If you decide to cancel your Audible subscription after the free trial or want to save some money, here’s an easy way to do it.
Important Considerations
- Before you cancel your Audible subscription, keep these points in mind:
- Use Your Credits: Make sure to use any unused credits before canceling. Once you use Audible credits to purchase an item, you’ll own it forever, even after cancellation.
- Website Only: To cancel your subscription, you must visit the Audible website, either on your phone or computer. The app typically doesn’t allow cancellations.
- Possible Retention Offers: Audible may offer special deals to keep you subscribed, such as a free month, discounted pricing, or a year-long subscription at a lower rate than your regular monthly fee.
- Payment Cycle: Your subscription will continue until the end of your billing cycle. For example, if you cancel on the 4th of the month but your payment date is the 12th, you will still have access until the 11th.
