How to cancel Subscribe and Save on Amazon

You can cancel Subscribe and Save directly through your Amazon account without calling customer service or paying a penalty. Log into Amazon, go to Your Account, select Memberships and Subscriptions, find the subscription you want to cancel, and click Cancel Subscription. The cancellation takes effect immediately, and you will not be charged again.

If you have already received your most recent delivery, you can cancel right away. If a delivery is scheduled within the next few days, cancelling now will stop that shipment before it ships. Amazon does not charge you for cancellations made before the item leaves the warehouse.

Key Takeaways

  • Cancel Subscribe and Save through Your Account > Memberships and Subscriptions, not through the product page itself.
  • Cancellation is immediate and free — there are no fees or waiting periods, even if you cancel after just one delivery.
  • If a shipment is scheduled within days, cancelling now will stop it before it ships and you will not be charged.
  • You can pause a subscription instead of cancelling if you want to restart it later without setting up a new one.

Where to find your Subscribe and Save subscriptions

The fastest way to locate your subscriptions is through the Memberships and Subscriptions page. From your Amazon home page, click on Account in the top right corner, then scroll down and select Memberships and Subscriptions. This page lists every active subscription tied to your account, including Subscribe and Save orders, Prime membership, and any other recurring charges.

Each subscription shows the next delivery date and the amount you will be charged. If you have multiple Subscribe and Save items, they will all appear on this single page, so you can see at a glance which ones are active and when each one ships.

Steps to cancel a single subscription

Once you are on the Memberships and Subscriptions page, locate the Subscribe and Save item you want to cancel. Click on it to open the subscription details. You will see options including Edit Subscription, Skip Next Delivery, and Cancel Subscription. Click Cancel Subscription.

Amazon will ask you to confirm the cancellation and may offer you a discount or incentive to keep the subscription. You do not have to accept any offer — simply confirm that you want to cancel. Once you confirm, the subscription is cancelled immediately and will not appear on your next billing cycle.

What happens to pending deliveries

If you cancel before your next shipment has left the Amazon warehouse, that delivery will be stopped and you will not be charged. Amazon typically ships Subscribe and Save orders a few days before the scheduled delivery date, so cancelling as soon as you know you want to stop gives you the best chance of stopping the shipment in time.

If the item has already shipped when you cancel, you will still receive it. In that case, you can refuse delivery, return the item after it arrives, or keep it. Cancelling the subscription only stops future deliveries — it does not reverse a shipment that is already in transit.

Pausing instead of cancelling

If you think you might want to restart the subscription later, you can pause it instead of cancelling. On the subscription details page, click Skip Next Delivery. This delays your next shipment by one month without cancelling the subscription. You can skip multiple times in a row if you need to.

Pausing is useful if you have a temporary reason to stop ordering — you are traveling, you have a large stockpile, or you are waiting for a sale. When you are ready to restart, the subscription will still be there and will resume on your next scheduled delivery date. You do not have to set it up again from scratch.

Cancelling through the product page

You can also cancel from the product page itself if you are looking at an item you subscribe to. Scroll down to the Subscribe and Save section and click Manage Subscription. This takes you to the same subscription details page where you can cancel, pause, or edit the order frequency and quantity.

This route is slower if you have multiple subscriptions, since you have to find each product page separately. The Memberships and Subscriptions page is more efficient because it shows all your subscriptions in one place.

What to do if you cannot find the cancel button

If the Cancel Subscription button does not appear, the subscription may have already been cancelled or the account may have a restriction. Log out of Amazon completely, wait a few minutes, and log back in. Sometimes the page needs to refresh to show the correct options.

If the button still does not appear after logging back in, contact Amazon Customer Service through the Contact Us link at the bottom of any Amazon page. Have your order number or subscription details ready. Amazon can cancel the subscription on your behalf and confirm that no future charges will occur.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will Amazon charge me a fee to cancel Subscribe and Save?

No. There are no cancellation fees, penalties, or charges of any kind for cancelling Subscribe and Save. You can cancel after one delivery or after years of ordering — the cost is the same: nothing.

Can I cancel a subscription that is scheduled to ship tomorrow?

It depends on whether the item has already left the warehouse. If you cancel before it ships, you will not be charged and will not receive it. If it has already shipped, you will receive it but the subscription will be cancelled for future deliveries. Amazon usually ships a few days before the delivery date, so cancelling as soon as possible gives you the best chance of stopping it in time.

What if I want to restart a subscription I cancelled?

You can set up a new Subscribe and Save subscription for the same product at any time. It will not be linked to your old subscription — it will be a fresh order with a new schedule. If you think you might restart later, pausing instead of cancelling is easier because the subscription stays in your account and you can resume it without setting it up again.

Do I lose my Subscribe and Save discount if I cancel?

You lose the discount on that item once the subscription is cancelled. If you reorder the same product later without Subscribe and Save, you will pay the regular price. If you set up a new Subscribe and Save subscription for it, the discount will apply again to that new subscription.

Can I cancel all my subscriptions at once?

You have to cancel each subscription individually — there is no bulk cancel option. Go to Memberships and Subscriptions, click on each subscription you want to cancel, and confirm the cancellation for each one. If you have many subscriptions, this takes a few minutes but is still faster than calling customer service.
