How to cancel YouTube Premium
The short version: YouTube Premium cancellations happen on its direct cancellation page — not buried in the app. This link takes you to the right place:
Cancel YouTube Premium →Step by step
- Open the official direct cancellation page — it goes straight to cancellation.
- Sign in with your YouTube Premium account if prompted.
- Confirm the cancellation. Expect a retention offer (a discount or pause) — decline it if you're sure.
- Screenshot or keep the confirmation email in case a charge slips through.
Subscribed through an app store? If you originally signed up inside the iOS/Android app, cancel via Apple subscriptions or Google Play subscriptions instead — the YouTube Premium website can't cancel store-billed plans.
Good to know: Direct paid-memberships management deep-link; requires sign-in. Google Play/Apple-billed memberships cancel via that store.
What you'll stop paying
YouTube Premium's typical pricing starts at $13.99/mo (Individual):
- Individual — $13.99/mo
- Family — $22.99/mo
You usually keep access until the end of the period you've already paid for — cancelling today doesn't cut you off today.
Before you cancel
- Check your renewal date first. Cancel a day before renewal and you lose nothing; forget and you're billed for another cycle.
- On a free trial? Cancel now — you keep the trial until it expires, and there's no surprise charge.
- Pause instead? Some services offer a pause or a cheaper tier at the cancel screen — worth a look if you're on the fence.
