Canceling Kindle Unlimited is as easy as pie, even for anyone who started using the service newly. All you have to do is to head to “Manage Your Content and Devices” and, of course, sign in to your account with Amazon. Then locate “Manage Membership” and click on “Cancel Kindle Unlimited Membership.” Thereafter, select “Cancel Membership” and consider it done. Do not be bothered that your membership will remain active after that; that’s how it works. It would remain active until the next billing date; when it passes, you will lose access to all the content you had accessed.
Unless the world has left you behind, you should know that books have gone beyond being an ink-on-paper affair. People can now access and read books and periodicals online through services like Kindle Unlimited.
Guide On How To Cancel Subscription for Kindle Unlimited
Kindle Unlimited is a service through which avid readers can get to read as much as they want from the more than two million titles, thousands of audiobooks, and select magazines availed on the platform, all for a $9.99 monthly subscription fee. The good thing is that you can cancel your subscription anytime you want; below is a detailed step-by-step guide on how to go about it.
1. Begin by visiting the Amazon website.
Head to Amazon.com using your preferred web browser (you’ll have to avoid using the app this time).
Place your cursor above the button labeled “Hello, Sign In ” located in the corner.
2. Access your Amazon account by logging in.
Please provide your email address and password to log in to your account. If you have forgotten your password do not worry; it happens to everyone at some point. Simply click on “Forgot Password” to reset it first.
After you log in to your account, on the homepage screen, you may see enticing offers that may catch your eye. Try to avoid getting sidetracked as there might be tempting promotions awaiting your attention.
3. Go to the Kindle Unlimited settings
Hover your cursor, over “Hello, [Your Name]” again. Find the “Memberships & Subscriptions” option, in the dropdown menu and locate the Kindle Unlimited section.
4. Commence the cancellation process
Please locate the option labeled “Cancel Kindle Unlimited Subscription.”
Press the button to proceed which will lead you to a page where you can see a list of all the books you have borrowed so far on Amazons platform evoking a response by asking if you are truly ready to part ways, with these titles.
Click the button that says “Cancel Membership” once you reach the confirmation page. Amazon may attempt to win you over by presenting incentives to keep you such, as a trial or a discounted price tag. At this point, it is up to you to decide whether to go ahead or take the offer; but if you have not been reading the books anyway, there is no need to keep paying for the subscription which is going to be like paying for a library card without visiting.
At this point, you have indicated that you want to opt out of the subscription. So, you will be presented with a confirmation page to see the cancellation through. You will be asked this: “Are you sure you want to end your membership?” To get it done, click on “Cancel Membership.”
Your subscription will remain active until your next billing date. In line with that, you will be taken to a confirmation page that states: “Thank You! Your membership has been canceled”. The page would also inform you when your membership will end and that you will no longer be charged.
The Confirmation that Comes After Kindle Unlimited Cancellation
You should get an email from Amazon once you have successfully canceled your sub to Kindle Unlimited.
This email confirms that your Kindle Unlimited membership will not be renewed and also includes a click-through button in case, for any reason, you want to undo the whole cancelation you just did.
