Cancel Your Amazon Prime

It's one of the most value-packed subscriptions available, especially for frequent Amazon shoppers.

The 'Refund for Unused Service' Tactic
If you have an annual Prime membership and have not used your benefits (like free delivery or Prime Video) since it was last charged, Amazon has a policy of providing a full pro-rated refund for the unused portion when you cancel.
Switch to a Monthly Plan for Flexibility
If you only need Prime for a specific event like the Great Indian Festival sale or a new season of a show, cancel your annual plan. You can later subscribe to a much cheaper monthly or quarterly plan to get the benefits without a long-term commitment.
The 'Prime Lite' Downgrade
For users who primarily want free shipping and don't care about Prime Video in the highest quality, consider the 'Prime Lite' plan. It offers most of the core shopping benefits for a significantly lower annual fee.
Pre-Cancellation Safety Checklist
Check Your Last Used Benefit
CRITICAL: The refund policy depends on usage. Before you cancel, double-check that you haven't placed a Prime order or watched Prime Video since your last renewal. If you have, you will only be able to cancel at the end of your membership term, not get a refund.
Understand What Happens to Prime Music & Reading
Your access to Prime Music playlists and Prime Reading library is tied directly to your membership. You will lose access to these immediately after your membership period ends. Download any purchased music or Kindle books.
Review Your Subscribe & Save Orders
If you use Amazon's 'Subscribe & Save' feature for monthly household items, those orders will lose their free shipping benefit and special discount after you cancel Prime. Review and adjust these separately.
