Cancel Paramount+ in a Few Steps
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 process takes about two minutes. Your access ends on your next billing date — Paramount+ does not refund the current billing period, but you keep your account active until that date arrives.
The exact steps depend on whether you subscribed directly through Paramount+ or through another service like Apple, Amazon, or your cable provider. If you signed up through a third party, you must cancel through that same service, not through Paramount+ itself.
Key Takeaways
- Direct Paramount+ subscribers cancel through the Paramount+ website or app by navigating to account settings and selecting cancel subscription.
- If you subscribed through Apple, Amazon Prime Video, Google Play, or another platform, you must cancel through that platform, not through Paramount+ directly.
- Your access continues until your next billing date; cancellation does not give you a refund for the current month.
- You can reactivate your subscription at any time by logging back in and selecting a plan, even after cancellation.
Cancel a Direct Paramount+ Subscription
If you signed up directly on the Paramount+ website or app using your email and payment method, follow these steps to cancel. First, open the Paramount+ app or go to paramountplus.com and log in with your email and password.
Once logged in, tap or click the profile icon in the top right corner and select "Account" or "Settings." Look for a section labeled "Subscription," "Billing," or "Plan Details." Select the option that says "Cancel Subscription" or "Manage Subscription." Paramount+ will ask you to confirm the cancellation and may offer you a discount to stay — you can decline and proceed with canceling.
After you confirm, you will receive a confirmation email. Your subscription remains active through the end of your current billing cycle. You will not be charged again after that date.
Cancel Through Apple, Amazon, or Another Third-Party Service
If you subscribed to Paramount+ through Apple, Amazon Prime Video, Google Play, Roku, or another platform, you cannot cancel through Paramount+ itself. You must cancel through the service where you originally signed up.
Apple (iPhone, iPad, or Mac): Open the Settings app, tap your name at the top, select "Subscriptions," find Paramount+, and tap "Cancel Subscription." On a Mac, open System Settings, click your name, select "Subscriptions," find Paramount+, and click "Edit" then "Cancel."
Amazon Prime Video: Go to amazon.com, sign in, go to "Your Account," select "Prime Video Settings," find "Manage Your Prime Video Subscriptions," locate Paramount+, and click "Cancel Channel."
Google Play: Open the Google Play app on your Android device, tap your profile icon, select "Subscriptions," find Paramount+, and tap "Cancel Subscription."
Roku: On your Roku device, go to "Home," select "Subscriptions," find Paramount+, and select "Cancel."
What Happens After You Cancel
Once you cancel, your subscription will end on your next billing date. You will not be charged after that date. Until your billing date arrives, you can still watch everything in your Paramount+ account — nothing changes when ready.
If you cancel mid-month, you do not get a refund for the time remaining in that billing period. Paramount+ does not prorate refunds. If you want to avoid being charged again, make sure you cancel before your next billing date.
Reactivate Your Paramount+ Subscription
If you change your mind after canceling, you can reactivate your subscription at any time. Log back into your Paramount+ account, select a plan, and enter your payment information. Your account and watchlist will be waiting for you — nothing is deleted when you cancel.
When you reactivate, you will be charged for the plan you choose on the day you reactivate, not on your original billing date. There is no penalty for canceling and coming back later.
Troubleshooting Cancellation Problems
If you cannot find the cancel option in your account settings, make sure you are logged in with the correct email address. Some users have multiple accounts by accident. Check your email for confirmation messages from Paramount+ to see which email is tied to your subscription.
If you subscribed through a third-party service and the cancel option is not showing up there, the subscription may be paused rather than active. A paused subscription will not charge you, but you will need to resume it before you can cancel it. Check your subscription status in the third-party app or website.
If you are still having trouble, Paramount+ offers customer support through its website. You can contact them through the help section in your account settings or visit the Paramount+ support page.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will I get a refund if I cancel mid-month?
No. Paramount+ does not refund unused time in your current billing period. 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 those 15 days.
Can I cancel my subscription and keep watching?
Yes. After you cancel, you can continue watching until your next billing date. Nothing changes in your account when ready — your access ends only when your current billing period ends.
What if I subscribed through my cable provider?
If Paramount+ came as part of a cable or internet package, you cannot cancel it through Paramount+ or a third-party app. Contact your cable provider directly and ask them to remove Paramount+ from your account. They will tell you whether removing it affects your bill.
How do I know if I subscribed directly or through a third party?
Check your email for billing confirmations. If the receipt says "Paramount+" or "CBS Interactive," you subscribed directly. If it says "Apple," "Amazon," "Google," or another company name, you subscribed through that platform and must cancel there.
Can I cancel and reactivate multiple times?
Yes. There is no limit to how many times you can cancel and reactivate your subscription. Each time you reactivate, you will be charged for the plan you choose on that day.
