You can cancel Paramount+ directly through your account settings or by contacting their customer service team
Cancelling Paramount+ takes about five minutes if you do it through your account. You log in, go to your account settings, find the subscription section, and choose to cancel. The service stops at the end of your current billing period — you keep access until then, even after you cancel. If you paid through a third party like Apple, Amazon, or Google Play, you cancel through that platform instead, not through Paramount+ itself.
The exact steps depend on whether you're using a web browser, phone app, or tablet, and whether you subscribed directly to Paramount+ or through another service. This guide walks you through each route so you know exactly what to do before you start.
Key Takeaways
- Direct Paramount+ subscribers cancel through the account settings on the website or mobile app, and the cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing cycle.
- If you subscribed through Apple, Amazon Prime Video, Google Play, or another third-party platform, you must cancel through that platform, not through Paramount+ itself.
- After you cancel, you retain full access to Paramount+ until your paid period ends, so you do not lose service when ready.
- Paramount+ does not charge a cancellation fee, and you can resubscribe at any time without penalty.
Cancelling a direct Paramount+ subscription on the web
If you signed up for Paramount+ directly on their website and pay them each month, use a web browser to cancel. Go to paramountplus.com and sign in with your email and password. Click on your profile icon or account menu — this is usually in the top right corner of the page.
Select Account or Settings from the menu. Look for a section called Subscription, Plan, or Billing. You should see your current plan listed with a button that says Manage Subscription, Change Plan, or Cancel Subscription. Click that button. Paramount+ will ask you to confirm that you want to cancel and may offer you a discount to stay — you can ignore this and proceed. After you confirm, you'll see a message saying your subscription will end on a specific date. That date is the last day you have access.
Cancelling a direct Paramount+ subscription on mobile or tablet
The Paramount+ app on iPhone, iPad, or Android works the same way as the website, but the menu layout is slightly different. Open the Paramount+ app and sign in if you're not already. Tap the menu icon — usually three horizontal lines or a gear icon — in the bottom right or top left corner of the screen.
Tap Account or Settings. Scroll down to find Subscription or Billing. Tap Manage Subscription or Cancel Subscription. Confirm that you want to cancel when prompted. You'll receive a confirmation message with your final access date.
Cancelling if you subscribed through Apple, Amazon, or Google Play
If you signed up for Paramount+ through the Apple App Store, Amazon Prime Video, Google Play, or another third-party platform, you do not cancel through Paramount+ itself. You cancel through the platform where you subscribed. Paramount+ cannot process the cancellation for you, and cancelling through the Paramount+ app or website will not stop the charges.
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 primevideo.com or open the Prime Video app. Go to Your Account or Settings, select Manage Your Prime Video Channels or Subscriptions, find Paramount+, and click Cancel Channel or Unsubscribe.
Google Play (Android): Open the Google Play app, tap your profile icon, select Subscriptions, find Paramount+, and tap Cancel Subscription.
What happens after you cancel
After you confirm the cancellation, Paramount+ stops charging you on your next billing date. You keep full access to all shows and movies until that date arrives. You can still read episodes to watch offline, create watchlists, and resume shows you were watching. On the day after your final billing date, you lose access and see a message asking you to resubscribe.
If you change your mind, you can resubscribe at any time. Paramount+ does not charge a fee to cancel or to restart your subscription. Your watchlist and viewing history stay saved for 10 months after cancellation, so if you come back within that window, you'll see your old progress.
Contacting Paramount+ customer service
If you cannot find the cancel button, your account is linked to someone else's payment method, or you're having trouble with the cancellation, you can contact Paramount+ directly. Visit paramountplus.com/help and scroll to the bottom to find the Contact Us link. You can start a chat with a support agent or request a callback. Have your account email and the phone number or card ending associated with your subscription ready.
Response times vary, but Paramount+ typically replies to chat requests within a few hours during business hours. If you subscribed through a third party and need help, that platform's customer service may be faster — for example, Apple Support for an App Store subscription or Amazon Support for a Prime Video channel.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I lose access when ready after I cancel?
No. You keep full access until the end of your current billing period. If your next charge date is in two weeks, you can watch for those two weeks, then lose access on day 15. Paramount+ tells you the exact final date when you confirm the cancellation.
Will Paramount+ charge me again if I cancel?
No. Once you cancel, Paramount+ stops all future charges. You will not be billed again unless you manually resubscribe. If you see a charge after cancellation, contact your bank or the payment platform you used — it may be a processing delay or an error.
Can I pause my subscription instead of cancelling?
Paramount+ does not offer a pause feature. Your options are to stay subscribed or cancel. If you want to stop paying temporarily, you must cancel and resubscribe later. There is no penalty for doing this, and your watchlist will still be there when you return.
What if I subscribed through a cable or phone provider?
Some cable and phone companies bundle Paramount+ with their service. To cancel Paramount+, contact your provider's customer service — do not try to cancel through the Paramount+ app. Your provider handles the billing and can remove it from your account.
Can I get a refund for the current month?
Paramount+ does not refund partial months. If you cancel mid-month, you keep access until your next billing date, but you do not receive money back for the unused days. To avoid a charge, cancel before your next billing date arrives.
