Cancel from Amazon membership settings

Kindle Unlimited is managed from your Amazon account. Use the Amazon account that has the Kindle Unlimited membership, not just the Kindle app.

  1. Sign in to the Amazon account tied to Kindle Unlimited.
  2. Open your Kindle Unlimited membership or Amazon memberships area.
  3. Choose the option to manage or cancel the membership.
  4. Follow Amazon's prompts until the cancellation is confirmed.
  5. Save the confirmation email or final account screen.
  6. Note the date your Kindle Unlimited access ends.

Deleting the Kindle app or removing downloaded books from a device does not cancel the membership.

Check what happens to access

After canceling, check Amazon's final screen for the end date. Kindle Unlimited access usually continues until the end of the paid membership period shown by Amazon.

Before you close the page, record:

  • the Amazon account email
  • the cancellation date
  • the final access date
  • whether it was a trial or paid membership
  • whether any other Amazon memberships are still active
  • the card or billing source used for renewal

That is especially useful if you have several Amazon services under the same login.

Separate Kindle Unlimited from Prime

Kindle Unlimited is separate from Amazon Prime and Prime Reading. Canceling one does not automatically mean every Amazon subscription or benefit has ended.

If your goal is to reduce recurring Amazon charges, also check:

  • Prime
  • Amazon Music Unlimited
  • Prime Video channels
  • Audible
  • Subscribe and Save
  • other memberships and subscriptions in your Amazon account

Cancel only the services you no longer want to keep.

Track reading and media subscriptions together

Canceling Kindle Unlimited handles one membership. Orbit helps you keep the rest visible.

Add the subscriptions you want to keep, see what renews next, and set reminders before trials and regular renewals are due. When reading, music, streaming, and cloud services sit in one list, it is easier to decide what still earns its place.
