Now we’re in 2024, however, there’s more Amazon news:Prime Video is set to launch ads into its contentfrom 29 January 2024 in the USA and 5 February in the UK. To go ad-free you’ll need to pay an additional £/$2.99 per month – even if you already have pre-paid your Amazon Prime subscription for the whole year.
Anyway, if you really and truly do want to cancel Amazon Prime then here’s how you can easily do so, whether using a web browser or the Amazon Shopping app. To make it even easier, here’s aquick-access link to Amazon’s Edit Membership cancellation page.
1. Login and go to Your Account

Go towww.amazon.co.uk(orwww.amazon.comif you’re in the US) and, if you’re not signed in, do so under the ‘Hello, sign in / Account & Lists’ to the upper right. If you’re using the Amazon Shopping app onAppleorAndroidinstead then this will automatically prompt you to login.
Once you’re signed in, the browser format offers a drop menu under that sameAccounts & Lists: the top right of this list housesYour Account. If you’re instead using the Amazon Shopping app, click the trio of lines to the bottom right and then the Your Account from the menu that pops up.

In here is where you can view your plan type and the renewal date. To cancel you’ll want to select the ‘Manage / Membership’ to the far right, then click the ‘Update, cancel and more’ drop menu from there. Within the app there’s a ‘Manage membership’ drop menu up top of the Prime Membership section, which reveals the same ‘Update, cancel and more’ option.
3. End your membership

‘Update, cancel and more’ reveals a very clear ‘End membership’ option, which it’s easy to click if you wish to surrender your Prime benefits. Which, obviously, Amazon doesn’t want you to do. So here’s the part where you’ll have to jump through a few pages to absolutely confirm you’re done with the service.
The first screen will tell you all about your delivery, Prime Video, and other benefits. Select ‘I Do Not Want My Benefits’ and you’ll be taken to a ‘Confirm membership cancellation’ page. Here you can select the ‘End Prime Benefits onX date’ and you’ll have until the end of your subscription period to make use of Prime before you’re no longer a member.
