Have you noticed a charge from Amazon Music on your bank statement? Many people find themselves subscribed without realizing it, often after a free trial ends or through a Prime membership benefit they don’t use. If you’re ready to stop the subscription and the recurring charges, you’re in the right place.
The process is straightforward, but it can feel a little hidden within Amazon’s vast website and app. Whether you’re on a computer or using your phone, we’ll walk you through the simple steps to cancel your Amazon Music subscription for good.
Canceling Your Amazon Music Unlimited Plan
If you pay for Amazon Music Unlimited separately, this is the process you’ll follow. Start by going to the Amazon website on your computer and logging into your account. Hover over ‘Accounts & Lists’ and click on ‘Memberships & Subscriptions’. Here, you’ll see a list of your active subscriptions. Find ‘Amazon Music Unlimited’ and click on the ‘Cancel Subscription’ button next to it. Amazon will likely ask you to confirm your choice or offer a reason for leaving. Follow the prompts, and you’ll receive a confirmation email once the cancellation is complete.
Ending Your Prime Music Channel Subscriptions
This is a common point of confusion. You might subscribe to individual artist channels (like Amazon Music HD) through your main Prime account. To manage these, go to the same ‘Memberships & Subscriptions’ page. Look for the section labeled ‘Prime Video Channels’. You’ll see any music channels you’re paying for listed here. Simply select ‘Cancel Channel’ for each one you wish to remove.
How to Unsubscribe Using the Amazon Mobile App
You can also manage everything directly from your phone. Open the Amazon app and tap the profile icon or the three-line menu. Go to ‘Your Account’ and then select ‘Memberships & Subscriptions’. The rest of the steps are identical to the desktop version—find your Amazon Music Unlimited plan or music channels and cancel them directly.
What Happens After You Cancel
Once you unsubscribe, your access to the premium features will continue until the end of the billing period you’ve already paid for. After that, you’ll revert to the free, ad-supported tier of Amazon Music (if available in your region) or lose access entirely. It’s a good idea to make a note of the final access date so you aren’t caught by surprise.
And that’s all there is to it. Taking a few minutes to navigate these settings can save you from unwanted monthly charges, freeing up your budget for something you’ll use and enjoy more.
