How to cancel Disney+

Short answer

If Disney+ bills you directly, log in at DisneyPlus.com in a browser, select your profile, then Account, select your Disney+ subscription under Subscription and choose Cancel Subscription. You keep access until the end of your current subscription term. If a partner such as Apple, Amazon, Hulu or Verizon bills you, the steps are different, and monthly subscribers billed by Disney+ can pause instead of canceling.

Who bills you for Disney+

Disney+ says that if you bought your subscription through a third-party billing partner, billing and account management are typically done through that partner. The US partners it lists are Amazon, Apple, Google, Hulu, Kroger, HBO Max, Roku, Spectrum, Total Wireless, Verizon and Xfinity.

Cancel Disney+ billed directly

Disney+ gives these steps for a computer or a mobile browser. On an iPhone, open Safari.

  1. Log in at DisneyPlus.com. Use Safari on your iPhone or a browser on a computer.
  2. Select your profile. Select your Profile.
  3. Select Account. Open Account.
  4. Select your subscription. Under Subscription, select your Disney+ subscription.
  5. Cancel Subscription. Select Cancel Subscription. You keep access until the end of your current subscription term.

Changed your mind before the term ends? In the same Account screen choose Restart Subscription, then Agree, and it carries on without interruption. Once the term has ended the subscription is fully canceled and you'd need to subscribe again.

Cancel Disney+ billed through Apple

  1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
  2. Tap your name at the top of the screen, then tap Subscriptions.
  3. Select your Disney+ subscription.
  4. Tap Cancel Subscription.

If Disney+ isn't in that list, Apple doesn't bill you for it. Check DisneyPlus.com instead.

Bundles: two subscriptions, two cancellations

If you had a Hulu, ESPN or HBO Max subscription before you upgraded to a bundle, Disney+ warns of “additional complexities”:

What happens after you cancel

Pause Disney+ instead

If you have a monthly subscription billed by Disney+, you can pause it: Account › your Disney+ subscription › Pause Subscription, choose the duration, then Pause Subscription again. Disney+ notes that certain plans may not be eligible.

A reminder before Disney+ renews

Annual plans are the easy ones to forget, because the charge only shows up once a year. In Subs, add Disney+ with its renewal date and choose a reminder up to a week before, so you decide before the term rolls over. If you also pay for Hulu or a bundle, add each charge separately; seeing them side by side is the fastest way to notice you're paying twice.

Frequently asked questions

Can I cancel Disney+ from the iPhone app?

Disney+'s instructions use DisneyPlus.com in a computer or mobile browser. If Apple bills you, cancel in iPhone Settings › [your name] › Subscriptions.

Do I lose Disney+ immediately when I cancel?

No. You keep access until the end of your current subscription term, which depends on whether you were billed monthly, annually or are in a promotional period.

Can I pause Disney+?

Yes, if you have a monthly subscription billed directly by Disney+, though certain plans aren't eligible. The pause starts with your next billing period.

I canceled Disney+ but I'm still charged for a bundle. Why?

The bundle and your original subscription are separate. Canceling one leaves the other running, so cancel both if you want neither.

Can I sign up for Disney+ through Apple?

Not anymore. Disney+ says new and returning subscribers can't sign up and pay through Apple, though existing Apple-billed subscribers aren't affected.

Does canceling delete my Disney+ account?

No. Canceling stops the subscription. Deleting the account is a separate option you can choose afterwards.
