Steps to cancel discovery+
- Find out who bills you (check your discovery+ emails, or sign in at discoveryplus.com and open your profile › Subscription).
- If billed by discovery+, choose Cancel in the Subscription section and look out for the confirmation email.
- If Cancel is missing, you’re billed by an app store or TV provider. For Apple, cancel in iOS Settings › [your name] › Subscriptions. For Amazon, Roku or Google, cancel with them.
- Cancel at least a day before the next billing date. Access lasts until the paid period ends, and deleting the app does not cancel.

Signed up in Germany? The cancel button
If you live in Germany and signed up for discovery+ directly on its website, German law has required businesses that let you sign up online to offer a cancellation button there since July 1, 2022. If a business doesn’t offer one, you may cancel at any time without notice.
Since June 19, 2026, contracts signed on a business’s website or app can also be withdrawn during the withdrawal period with a button such as “Vertrag widerrufen” (withdraw from contract). Withdrawing undoes a contract you just signed; it is not the same as canceling.
This is general information about the law, not a statement about discovery+ and not legal advice. For your specific case, Germany’s consumer advice centers (Verbraucherzentralen) can help.
