- Confirmation email.
- What happens after you cancel
- Amazon asks whether to stop now or keep the benefits until the end of the period you have paid for. Keeping them is almost always right, because ending early refunds nothing extra. A full refund is possible only if you have used no Prime benefit since your most recent charge — one Prime delivery in the current period and there is nothing to get back. Your Amazon account is untouched and anything you bought stays yours; only the membership ends.
