How to cancel Netflix
Opens Netflix's own cancellation page. You will need to be signed in to your Netflix account.
How are you billed?
Netflix can be cancelled direct, Google Play, Amazon and Roku — and the steps are completely different. Check the last charge on your statement if you are not sure.
Cancelling Netflix directly
About 3 minutes · Easy
Sign in at netflix.com
Open Account
Via the profile menu, top right
Select Cancel Membership
Confirm cancellation
- Notice period
- None — cancelling takes effect straight away.
- How you will know it worked
- Confirmation email.
- What happens after you cancel
- You keep watching to the end of the period you have already paid for, and Netflix does not refund the remainder. Your profiles, viewing history and game saves are kept for a while rather than wiped, so if you come back reasonably soon everything is where you left it and you simply pick Restart Your Membership when you sign in. That convenience cuts both ways: anyone who still knows your password can restart the account and start the billing again. If other people have had access, change the password at netflix.com/password on your way out.

Cancelling Netflix through Google Play
About 3 minutes · Easy
Open the Play Store, tap your profile, then Payments & subscriptions
Tap Subscriptions and select the app
Tap Cancel subscription and confirm
- Notice period
- None — cancelling takes effect straight away.
- How you will know it worked
- Confirmation email.
- What happens after you cancel
- You keep access until the end of the period you have already paid for. Google Play does not refund the remainder, and the subscription shows as cancelled with its end date until then. Cancelling here stops Google charging you; it does not close your account with the service or delete anything in it. A refund, if you want one, is requested through Google Play — and only within a short window, after which Google sends you to the developer.

Cancelling Netflix through Amazon
About 5 minutes · Medium
Open Your Memberships & Subscriptions on Amazon
Find the subscription and select Manage subscription
Choose to end the subscription and confirm
- Notice period

- How you will know it worked
- Confirmation email.
- What happens after you cancel
- Access runs to the end of the current billing period and Amazon shows you that date when you confirm — write it down, because it is the day to check your statement. Nothing is refunded for the unused part. This ends the subscription only: your Amazon account, and your account with the service itself, are both untouched.

- What happens after you cancel
- The channel keeps working until the end of the period you have paid for, then stops billing. Roku does not refund the remainder. The channel stays installed on your device and your account with the service still exists — cancelling the Roku subscription only ends Roku's side of the payment.
