fire tablet or Kindle device, you can also cancel through the device itself. Open Settings, go to Apps & notifications, select Amazon Appstore, then Subscriptions. Find Amazon Kids+ and tap Cancel subscription. The process is the same — the service stops at the end of your current billing cycle.

You will not receive a refund for the current billing period, even if you cancel mid-month. Amazon does not prorate refunds for subscriptions canceled before the renewal date.

Key Takeaways

  • You cancel Amazon Kids+ through Account & Lists > Your Account > Memberships and subscriptions on any web browser or the Amazon app.
  • Cancellation takes effect immediately, but your child retains access until the end of the current billing period.
  • No refund is issued for the current billing cycle, regardless of when you cancel.
  • If you have multiple children or profiles under Amazon Kids+, canceling the subscription removes access for all of them at once.
  • You can reactivate Amazon Kids+ at any time by going back to the same menu and selecting Renew membership.

What happens to your child's content and profiles after cancellation

When Amazon Kids+ ends, your child's profiles, reading history, and saved content remain in your Amazon account. The profiles themselves do not disappear. If you reactivate the subscription later, those profiles and their history come back exactly as they were.

However, your child loses access to the curated library of books, videos, and apps that come with the subscription. Any content your child was reading or watching through Amazon Kids+ becomes unavailable. Content you purchased separately — such as individual Kindle books or movies — remains accessible through your regular Amazon account.

Canceling from a shared family account

If you manage Amazon Kids+ through an Amazon Household or Family Library, only the account owner can cancel the subscription. If you are a secondary adult on the account, you will not see the cancellation option in Memberships and subscriptions. Ask the primary account holder to complete the cancellation.

When the primary account holder cancels, all children in the household lose access to Amazon Kids+ at the same time. There is no way to cancel for one child while keeping it active for another — the subscription covers all child profiles on that account.

Removing individual child profiles without canceling the subscription

If you want to keep Amazon Kids+ active but remove one child's access, you can delete that child's profile instead of canceling the entire subscription. Go to Account & Lists > Your Account > Amazon Household, find the child's profile, and select Remove from household. That child loses access to Amazon Kids+ immediately, but other children on the account keep their access and the subscription remains active.

Removing a profile is different from canceling the subscription. The subscription continues to charge your payment method each month. This option works if you want to stop one child from using the service but keep it for siblings.

Checking your cancellation status and billing history

After you cancel, go back to Account & Lists > Your Account > Memberships and subscriptions to confirm the cancellation went through. Amazon Kids+ should no longer appear in your active subscriptions list, or it should show a status of Canceled with an end date.

You can also check your Billing history in the same section to see your most recent charge and confirm no new charges appear after your cancellation date. If you see a charge after the date you canceled, contact Amazon Customer Service with your cancellation confirmation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will my child lose access immediately after I cancel?

No. Your child keeps access through the end of the current billing period. If you cancel on the 15th of the month and your billing date is the 30th, your child can still use Amazon Kids+ until the 30th. After that date, the service stops.

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

Amazon does not issue refunds for subscriptions canceled before the renewal date. You pay for the full month regardless of when you cancel. If you cancel on the first day of your billing cycle, you still pay for the entire month.

What if I want to cancel but keep my child's reading history?

Your child's profiles and reading history stay in your Amazon account after cancellation. If you reactivate Amazon Kids+ later, all that history returns. You do not lose anything by canceling — the data remains tied to your account.

Can I cancel Amazon Kids+ if I have other Amazon subscriptions?

Yes. Amazon Kids+ is a separate subscription from Prime membership or other services. Canceling Amazon Kids+ does not affect your Prime membership, Prime Video, or any other Amazon subscriptions. Each one is managed independently.

How do I cancel if I forgot my Amazon password?

Go to the Amazon sign-in page and select Forgot your password? Amazon will send a reset link to the email address on your account. Once you reset your password and sign in, follow the normal cancellation steps through Memberships and subscriptions.
