How to cancel Paramount+ in three steps
To cancel Paramount+, log into your account on the Paramount+ website or app, go to Account Settings, select Subscription, and choose Cancel Subscription. Confirm the cancellation when prompted. Your access ends at the end of your current billing cycle — you will not be charged again, but you keep watching until that date arrives.
The process takes about two minutes. You do not need to contact customer service unless something goes wrong during cancellation. If you signed up through a third-party platform like Apple, Amazon, or Google Play, you may need to cancel through that platform instead of directly through Paramount+.
Paramount+ does not charge a cancellation fee. Your remaining subscription time is not refunded, but you can resubscribe at any time without penalty.
Key Takeaways
- Cancellation happens in your Account Settings under Subscription, and takes effect at the end of your current billing period.
- If you subscribed through Apple, Amazon, or Google Play, you must cancel through that platform, not through Paramount+ directly.
- You will lose access on your next billing date, but you can resubscribe whenever you want.
- Paramount+ does not offer refunds for unused time, but you are not charged a cancellation fee.
- If cancellation fails or you cannot find the option, contact Paramount+ support through the website or app.
Canceling directly through Paramount+
Open the Paramount+ app or go to paramountplus.com and sign in with your email and password. On the web, click your profile icon in the top right corner and select Account. On the app, tap the profile icon at the bottom right and select Account Settings.
Look for Subscription or Plan in the Account menu. Click or tap it, then select Cancel Subscription. Paramount+ will show you the cancellation date and ask you to confirm. Once you confirm, the cancellation is complete. You will receive a confirmation email.
Your account remains active until the end of your current billing cycle. If you were charged monthly, you have until the same date next month. If you were charged annually, you have until the same date next year. After that date, you will no longer be able to watch Paramount+ content.
Canceling a subscription through a third-party platform
If you signed up for Paramount+ through Apple (iTunes), Amazon Prime Video Channels, Google Play, or The Roku Channel, you must cancel through that platform, not through Paramount+ itself. Canceling only through Paramount+ will not stop the charges from your third-party account.
Through Apple: Open the Settings app, tap your name, select Subscriptions, find Paramount+, and tap Cancel Subscription. Through Amazon Prime Video: Go to Prime Video settings, select Manage Prime Video Channels, find Paramount+, and select Cancel Channel. Through Google Play: Open Google Play, tap your profile icon, select Subscriptions, find Paramount+, and tap Cancel Subscription. Through Roku: Go to Roku settings, select Subscriptions, find Paramount+, and select Cancel.
After you cancel through the third-party platform, Paramount+ will stop charging you on your next billing date. You will still have access until that date arrives.
What happens after you cancel
Once your current billing period ends, you will no longer be able to watch Paramount+ content. If you try to open the app or website, you will see a message asking you to resubscribe. Your watchlist, saved shows, and viewing history are deleted after a period of time, though Paramount+ does not publish exactly how long they keep this data.
You can resubscribe at any time by logging back into your account or creating a new one. There is no waiting period, and you will not be charged a reactivation fee. If you resubscribe within a short time, your watchlist may still be there, but this is not may provide.
If cancellation is not working
If you cannot find the Cancel Subscription option, try logging out and logging back in. Clear your browser cache if you are using the website, or uninstall and reinstall the app. Make sure you are in Account Settings, not just the main menu.
If the button still does not appear, contact Paramount+ support through the website. Go to the Help section, select Contact Us, and choose your issue. You can request a callback, start a chat, or send an email. Response times vary, but chat support is usually faster than email.
If you subscribed through a third party and cancellation is not working there, contact that platform's support instead. Paramount+ cannot cancel a subscription that was created through Apple, Amazon, or Google — only those platforms can.
Pausing instead of canceling
Paramount+ does not offer an official pause or freeze option. If you want to stop watching temporarily without canceling, your only choice is to cancel and resubscribe later. There is no penalty for doing this, and you can resubscribe the same day if you change your mind.
Some users keep their subscription active but simply do not use it, which means they continue to be charged. If you know you will not watch for several months, canceling and resubscribing later is cheaper than paying for months you do not use.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will I get a refund if I cancel mid-month?
No. Paramount+ does not refund unused time. If you cancel on the 15th of a month and your billing date is the 30th, you keep access until the 30th but receive no refund for the remaining days. You are charged for the full month when you signed up.
Can I cancel through customer service instead of online?
You can contact Paramount+ support and ask them to cancel for you, but it is faster to do it yourself through Account Settings. Support will direct you to the self-service cancellation option unless something is preventing you from accessing it.
What if I subscribed through a bundle with my phone or internet provider?
If Paramount+ came free or discounted with another service, canceling Paramount+ through your account settings will remove it from your bundle. You will no longer see it in your app or on your bill. Contact your provider if you are unsure whether Paramount+ is part of your plan.
Do I lose my account if I cancel?
No. Your account stays active and your email remains registered. You can log back in at any time to resubscribe. Your watchlist and history may be deleted after several months of inactivity, but your account itself does not disappear.
Can I cancel and get a pro-rated refund if the service is not working?
Paramount+ does not offer refunds for technical issues or dissatisfaction. If the service is broken, contact support to report the problem. If they cannot fix it and you want to cancel, you will not receive a refund, but you can cancel without penalty and try again later.
