How to Cancel PlayStation Plus (2026 Step-by-Step)

PlayStation Plus auto-renews and Sony labels the option a couple of different ways - 'Cancel Subscription' on the web, 'Turn Off Auto-Renew' on console. Either way the result is the same: no more charges, but you keep online play and benefits until your paid period ends. Here is the path for each device.

How to cancel, step by step

1Web (easiest): sign in

Go to PlayStation Account Management in any browser and sign in.

2Open Subscription

From the left-hand menu click Subscription.

3Cancel Subscription

Click Cancel Subscription next to PlayStation Plus and follow the prompts; you will see the date your access ends.

4Console alternative

PS5: Settings, Users and Accounts, Account, Payment and Subscriptions, Subscriptions, then Turn Off Auto-Renew. PS4: Settings, Account Management, Account Information, Subscriptions, then Turn Off Auto-Renewal.

Cancelled? Make sure it stays gone

Frequently asked questions

Will I keep online play until it ends?

Yes. Stopping auto-renewal prevents the next charge, but your membership and benefits stay active until the current paid period finishes.

Web or console - does it matter?

No, both reach the same subscription. The web Account Management page is the quickest and works from any browser.

Will I get a refund?

Turning off auto-renewal stops the next charge rather than refunding the current term. Refunds depend on Sony's policy - check the on-screen terms.
