Steps to cancel Netflix

  1. Sign in at netflix.com and open Account, then the membership / cancel page (netflix.com/cancelplan).
  2. Choose Cancel, then Finish Cancellation; a confirmation email follows. (Netflix may also offer to pause the membership for a month instead.)
  3. You keep watching until the end of the paid period; deleting the app or signing out does not cancel.
  4. If there is no cancel button, you’re billed by a partner (phone carrier, TV provider or Apple). For Apple billing, cancel in iOS Settings › [your name] › Subscriptions.

Paying through Apple?

If you subscribed in the iPhone or iPad app, Apple may bill you instead of the provider. Then you cancel in your iPhone or iPad settings, not with the provider and not inside the app.

Signed up in Germany? The cancel button

If you live in Germany and signed up for Netflix 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Since June 19, 2026, contracts signed on a business’s website or app can also be withdrawn during the withdrawal period with a button such as “Vertrag widerrufen” (withdraw from contract).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 Netflix and not legal advice. For your specific case, Germany’s consumer advice centers (Verbraucherzentralen) can help.
