You can cancel Peacock through your account settings on the app or website, and the process takes about two minutes

To cancel, sign into your Peacock account, go to Account Settings, select Subscription, and choose Cancel Subscription. You will see a confirmation screen asking why you are cancelling — this is optional to answer. Once you confirm, your subscription ends when ready, though you keep access through the end of your current billing period.

The exact location of these buttons varies slightly depending on whether you are on the Peacock app, the website, or a connected device like Roku or Apple TV. The steps below cover the most common routes.

Key Takeaways

  • You can cancel anytime through Account Settings without contacting customer support or paying an early termination fee.
  • Your access continues through the end of your current billing cycle even after you cancel.
  • If you subscribed through a third-party service like Apple or Google Play, you may need to cancel through that service instead of Peacock directly.
  • Peacock does not offer refunds for the current billing period, but you will not be charged again after cancellation.

Cancelling through the Peacock website or app

Sign into your Peacock account at peacocktv.com or open the Peacock app on your phone or tablet. Tap or click the profile icon in the top right corner, then select Account Settings from the menu.

Look for the Subscription section. This shows your current plan and billing date. Select Cancel Subscription or Manage Subscription, depending on what appears on your screen. You will be taken to a page that asks why you are cancelling — you can skip this or answer it. Peacock then asks you to confirm the cancellation. Once you confirm, you will see a message saying your subscription has been cancelled.

Your access to Peacock content continues until your current billing period ends. You will not be charged again after that date.

Cancelling if you subscribed through Apple, Google, or Amazon

If you signed up for Peacock through Apple App Store, Google Play, or Amazon Prime Video, you must cancel through that service, not through Peacock itself. Cancelling only on the Peacock app or website will not stop the charges.

Apple: Open Settings, tap your name, select Subscriptions, find Peacock, and tap Cancel Subscription. Google Play: Open Google Play, tap your profile icon, go to Payments and Subscriptions, select Subscriptions, choose Peacock, and tap Cancel Subscription. Amazon Prime Video: Open the Prime Video app, go to Your Account, select Manage Your Prime Video Subscription, and choose Cancel.

After you cancel through the third-party service, you can also cancel through Peacock itself to be certain, though it is not required. This extra step ensures no charges slip through if there is a delay in the third-party service notifying Peacock.

Cancelling on a TV app or streaming device

If you use Peacock on Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, or another streaming device, the cancellation process depends on how you subscribed. If you signed up directly through Peacock (not through the device's app store), you can still cancel through the Peacock website or app on your phone — you do not have to do it on the TV.

If you subscribed through the device's app store (for example, the Roku Channel or Apple TV app store), follow the cancellation steps for that platform listed above. The TV app itself usually does not have a cancellation option. Check your device's settings or app store to confirm which method you used when you first signed up.

What happens after you cancel

You keep full access to Peacock until your current billing period ends. If your billing date is the 15th and you cancel on the 10th, you can still watch until the 15th. After that date, you lose access to all paid content, though Peacock offers a free tier with limited shows and movies that you can still watch without a subscription.

Peacock does not refund charges for the current billing period. If you cancel mid-cycle, you do not receive a partial refund for the unused days. Your subscription straightforward stops renewing on your next billing date.

If you want to pause instead of cancel

Peacock does not offer a pause or freeze option. Your choices are to keep your subscription active or cancel it. If you think you might return later, cancelling now and resubscribing when you are ready is the same cost as pausing would be — there is no penalty for restarting.

When you resubscribe, you can use the same email and password to log back in. Your watchlist and viewing history remain tied to your account, so you can pick up where you left off.
