Step-by-Step: Cancel Amazon Prime

1

Go to Amazon Prime Membership Page

Navigate to amazon.com/mc or go to Account → Prime Membership in the Amazon website or app. Sign in if prompted.

Click "Manage" then "Update, cancel, and more"

On the Prime membership page, find the Manage Membership section. Click "Update, cancel, and more" and then select "End membership".

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get a refund when canceling Amazon Prime?

Yes. Amazon offers prorated refunds for annual plans if you haven't used Prime benefits extensively. For monthly plans, you keep access until the billing period ends but won't be charged again. If you signed up for a free trial and cancel before it ends, you won't be charged at all.

What happens to Prime Video after canceling?

You lose access to Prime Video's included catalog (movies and shows with the Prime badge). However, any content you purchased outright is yours to keep. Channels you subscribed to through Prime Video (like Paramount+ or Starz) will also be canceled.

Does canceling Prime affect my Amazon account?

No. Your Amazon account, order history, wish lists, and reviews all remain. You just lose Prime-specific benefits like free 2-day shipping, Prime Video, Prime Music, and Prime Reading.

Can I cancel Amazon Prime on my iPhone?

Yes. Open the Amazon app → profile icon → Your Account → Prime Membership → Manage → End Membership. If you subscribed via the App Store, cancel through iPhone Settings → Subscriptions.

What happens if I cancel during a free trial?

Your trial ends immediately and you won't be charged. To keep your trial for the full period, cancel on the last day — but set a reminder so you don't forget.
