Paramount+ is frequently bundled with cable/satellite TV packages or included through other streaming services. If you signed up through one of these, you won't see a cancel option in your Paramount+ account — you'll need to cancel through the original provider instead.

Paramount+-specific things to know

Paramount+ subscriptions can work differently depending on your plan or how you signed up. These tips cover common edge cases.

Showtime plans may redirect to Showtime
If you have Paramount+ with Showtime, you might be redirected to the Showtime cancellation flow instead of the standard Paramount+ process.
Live TV add-on cancels separately
The Live TV upgrade is a separate add-on that may need to be cancelled independently from your base Paramount+ subscription.
Free trial users get charged immediately
Unlike some services, cancelling during your free trial ends access immediately rather than letting you use the remaining trial period.

Before you cancel, keep this in mind

These details can affect your cancellation timing or whether it goes through properly.

1. Check who's actually billing you

Look at your credit card or bank statement. If it says Apple, Google, or your TV provider instead of Paramount+, you'll need to cancel through them.

2. Your access continues until the billing period ends

You'll keep your Paramount+ access until your current subscription period expires, whether that's monthly or annually.

3. Deleting the app doesn't cancel your subscription

Removing the Paramount+ app from your device won't stop the charges. You need to actively cancel through your account or billing provider.

Alternatives to cancelling your subscription

If you're mainly concerned about cost or not using it enough, you might be able to downgrade or share instead of cancelling completely.

Downgrade your Paramount+ plan

Switch to the Essential plan if you currently have Paramount+ with Showtime. You'll lose ad-free viewing and live TV but keep the core content library.

  • Essential ($4.99/month) - With ads

  • Essential ($9.99/month) - No ads

  • With Showtime ($11.99/month) - Includes Showtime content

Switch Your Billing Cycle

Switch from monthly to annual billing to save about 16% on your subscription cost.

Save about $20 per year

Check for Bundles

Paramount+ is often included in streaming bundles or cable packages that might offer better value than standalone subscriptions.

  • Walmart+ membership includes Paramount+ Essential

  • Many cable and satellite TV packages

  • Student discounts through SheerID verification
