How to cancel Paramount+ on your account

To cancel Paramount+, log into your account on the Paramount+ website or app, go to your account settings, find the subscription section, and select the option to cancel. The exact path depends on whether you subscribed directly through Paramount+ or through another service like Apple, Amazon, or your cable provider — each has a different cancellation process.

If you subscribed directly through Paramount+, you can cancel through the website (paramountplus.com) or the mobile app. Log in, tap your profile icon, select Account, then Subscription, and look for a Cancel Subscription button. Paramount+ will usually ask why you're leaving and may offer a discount to stay, but you can decline and proceed with cancellation.

If you subscribed through a third-party service — Apple App Store, Google Play, Amazon Prime Video Channels, or a cable provider — you must cancel through that service, not through Paramount+ itself. Cancelling through Paramount's website won't work if your payment method is tied to another platform.

Key Takeaways

  • Direct Paramount+ subscriptions cancel through your account settings on the website or app; third-party subscriptions cancel through the platform you used to sign up.
  • Your access ends immediately after cancellation, though some third-party services may let you keep access through the end of your billing cycle.
  • Paramount+ does not refund partial months, but third-party services have their own refund policies.
  • If you subscribed through a cable provider bundle, cancelling Paramount+ alone does not cancel your cable service.

Cancelling a subscription through Apple, Google, or Amazon

If you signed up for Paramount+ through the Apple App Store, you cancel through Apple's settings, not Paramount's. On an iPhone or iPad, open Settings, tap your name, select Subscriptions, find Paramount+, and tap Cancel Subscription. On a Mac, open System Settings, click your name, select Subscriptions, find Paramount+, and click Cancel.

For Google Play, open the Google Play app on your Android device, tap your profile icon, select Manage Subscriptions, find Paramount+, and tap Cancel Subscription. You can also cancel through a web browser at play.google.com by going to Manage Subscriptions.

If you subscribed through Amazon Prime Video Channels, log into your Amazon account, go to Your Account, select Memberships and Subscriptions, find Paramount+, and click Cancel Channel. Amazon typically lets you keep access through the end of your current billing period even after you cancel.

Cancelling through a cable or internet provider

If Paramount+ came bundled with your cable, satellite, or internet service, you cancel it through your provider's website, app, or customer service line. Call your provider's support number or log into your account online and look for a section on add-ons or premium channels. Removing Paramount+ from your bundle does not affect your main service.

Some providers include Paramount+ free for a limited time, then charge a monthly fee after the trial ends. Check your bill or account settings to see whether you're in a free period or a paid subscription. If you're being charged and didn't intend to be, contact your provider to dispute the charge — they may refund it if you cancel within a certain window.

What happens to your account after cancellation

Once you cancel, your access to Paramount+ content stops immediately if you subscribed directly. You will not be able to stream shows or movies, and your watchlist and viewing history are deleted after a set period (usually 12 months). If you resubscribe later, you start fresh with a new account.

If you cancelled through a third-party service like Amazon Prime Video Channels, you may retain access through the end of your current billing cycle. Check the cancellation confirmation email to see when your access actually ends — it is not always the same day you cancel.

Paramount+ does not issue refunds for partial months. If you cancel mid-cycle, you lose access to the remainder of that month's payment with no credit toward future service.

Pausing instead of cancelling

Paramount+ does not offer an official pause or suspension feature. If you want to stop paying temporarily without losing your account, your only option is to cancel and resubscribe later. When you resubscribe, you will need to set up your account again, though Paramount+ may remember some of your preferences if you use the same email address.

Some third-party services do offer pause options. For example, if you subscribed through Amazon Prime Video Channels, you may be able to pause the subscription for a limited time without fully cancelling. Check your third-party service's policies before cancelling if you think you might return soon.

Dealing with billing issues after cancellation

If you are still being charged after you cancel, the charge may come from a different source than you think. Check your billing statement to see whether the charge is from Paramount+, Apple, Google, Amazon, or your cable provider. Contact the company that actually charged you, not Paramount+, to dispute the fee.

Keep your cancellation confirmation email as proof that you cancelled. If a charge appears after cancellation, reply to that email or contact the service's support team with the confirmation number. Most services will refund an erroneous charge if you can show you cancelled before the charge date.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Paramount+ does not refund partial months for direct subscriptions. If you subscribed through a third-party service, that service's refund policy applies — some offer prorated refunds, others do not. Check your third-party service's terms or contact their support team to ask.

Will cancelling Paramount+ cancel my other subscriptions?

No. If Paramount+ was bundled with another service like Amazon Prime Video or a cable package, cancelling Paramount+ alone removes only that channel. Your other services continue unless you cancel them separately.

What if I forgot which service I subscribed through?

Check your bank or credit card statement for the charge. It will show whether the payment came from Paramount+, Apple, Google, Amazon, or your cable provider. That is the service you need to contact to cancel. You can also log into Paramount+ and check your account settings — it usually shows your payment method.

Can I cancel and resubscribe to get a promotional rate?

Paramount+ does not may provide that promotional rates apply to returning customers. You may be offered a discount when you resubscribe, but there is no way to know in advance. If you are considering cancelling to get a better rate, contact Paramount+ support first — they sometimes offer discounts to existing subscribers without requiring cancellation.

How long does it take for cancellation to take effect?

For direct Paramount+ subscriptions, cancellation is immediate — you lose access right away. For third-party services, access may continue through the end of your billing cycle. Check your cancellation confirmation to see the exact date your access ends.
