How to cancel Roku subscriptions
If you've subscribed to a streaming channel using your Roku, you can cancel it from the Roku player or using the Roku website.
From the Roku device:
1. Using your Roku remote, navigate to the channel you want to cancel and press the asterisk button. You should see a pop-up window appear.
2. Select Manage subscription.
3. On the Manage subscription page, select Cancel subscription and then confirm this is what you really want to do.
If you don't see Manage subscriptions in the list of options, that probably means you've subscribed through another service (or you're receiving the channel for free).
From mobile or web:
1. Open the Roku website in a browser and, if you're not already signed in, log in to your account.
2. Click the avatar icon at the top-right of the window and click My account.
3. Click Manage your subscriptions.
4. You should see a list of channels you're subscribed to through your Roku account. Click Cancel subscription next to any channels you want to cancel.
Why is Roku charging me monthly?
Your Roku account is free, and you don't have to pay for a subscription to use a Roku device. Even the Roku channel is free.
If you see a recurring charge on your credit card billing statement, it means that you have subscribed to a paid or premium subscription (or someone with access to your Roku player has signed up for a channel).
The easiest way to find out what subscriptions you may be paying for is to check your account page from a website on your computer or mobile device (see the previous section for instructions on how to do this). The Roku website makes it easy to see all your charges by displaying a list of current and expired subscriptions.
