How do I cancel a Roku free trial before being charged?

Answer

Cancel the trial from the same place that started billing—usually the Roku account subscriptions page, or Apple, Google, or the channel's own website. Cancel before the trial end date to avoid the first charge.

Before you start: stop right away if…

  • Ignore messages that demand a fee or remote access just to cancel a free trial.

Follow these steps

  1. Open Roku subscriptions

    On a computer or phone, sign in at the official Roku account site, then open Subscriptions or Manage subscriptions for the same email used on the Roku.

    You should see: A list of active trials and subscriptions appears.

  2. Cancel the trial channel

    Select the channel with the free trial and choose Cancel subscription, Turn off auto-renew, or the equivalent option. Confirm until you see a cancellation or ends-on date.

    You should see: The trial shows it will end without renewing, or it is already canceled.

  3. Check Apple or Google billing

    If the trial is not listed on Roku, check Apple Subscriptions or Google Play subscriptions for the same channel and cancel there instead.

    You should see: The subscription is canceled in the store that actually billed the trial.

Extra tips

What to look for: The channel name, trial end date, and whether the subscription is listed under Roku, Apple, Google Play, or the channel's website.

Before you change anything: Find the email confirmation for the free trial. Note which payment method was used. Cancel before the trial ends if you do not want to be charged. Keep a screenshot of the cancellation confirmation.
