Cancel Netflix in 3 steps
- Open netflix.com/cancelplan in a browser on your phone or computer and sign in.
- Tap Cancel.
- Tap Finish Cancellation.
Netflix then sends a confirmation email. If it never arrives, check spam, and look at your Account page to see that the membership shows as ending.
What happens after you cancel
- You keep watching until the end of the period you already paid for. After that it stops and you are not charged again.
- If your account was put on hold, cancelling closes it straight away.
- A gift card or promo balance keeps working for as many months as it covers.
- You can come back any time. Netflix keeps your viewing history, ratings and account details for 24 months.
- Signing out or deleting the app does not cancel anything. Only the steps above do.
Pay through an app store or a phone company?
No Cancel button on your Account page? Then you probably pay through a partner, such as a phone company or internet provider. Look in the Membership part of your Account page for their link or instructions, and cancel with them.
If Netflix is billed by Google Play: open the Play Store app, tap your profile picture, then Payments & subscriptions, then Subscriptions, choose Netflix and tap Cancel subscription. Google: cancel, pause or change a subscription on Google Play.
If it is billed by Apple: open Settings, tap your name, then Subscriptions, choose Netflix and tap Cancel Subscription. Apple: cancel a subscription from Apple.
A tip before you cancel
Switching to a package that already includes Netflix? Link your Netflix account to the package instead of cancelling, and Netflix stops charging your own card.
Forget the next renewal before it charges you
SubFinito adds up everything you pay for, shows what it costs over ten years, and reminds you before a renewal or a free trial ends. When you cancel Netflix, press Finito and it goes in the Graveyard with the money you saved.
Free to use. No account. Android app coming to Google Play.
Questions
Will I lose access right away?
No. Your membership runs until the end of the billing period you already paid for. The exception is an account on hold, which closes at once.
Does deleting the app cancel Netflix?
No. Deleting the app or signing out does nothing to your membership. You have to cancel on the membership page.
Can I come back later?
Yes. You can restart whenever you like, and Netflix keeps your viewing activity, ratings and account details for 24 months.
