How to Stop Amazon Kids Plus Subscription
Amazon Kids Plus is an excellent service for kids with a lot of child-friendly content. But it’s also an additional service that costs money, and some parents might not want to pay for it. Luckily, it’s pretty easy to stop if you know the steps.
You can stop an Amazon Kids Plus Subscription by following the steps below:
1. Log into your Amazon account or access it on the web or app.
2. Go to the Parent Dashboard in your Amazon account.
3. Click on Menu from the Parent Dashboard.
4. Click on Manage Amazon Kids+ subscription.
5. Click Cancel Amazon Kids+ subscription.
6. Follow any other instructions as directed.
You can also cancel an Amazon Kids Plus subscription through your Amazon account on any device by going to the Memberships and Subscriptions portal. Once there, click on Cancel Subscription and follow any other directions the portal walks you through.
Amazon Kids Plus subscriptions are often offered for free for a year when you sign up for promotions or through other Amazon product purchases. And if you don’t cancel it, it will automatically renew.
But the renewal is not free. So if you don’t cancel the subscription before the renewal date, you’ll be charged for a year of Amazon Kids Plus whether you actually want it or not.
If you are currently using Amazon Kids Plus, checking in on your subscription is a good idea to see if it is set up for automatic renewal. Then you can stop the subscription and avoid paying for a service you don’t want.
What Happens if You Cancel Amazon Kids+?
If you cancel Amazon Kids+, you won’t be able to watch the content that’s available on it when logged into your Amazon account. But you also won’t be charged for the subscription. You can easily turn the account back on if you want to.
You won’t be charged for continued use if you cancel Amazon Kids Plus before the subscription renewal trigger date. But if you cancel after this date, you’ll still be charged for the subscription even if you don’t want it.
Can You Pause Amazon Kids Subscription?
You can pause an Amazon Kids subscription pretty much anytime. If you are on a monthly payment plan for the service, you can pause at any time, and you won’t be charged for the coming months.
When or if you want to renew the subscription, you can turn it back on and enjoy all of the content or let your kids watch it.
You can pause things if you’ve signed up for a yearly subscription. But you’ll still need to pay for the year, and the subscription will actually end whenever your payment term is up. You can pick the service back up at any time.
Amazon Kids Plus Subscription Price
If you are an Amazon Prime member, adding on the Amazon Kids Plus Subscription is very easy. It will cost you $4.99/month, so it’s also pretty affordable. You also get a free one-month trial if you want to explore the content offered.
The subscription is a little more expensive if you aren’t an Amazon Prime member. You’ll pay $7.99 a month for it. This is still affordable, and you still get access to the one-month trial period before you are charged.
Amazon Kids+ Charge on Credit Card
If you were part of a free promotion for Amazon Kids+, you might get a charge on your credit card once the trial period is over. This subscription price starts to be charged once you have used it for the determined trial period.
This happens to many people when they don’t realize that the trial period is ending. And if you wait until it happens, you’ll be stuck paying the monthly subscription price until you cancel the subscription by following the steps outlined above.
That’s why it’s always a good idea to check in with your Amazon account to see what subscriptions you have signed up for. You can make any changes you want and prevent any unwanted or unknown credit card charges from showing up on your account.
Final Thoughts
Stopping an Amazon Kids Plus subscription is very easy, and you can access this right through your Amazon account. It’s good to cancel the service if you don’t intend to use it or if a free trial period is ending.
You can also pause this subscription at any time if you don’t want to use it temporarily but think you might in the future. The process for doing so is the same as canceling it; you just sign up again when you want to.
