To cancel Paramount Plus on Amazon Prime, open your Amazon subscription settings, find Paramount Plus in your list of Prime Video Channels, and select the cancel or unsubscribe option. Because Amazon handles the billing when you sign up through Prime Video, the Paramount Plus app and paramountplus.com won’t show a cancel button for this subscription. The whole process takes about two minutes, and your access continues until the end of the current billing period.
First, Confirm Amazon Is Actually Billing You
Check a recent credit card or bank statement. If the charge reads “Amazon” or “Prime Video,” you subscribed through Amazon and need to cancel there. If it reads “Paramount Plus” directly, you signed up on Paramount’s own site and would cancel there instead. People forget how they originally subscribed, and the wrong starting point wastes time.
Cancel on the Amazon Website
A desktop browser is the most reliable route.
- Go to amazon.com and sign in to the account that holds the subscription.
- Hover over “Account & Lists” in the upper right, then click “Memberships & Subscriptions.”
- Find the Paramount Plus entry. It shows your next renewal date and the monthly charge.
- Click the channel settings or manage option next to Paramount Plus, then select “Cancel Channel” or “Turn Off Auto-Renew.”
- Confirm when prompted.
The confirmation screen displays the date your access ends.1Amazon. Cancel Your Prime Video Add-On Subscription
Cancel Through Prime Video
You can also cancel from inside Prime Video, on any device:
- Open the Prime Video app or go to primevideo.com and sign in.
- Go to “Account & Settings” and select “Your subscriptions.”
- Find Paramount Plus in the list.
- Select “Unsubscribe” and confirm.
The steps work the same on phone, tablet, or computer.2Amazon Prime Video. Cancel a Prime Video Add-On Subscription
Cancel in the Amazon Shopping App
Tap the profile icon or the three-line menu, go to “Your Account,” then “Memberships & Subscriptions.” Find Paramount Plus, tap manage, and follow the cancellation prompts. The mobile layout buries these controls behind extra menus, so expect some scrolling. If the cancel button won’t appear or the page won’t load, switch your mobile browser to “Request Desktop Site.” The full desktop interface tends to be more reliable for account management.
What Happens After You Cancel
Canceling doesn’t cut you off right away. Access continues through the end of your current billing period, and the confirmation screen shows the exact end date. After that date, Amazon stops billing you and your access ends.1Amazon. Cancel Your Prime Video Add-On Subscription
If you change your mind before that end date, go back to the same subscription page and resubscribe. Your access simply continues without a break.
Refunds and Free Trials
During cancellation, Amazon sometimes offers a self-service refund. If you accept it, your cancellation takes effect immediately and you lose access on the spot instead of keeping it through the end of the cycle. If a refund isn’t offered and you want one, contact Amazon customer service directly.1Amazon. Cancel Your Prime Video Add-On Subscription
Free trials use the same steps. Cancel any time before the trial converts to a paid subscription. If you don’t take a self-service refund, trial access runs until the trial period ends. Set a reminder a day or two before the renewal date so you don’t get charged by accident.
If You Canceled Prime Itself, or Subscribed Through Apple
Prime Video Channels like Paramount Plus require an active Amazon Prime membership. Canceling Prime ends the channel subscriptions with it; individual channels don’t keep running on their own. If you only want to drop Paramount Plus, cancel the specific channel on the subscription page rather than your entire Prime membership.
One edge case: if you happened to subscribe to Paramount Plus through Apple’s in-app purchase system (which can happen on Apple TV), Amazon’s cancellation page won’t help. Cancel through your Apple ID settings at least 24 hours before the next renewal date.1Amazon. Cancel Your Prime Video Add-On Subscription
Troubleshooting
If the cancel button is grayed out or missing, switch to a desktop browser. The mobile app sometimes fails to render account management options correctly, and requesting the desktop site usually fixes it.
If you share an Amazon household, make sure you’re signed in to the specific account that originally subscribed. Each account manages its own channel subscriptions, so a household member’s login won’t show your subscription.
For technical problems where the cancellation won’t process at all, contact Amazon customer service through their help page or by phone rather than trying to block charges through your bank, which can create separate account problems.
