How To Cancel Prime Video | Stop Charges In Minutes

Cancel Prime Video by ending your Prime membership or switching off auto-renew in Video Channels, then confirm the last day you can watch.

If you’re trying to cancel Prime Video, your first win is figuring out what you’re paying for. Amazon uses the same name for a few billing setups. Pick the right one and the cancel button is close by. Pick the wrong one and you can click around for ten minutes and still get billed.

This guide walks you through every common scenario. You’ll cancel the right thing, on the right page, and you’ll finish by checking the end date so you know when streaming stops.

Prime Video Billing Types To Check First

Prime Video can show up on your card in different ways. Before you cancel anything, identify what you have. It changes where you go and what you lose.

Amazon Prime membership — Prime Video is included with Prime in many regions, along with shipping perks and other benefits. Ending Prime usually ends Prime Video access tied to that membership.
Prime Video only — In some places, you can subscribe to Prime Video without a full Prime membership. This is the cleanest version to cancel because it’s one subscription.
Prime Video add-on channels — These are extra monthly charges inside Prime Video, like Starz or BritBox in some markets. Canceling the base plan will not always cancel each channel the way you expect, so check them directly.
Third-party billing — If you subscribed through Apple, Google, a mobile carrier, or a smart TV store, Amazon may show the channel but won’t show a cancel button. You cancel in the store that bills you.

Fast Clue From Your Bank Statement

Check your last charge name. “Amazon Prime” or “Prime Membership” points to a Prime plan. “Prime Video” can be a video-only plan or a channel. “Apple” or “Google” next to the charge points to third-party billing.

How To Cancel Prime Video On Any Device

You can cancel from a computer or from the Prime Video app. The screens differ a bit, but the labels stay similar. Your goal is to reach your subscription page, end the plan, then read the confirmation screen for the end date.

What You’re Canceling	Where To Cancel	What You’ll See After
Prime Video only	Prime Video Account & Settings	End date and access until that date
Amazon Prime membership	Prime membership page on Amazon	End date and what benefits remain
Prime Video channel	Your subscriptions inside Prime Video	Channel end date and renewal status
Apple or Google billed	App Store or Play Store subscriptions	Next renewal date and cancel status

Cancel A Prime Video Only Subscription

If you have a standalone Prime Video plan, cancel it inside Prime Video settings. Amazon’s own help page lays out the same route, which can be handy if your menus shift. Here’s the reference page on Cancel My Prime Video Subscription.

Cancel On A Computer Browser

Sign in to Prime Video — Use the account that gets billed. If you have multiple Amazon accounts, double-check you’re on the right one.
Open Account & Settings — Use your profile icon, then select Account & Settings.
Go to Your Account — Find the Your Account tab inside settings.
Select End Subscription — Choose the option that ends the Prime Video plan.
Confirm the cancellation — Read the confirmation screen and note the end date.

Cancel In The Prime Video Mobile App

Many versions of the app route you back to the same web account page. If the app opens a browser view, that’s normal.

Open the profile menu — Tap your profile icon.
Tap Account & Settings — This is often under a settings gear icon.
Find Your Account — Look for a section that lists your plan and billing.
Tap End Subscription — Finish the prompts until you see the end date.

What Happens Right After You Cancel

Most accounts keep access until the paid period ends. The confirmation screen should show the exact date. Take a screenshot so you can match it against your next card statement.

Cancel Prime Membership To Remove Prime Video

If Prime Video is bundled with your Prime membership, you cancel Prime on Amazon, not inside Prime Video. Amazon publishes step-by-step directions that match the current menu labels, and it’s a clean way to confirm you’re on the right page. See How to Cancel Amazon Prime.

Cancel Prime From A Desktop Or Laptop

Open your Prime membership page — Sign in to Amazon, then go to your Prime membership settings.
Find the end option — Look for wording like End Membership or End Subscription.
Follow the prompts — Amazon may show reminders about benefits and renewal dates as you click through.
Confirm the end date — Stop when you see a confirmation page with your final day of benefits.

Cancel Prime From The Amazon Shopping App

Open the profile tab — Tap the person icon in the Amazon app.
Tap Your Account — Scroll until you see account settings.
Open Prime membership settings — Look for Manage Prime Membership or a similar label.
End the membership — Follow the on-screen steps until you reach the confirmation.

Free Trial Notes

If you’re on a trial, the end screen should still show your last day. Canceling during a trial often lets you keep watching until the trial ends, but the date on your screen is what counts.

Cancel Prime Video Channels And Add-Ons

Channel add-ons are the sneakiest source of extra charges. You can cancel Prime and still have a channel renew on its own in some cases, so it’s worth checking your channel list even if you’re ending everything.

Prime Video has an add-on subscriptions screen where each channel shows its renewal date and an Unsubscribe button. Use that screen to cancel channels one by one.

Cancel A Channel On The Web

Open Account & Settings — Start from Prime Video, then open settings from your profile menu.
Go to Your subscriptions — Use the top menu inside Account & Settings.
Pick the channel — Find the add-on you want to stop.
Select Unsubscribe — Confirm until you see the channel end date.

Cancel A Channel In A TV App

Some TV versions have a subscriptions area under settings. Others send you to a web page on your phone. If you see a page that lists channel renewals, you’re in the right spot.

Open Settings — Find settings inside the Prime Video TV app.
Locate Channel subscriptions — Look for a label that mentions channels or subscriptions.
Manage your subscriptions — Select the channel and cancel it, then confirm the end date.

Canceling Multiple Channels Without Missing One

Scroll the whole list and check each line item. If you see a renewal date upcoming, that channel is still set to renew. Cancel it one by one until the list is clean.

Cancel Prime Video When Apple Or Google Bills You

If you subscribed inside the iPhone or Android app and your receipt came from Apple or Google, Amazon usually can’t cancel it from their side. You cancel in the store that bills you, then you verify the status by checking the renewal date.

Cancel In Apple Subscriptions

Open iPhone settings — Tap your name at the top.
Tap Subscriptions — You’ll see active and expired subscriptions.
Select Prime Video — If it’s a channel, it may show the channel name instead.
Tap Cancel Subscription — Confirm, then check the date Apple shows for access ending.

Cancel In Google Play Subscriptions

Open Google Play — Tap your profile icon.
Open Payments & subscriptions — Then tap Subscriptions.
Select the Prime Video item — Confirm the account that is billed.
Tap Cancel subscription — Finish the prompts, then note the renewal date.

Carrier Bundles And Smart TV Stores

If a carrier or a TV app store bills you, the cancel button will live in that provider’s account portal. Your bank statement is your best clue. Once you cancel, sign back into Prime Video and check whether the channel still shows a renewal date.

After You Cancel, Check These Three Things

Cancelling is one part. Verifying is what stops surprise charges. Spend two minutes on these checks and you’ll sleep better.

Review the end date — The confirmation screen should show it. If you missed it, go back to subscriptions and look for a renewal or end date line.
Confirm the billing source — If Apple or Google is the merchant on your receipt, verify the cancellation there as well.
Look for leftover channels — A base plan can be canceled while a channel still renews. Scan the list until you see no upcoming renewals.

Will You Lose Purchased Movies And Rentals

Ending a subscription changes streaming access to subscription titles. Purchases are tied to your Amazon account, so you can still sign in and watch purchased content from your library. Rentals still expire on their rental window once started.

What About Downloads

Downloads tied to subscription access will stop working after the end date. If you’re mid-trip, check your end date before you rely on offline viewing.

If You Still Get Charged, Use This Quick Fix List

Charges after a cancellation usually come from one of a few patterns. Work through the list in order so you don’t miss the simple cause.

Match the charge name — Compare the merchant name on your statement to the plan you canceled. A channel charge may look different from a Prime charge.
Check for another Amazon account — Households often have more than one login. Sign out, sign back in, and confirm you’re on the billed account.
Review channel renewals — Open Your subscriptions and look for any channel with an upcoming renewal date.
Check app-store subscriptions — If Apple or Google billed you, cancellation must happen there.
Check the timing — If you canceled close to renewal, the charge may already be in progress. Your confirmation end date is the tie-breaker.

How To Keep Prime Video Without Paying For Prime

In some regions you can switch from Prime to a video-only plan. On the cancellation flow, Amazon sometimes presents a downgrade option. Read each screen carefully and pick the plan that matches what you want.

How To Remove Ads Or Extra Fees

Some regions offer an extra monthly fee for ad-free viewing on Prime Video. That fee can be separate from the base plan. If you see a separate line item, manage it in the same subscriptions area where you manage channels and add-ons.

A Simple Checklist To Finish With Zero Guessing

Once you’ve canceled, do this final pass. It takes a minute and it makes your status clear.

Open Your subscriptions — Confirm the base plan shows an end date or no renewal.
Scan every channel — Cancel anything with an upcoming renewal date.
Save confirmation details — Screenshot the end date page or save the email receipt.
Set a calendar note — Add a reminder for the day after the end date to check your statement.
