You can cancel Paramount Plus through your account settings, and the process takes about two minutes
To cancel Paramount Plus, sign into your account on the Paramount Plus website or app, go to your account settings, find the subscription or billing section, and select the option to cancel. You will not lose access when ready — you can watch until the end of your current billing period. Paramount Plus does not charge an early cancellation fee, so you can stop at any time without penalty.
The exact steps differ slightly depending on whether you subscribed directly through Paramount Plus or through another service like Apple, Amazon, or your cable provider. If you subscribed through a third party, you cancel through that service instead, not through Paramount Plus itself.
Key Takeaways

- You keep your access until the end of your current billing cycle, even after you cancel.
- If you subscribed through Apple, Amazon, Google Play, or a cable provider, you must cancel through that service, not through Paramount Plus.
- Paramount Plus charges no early termination fee, so there is no cost to cancelling before your next billing date.
Cancelling a direct Paramount Plus subscription on the website
Sign into your Paramount Plus account at paramountplus.com using your email and password. Click on your profile icon or account menu, usually located in the top right corner of the screen. Select "Account" or "Settings" from the dropdown menu.
Look for a section labeled "Subscription," "Billing," or "Plan" — the exact wording varies. Click on it to see your current subscription details. You should see a button or link that says "Cancel Subscription" or "Manage Subscription." Click that button. Paramount Plus will ask you to confirm the cancellation and may offer you a discount to stay; you can decline and proceed with cancelling.
After you confirm, you will see a cancellation confirmation message on screen and receive a confirmation email. Save this email for your records. Your access continues until the end of your billing period, which Paramount Plus will state in the confirmation.
Cancelling through the Paramount Plus mobile app
Open the Paramount Plus app on your phone or tablet and sign in if you are not already logged in. Tap the profile icon, usually in the bottom right corner on iOS or the top right on Android. Select "Account" or "Settings."
Tap "Subscription" or "Manage Subscription." You will see your current plan and billing date. Tap "Cancel Subscription" or a similar option. The app will ask you to confirm; tap to confirm the cancellation. You will receive a confirmation message in the app and an email to your account address.
Cancelling if you subscribed through Apple, Amazon, or Google Play
If you signed up for Paramount Plus through the Apple App Store, Amazon Prime Video Channels, or Google Play, you must cancel through that service, not through Paramount Plus itself. Cancelling through Paramount Plus will not stop the charges.
Apple: On your iPhone or iPad, open Settings, tap your name at the top, select "Subscriptions," find Paramount Plus, and tap "Cancel Subscription." On a Mac, open System Settings, click your name, select "Subscriptions," find Paramount Plus, and click "Edit" then "Cancel."
Amazon Prime Video Channels: Sign into your Amazon account on amazon.com, go to "Your Account," select "Memberships and Subscriptions," find Paramount Plus, and click "Manage Membership" then "Cancel Channel."
Google Play: Open the Google Play app on your Android phone, tap your profile icon, select "Subscriptions," find Paramount Plus, and tap "Cancel Subscription."
Cancelling if you subscribed through a cable or internet provider
Some cable and internet providers bundle Paramount Plus with their service or offer it as an add-on. If you subscribed this way, you cancel through your provider's website or by calling their customer service number, not through Paramount Plus.
Contact your provider directly — Comcast, Charter, Verizon, AT&T, or whichever company you use — and ask to cancel the Paramount Plus add-on. They will confirm your cancellation and tell you when it takes effect. You may be able to cancel online through your provider's account portal, or you may need to call.
What happens after you cancel
After you cancel, you can continue watching Paramount Plus until the end of your current billing period. If your billing date is the 15th and you cancel on the 5th, you have access through the 15th. Paramount Plus will not refund the portion of your subscription you have not used.
Your watchlist, saved shows, and viewing history remain in your account if you resubscribe later. You will not receive a refund, but you also will not be charged again after your current period ends.
Reactivating your subscription later
If you cancel and later want to resubscribe, you can sign back into your Paramount Plus account using the same email and password. Select your plan and payment method, and your subscription will restart. Paramount Plus does not charge a reactivation fee.
You may see promotional offers when you resubscribe, especially if you have been away for several months. These offers vary and are not may provide, but it is worth checking what is available before you pay full price.
