The advantages of the subscription
Personally , I believe that the subscription to Amazon Prime is truly essential , because it allows me to:
- receive my orders quickly
- do not pay the shipping costs
- watch unlimited movies and TV series in streaming
- listen to streaming music for free
- access exclusive offers, discounts and promotions
However, I understand that not all users have these needs or are interested in these advantages and, consequently, want to deactivate or cancel their subscription to Amazon Prime , especially since its cost has now become quite high, equal to about 36 euros per year.
If you too, after using the subscription for a certain period of time, are tired of paying it and want to cancel or deactivate it, in this guide I will show you the very simple steps to follow.

Deactivate Amazon Prime via website
The easiest way to deactivate Amazon Prime is to connect to the Amazon site using any PC web browser.
Click on the Login button that you will see at the top of the site, on the right, and enter your credentials to access your Amazon account .
Then click on the item My account and then click on the Prime button among the items proposed.
In the new page that opens, click on Manage subscription at the top right , then click on End subscription .
You will be shown a message on the screen indicating that the procedure to deactivate Amazon Prime has been successful and you will receive an email message to the email address associated with your Amazon account that will notify you that your subscription to the Premium service of the famous e-commerce site was canceled.
Easy, right?
Your Amazon Prime subscription will still be active until the date indicated , but from that day the automatic renewal will NOT work and consequently you will NOT pay for a new year (or month) of subscription .
In practice, you can continue to take advantage of the benefits offered by Amazon Prime until the expiration date indicated.
If, on the other hand, you change your mind and after deactivating the automatic subscription or renewal you want to return to Prime customers, you must select My Amazon Prime and click Continue subscription .
