How to Cancel Starz on Every Platform That Bills You

Last verified  ·  5 min read  ·  How we verify

Quick answer

Start with who bills you: that decides everything. Starz sells through Apple, Google Play, Roku, Amazon, Hulu, cable providers, and starz.com itself, and each one can only cancel its own billing. Check the charge on your statement (APPLE.COM/BILL, GOOGLE*STARZ, ROKU, AMZN), then cancel on that platform. Signed up at starz.com? Sign in, open "Settings," then "Subscription," then "Cancel Subscription" (reported labels). Access runs to the end of the paid period.

One sourcing note: Starz's help pages were mid-move at verification (September 5, 2026); old starz.com FAQ addresses return errors, and support.starz.com is the live official help site. So starz.com labels below are reported; the platform steps are those storefronts' standard, stable flows.

Where did you subscribe to Starz?

This question is the whole page. Starz sells through more storefronts than almost any streamer, and the rule never changes: you cancel wherever you are billed. starz.com cannot reach into Apple's, Google's, Roku's, Amazon's, Hulu's, or your cable company's billing.

If you do not remember, your statement does. APPLE.COM/BILL means Apple, GOOGLE*STARZ means Google Play, ROKU means Roku, AMZN means Amazon, a Hulu charge that grew by a few dollars means the add-on, and a charge naming STARZ directly usually means starz.com billing.

How do you cancel Starz on starz.com?

If Starz bills you directly, the reported flow:

  1. Go to starz.com in a browser and sign in.
  2. Select your profile icon, then "Settings."
  3. Open "Subscription" (some accounts see "My Account").
  4. Select "Cancel Subscription."
  5. Click through the save-offer screens and confirm.

Those labels are reported rather than quoted: Starz's own FAQ pages were unreachable at verification, so expect small wording differences on screen.

The same reported path exists in the Starz app when Starz bills you directly: Profile, "Settings," "Subscription," then cancel. No cancel option there? You are platform-billed; the forks below are your page.

How do you cancel Starz on iPhone or Android?

If Apple bills you: open iPhone Settings, tap your name, then "Subscriptions," then STARZ, then "Cancel Subscription." Our iPhone subscriptions guide covers that surface.

If Google Play bills you: go to play.google.com/subscriptions, or open the Play app and tap your profile icon, then "Payments & subscriptions," then "Subscriptions," then STARZ, then cancel.

How do you cancel Starz on Roku, Amazon, or Hulu?

  • Roku: from the home screen, highlight the STARZ channel, press the star button on the remote, choose "Manage subscription," then cancel. my.roku.com works from a browser; our Roku subscriptions guide has the full tour.
  • Amazon: sign in at amazon.com, open "Account," then "Memberships & Subscriptions" (Prime Video Channels lives here), find STARZ, and select "Cancel Channel."
  • Hulu add-on: go to hulu.com/account, open "Manage Add-ons," toggle STARZ off, and save.

What if Starz came through your cable box?

Xfinity, DirecTV, and other TV providers sell Starz as a package add-on, and only they can remove it. Use the provider's app, account page, or phone line; Starz cannot touch provider billing.

What happens when the $2.99 promo ends?

The promo is how most people got here. Starz runs sales several times a year, reported at $2.99 a month (sometimes $2, or $20 a year) for a 3-to-6-month term, on starz.com and through Prime Video Channels and Hulu.

The honest part: when the term ends, billing reverts to the full monthly rate, reported at $10.99 as of September 2026, with no fresh consent step. Nothing announces the switch except the bigger charge.

Worth knowing

A $2.99 promo does not end, it converts: billing continues at full price automatically when the term runs out. The day you take a Starz sale, note the first full-price date and set a reminder a few days ahead.

What retention offers will Starz show you?

The starz.com cancel flow is reported to surface discounted save offers before the final confirmation, typically $2.99 to $5 for a few months. Taking one is fine math if you would keep watching at that price; just note the end date, because it reverts like the promo it is. Platform storefronts run their own cancel screens instead.

What happens after you cancel Starz?

  • You keep access through the end of the paid period, then the account reverts to a signed-out, no-subscription state (reported).
  • No partial-period refunds are reported on Starz's side; platform billers follow their own refund rules.
  • Coming back is often cheap: the sales recur.

If you hit a wall

The wall cases are misrouted ones: canceling on starz.com while Amazon keeps billing, or a promo that converted before you noticed. For help from Starz, support.starz.com is the live help site; the older FAQ links are gone. Otherwise, how to cancel any subscription covers escalation, the refund playbook covers a charge already taken, and stopping automatic payments at the bank is the last resort.

Starz is the classic charge that hides under someone else's name: APPLE.COM/BILL, GOOGLE*STARZ, a Hulu bill that quietly grew. ReNood reads a screenshot of your statement and names the recurring charges on it, no bank login, so you can see which storefront bills you before you go cancel there.

FAQ

Why can't I cancel Starz on starz.com?

Because starz.com only manages subscriptions it bills directly. If you subscribed through Apple, Google Play, Roku, Amazon, Hulu, or a cable provider, that storefront owns the billing, and Starz's website has no cancel button to show you. Check your statement descriptor to see who charges you, then cancel on that platform's subscription page.

How do I cancel Starz on Amazon or Hulu?

On Amazon, sign in, open "Account," then "Memberships & Subscriptions" or "Prime Video Channels," find STARZ, and choose "Cancel Channel." On Hulu, go to hulu.com/account, open "Manage Add-ons," toggle STARZ off, and save your changes. Either way you keep access until the end of the period you already paid for (reported).

When does my $2.99 promo end?

Starz promo terms are reported to run 3 to 6 months from signup. To find your exact date, open the subscription page of whoever bills you; it shows the next charge date and amount. When the term ends, billing reverts to full price, reported at $10.99 a month as of September 2026, automatically.

Do I keep access after canceling?

Yes. Canceling stops the renewal, not the time you already paid for, so you keep watching through the end of the current billing period (reported). Starz-side refunds for partial periods are not reported to exist, and platform billers follow their own rules. So cancel the day you decide, even mid-cycle; you lose nothing you paid for.
