Cancel Fortnite Crew through your PlayStation Network account settings
To cancel Fortnite Crew on PS5, you stop the recurring subscription through your PlayStation Network (PSN) account, not through the Fortnite game itself. The subscription will end at the end of your current billing cycle, and you'll lose access to the monthly V-Bucks stipend and the current Crew Pass when that date arrives. Your progress and cosmetics you've already earned stay with your account.
The cancellation process takes about two minutes and requires you to have access to the email address or phone number linked to your PSN account. You can cancel from the PS5 console itself, from a web browser on any device, or through the PlayStation app on your phone.
Key Takeaways
- Fortnite Crew is a PlayStation Network subscription, so you cancel it through PSN settings, not inside Fortnite.
- Your subscription ends at the end of your current billing period, not immediately, so you keep access until that date.
- You can cancel from your PS5, from the PlayStation website, or through the mobile PlayStation app.
- After cancellation, you lose the monthly V-Bucks and Crew Pass, but keep any cosmetics or Battle Pass progress you already own.
Cancel from your PS5 console
On your PS5, go to Settings in the top menu, then select Users and Accounts. Choose Other, then Subscriptions. Find Fortnite Crew in the list of active subscriptions and select it. Press Cancel Subscription and confirm when prompted.
The system will show you the date your subscription ends and ask you to confirm the cancellation one more time. After you confirm, you'll see a message that your subscription is set to cancel. You'll receive an email confirmation to the address on your PSN account.
Cancel through the PlayStation website
Go to www.playstation.com and sign in with your PSN account. Click your profile icon in the top right corner and select Account. Choose Subscriptions from the left menu. Find Fortnite Crew and click Manage next to it, then select Cancel Subscription.
You'll see the same confirmation screen showing when your subscription ends. Complete the cancellation, and you'll get a confirmation email. This method works from any computer or phone with a web browser.
Cancel through the PlayStation mobile app
Open the PlayStation App on your phone and sign in. Tap your profile icon at the bottom of the screen, then select Subscriptions. Tap Fortnite Crew and choose Cancel Subscription. Confirm the cancellation when prompted.
The app shows the same end date and confirmation process as the website and console. You'll receive an email confirmation once the cancellation is processed.
What happens after you cancel
Your Fortnite Crew subscription remains active until the end of your current billing cycle. If you paid on the 15th of the month, you keep access until the 15th of the next month. During this time, you still receive the monthly V-Bucks and have access to the current Crew Pass cosmetics.
Once the subscription ends, you lose access to future monthly V-Bucks and the Crew Pass cosmetics rotate out. However, any V-Bucks you earned or purchased before cancellation stay in your account, and any cosmetics you already claimed remain in your locker. You can still play Fortnite normally; you just won't have the Crew benefits.
If you want to rejoin Fortnite Crew later
You can restart your Fortnite Crew subscription at any time by going back to the same subscription settings and selecting Renew Subscription or Subscribe. There's no penalty for canceling and restarting, and you don't lose your account or cosmetics.
If you rejoin in a future month, you'll get that month's Crew Pass and V-Bucks, not the ones from months you skipped. Some players cancel during months when the Crew cosmetics don't appeal to them and rejoin when a skin or item they want becomes available.
Troubleshooting if cancellation doesn't work
If you don't see Fortnite Crew in your subscriptions list, the subscription may already be canceled or may not have been set up through PSN. Check that you're signed into the correct PSN account — the one you use to play Fortnite on PS5. If you set up the subscription through a different payment method (like a credit card added directly in Fortnite), you may need to cancel it through that method instead.
If you see the subscription but the cancel button doesn't respond, try signing out of PSN completely, restarting your PS5, and signing back in. If the problem persists, contact PlayStation Support through the official PlayStation website with your account email and the date you purchased the subscription.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will I lose my V-Bucks if I cancel Fortnite Crew?
No. Any V-Bucks you earned from Crew or purchased separately stay in your account after cancellation. You only stop receiving the monthly V-Bucks stipend that comes with an active subscription.
Can I cancel mid-month or do I have to wait until my billing date?
You can cancel anytime. Your subscription ends at the end of your current billing cycle, not immediately. You keep full access and benefits until that date arrives, so there's no refund for the unused portion of the month.
What if I cancel but then want to rejoin next month?
You can restart the subscription whenever you want through the same subscription settings. There's no waiting period or penalty. You'll get the new month's Crew Pass and V-Bucks when you rejoin.
Does canceling Fortnite Crew affect my other PlayStation subscriptions?
No. Fortnite Crew is a separate subscription from PlayStation Plus or PlayStation Plus Extra. Canceling Crew doesn't change your other subscriptions or your ability to play Fortnite online.
Where do I find my cancellation confirmation?
Check the email address linked to your PSN account. PlayStation sends a confirmation email when you cancel a subscription. If you don't see it, check your spam or promotions folder, or sign into your PSN account on the PlayStation website to verify the cancellation went through.
