How to cancel Spotify

A quick, up-to-date guide to cancelling Spotify — and keeping proof that you did, in case you're charged anyway.

Before you click cancel: the moment you cancel is exactly when proof matters. CancelProof records your cancellation — the pages, the clicks, the confirmation — so if Spotify bills you after you cancel, you have a refund pack ready. Get notified at launch

Cancel Spotify in 5 steps

  1. Go to your Spotify account in a browser and log in.
  2. Open Manage your plan.
  3. Select Cancel Spotify Premium (Cancel subscription).
  4. Follow the prompts to confirm the cancellation.
  5. Keep the confirmation email as proof.

What happens after you cancel

Your Premium stays active until your next billing date, then your account automatically switches to the free tier. You keep your playlists and saved music.

Subscribed through Apple, Google, or another provider?

If your Premium is bundled through a mobile provider or another partner, the standard cancel steps won't work — open Manage your plan, find your provider's contact link under the Payment section, and cancel through them.

Charged after cancelling Spotify?

It happens more than it should. If a charge lands after you cancelled, here's how to get your money back from Spotify — and why documented proof is what makes the difference.

Frequently asked questions

Will Spotify charge me after I cancel?
It shouldn't. After you cancel, Spotify keeps your access until the end of the billing period you've already paid for, then stops billing. If a charge still appears, see our guide on being charged after cancelling Spotify.
Does cancelling Spotify delete my account?
No. Cancelling stops future billing but usually keeps your account so you can return later. Deleting your account is a separate action in Spotify's settings.
How do I know my Spotify cancellation worked?
Look for a cancellation confirmation email from Spotify and check that your account shows the plan ending. Keeping that confirmation — an email or a screenshot — is your proof if there's ever a dispute.

Cancelling something? Keep the proof.

CancelProof records your cancellation automatically — so if you're charged anyway, you're covered.

CancelProof documents your cancellation; it does not cancel anything for you and is not legal advice.
