How to Cancel Starz (2026)

✓ Can cancel onlineUpdated 2026-06-23

Quick answer

How you cancel Starz depends entirely on where you signed up. If you subscribed directly at starz.com or in the Starz app, you can cancel online in your account settings. But if you subscribed through a third party — Apple, Amazon, Google, Roku, Samsung, Microsoft, a cable/satellite provider, or another streaming bundle — Starz cannot cancel it for you, and you must cancel through that company instead. Either way, you keep access to Starz until the end of your current billing cycle, and Starz does not pro-rate or refund the remainder of the period.

Starz cancellation — FAQ

I can't find a cancel button — why?

You most likely subscribed through a third party such as Amazon, Apple, Roku, or a cable provider. Starz only shows a cancel option for direct starz.com subscriptions. Check your receipt to see who bills you, then cancel through that company.

Will I lose access to Starz right away when I cancel?

No. You'll keep watching Starz until the end of your current billing cycle. After that, the subscription won't renew.

Can Starz support cancel my Amazon or Apple subscription for me?

No. If another company handles your billing, only that company can cancel it. Starz support cannot stop a charge it doesn't control.
