How to Cancel STARZ Free Trial 2025

Last updated: December 10, 2025

Accidentally started a STARZ trial—or just finished the show you came for? This guide explains how to cancel STARZ free trial quickly and safely, with exact clicks for every place you might’ve subscribed: STARZ.com, Amazon Prime Video Channels, Apple, Google Play, Roku, Hulu, and YouTube TV. We’ll also cover refund rules, when access stops, and what to do if you can’t find the subscription.

Critical rule: to avoid being charged, STARZ requires you to cancel before midnight Eastern Time on the last day of your trial. Starz.com

Before You Cancel

• Find who’s billing you.

  • If you started on STARZ.com, you’ll cancel in your STARZ Settings/Account.

  • If you added STARZ to Prime Video, Apple (iOS/Apple TV), Google Play (Android), Roku, Hulu, or YouTube TV, you must cancel through that platform. Uninstalling the app doesn’t stop billing.

• Know the trial deadline. Cancel before midnight ET on the final trial day to prevent auto-charge. STARZ and partners aren’t obligated to remind you.

• After you cancel. Most platforms keep access until the end of your trial or period; you simply won’t auto-renew. (Details below.)

How to Cancel on STARZ.com (direct billing)

Use this if you signed up at starz.com.

Step 1: Go to STARZ.com and sign in. Step 2: Open Settings / Account → Plan & Billing. Step 3: Click Cancel Subscription, follow the prompts, and confirm. Keep the confirmation email.

Important: Cancel before midnight ET on the last trial day. Your account will show the end date.

What Happens After Cancellation

• Access window:

  • Amazon Channels: You keep access until the shown end date after canceling.
    

  • YouTube TV: You can access until the end of your payment or free-trial period.
    

  • STARZ.com: Cancellations take effect at the end of the current period; trials must be canceled before they convert.
    

• Refunds: Trials don’t generate refunds; canceling stops future billing only. Partners (Amazon/Apple/Google/Roku/Hulu/YouTube TV) follow their own refund policies.
  

• Reactivation: You can re-subscribe later via the same platform if you want. (Eligibility for promos/free trials may be limited.) Starz.com

Troubleshooting

• Can’t find the subscription? Check where you started the trial. If you subscribed via a partner, STARZ.com will direct you to cancel with that partner.
  

• Multiple accounts issue: On Apple/Google/Roku/YouTube TV, ensure you’re signed into the same account used to start the trial. (Google specifically suggests switching accounts if you can’t find it.)
  

• App won’t cancel: Use a web browser version of the platform’s account page—mobile apps sometimes hide the option.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I lose access the moment I cancel a STARZ free trial? Generally, no—you keep access until the trial end date on most platforms; just cancel before midnight ET on the last day to avoid charges.

Is there a grace period or automatic refund? No. Canceling stops renewal; refunds are uncommon for trials and depend on the platform’s policy.

Where can I see my renewal or end date? On Amazon, it shows on the confirmation screen; on other platforms, check your Subscriptions/Membership page.

Final Thoughts

The fastest way to avoid charges is to cancel where you started the trial and do it before midnight ET on the last day. Save your cancellation confirmation, verify the end date, and you’re set. If you can’t find the trial, check which platform billed you and follow that platform’s steps above.
