Do it yourself
Cancel Twitch yourself
TLDR: On your subscriptions page, select Don't Renew twice, or cancel in the Twitch app if you subscribed there, at least 24 hours before renewal. You keep benefits until the end date, and Twitch does not generally refund the charge.
Cancel on your subscriptions page
You subscribed on twitch.tv in a browser. A subscription bought in the Twitch mobile app cannot be cancelled here.
- 01Go to twitch.tv/subscriptions and sign in.
- 02Find the subscription and click the cog at the upper right.
- 03Select Don't Renew Subscription.
- 04On the next page, select Don't Renew Subscription again. Twitch says the cancellation is not finished until you do.
Turbo is under Other Subscriptions on the same page. You cannot cancel every subscription in one click.
Cancel in the Twitch app
You subscribed in the Twitch app on iPhone or Android. Twitch says these cannot be managed on twitch.tv/subscriptions.
- 01Open the Twitch app and sign in. It can be a different phone from the one you subscribed on.
- 02Tap your profile picture at the top left, then select Subscriptions.
- 03Tap the subscription and cancel it on that screen.
Twitch recommends the app over Apple's or Google Play's subscription manager.
Cancel with Apple
You subscribed in the Twitch iOS app and cannot open the Twitch app. Twitch says Apple processes those payments.
- 01Go to appleid.apple.com and sign in with the Apple Account used for the purchase.
- 02Open Subscriptions and cancel the Twitch subscription.
Ask Apple for a refund. Twitch says Apple handles refunds for iOS app purchases, under Apple's own policy.
Cancel in Google Play
You subscribed in the Twitch Android app and cannot open the Twitch app. Twitch says Google Play processes those payments.
- 01Go to play.google.com/store/account/subscriptions and sign in with the Google account used for the purchase.
- 02Cancel the Twitch subscription.
Ask Twitch for a refund, not Google. Twitch says it handles refunds for Android and Google Play purchases. The invoice ID starts with GPA.
How to know it worked
- After you cancel on the website, the subscription shows a Sub End Date. You keep the emotes and channel badge until that date.
- In the app, Twitch tells you the day the benefits expire.
- If there is no Sub End Date, the cancellation did not finish. On the website you have to choose Don't Renew Subscription a second time.
Watch out for
- Cancel at least 24 hours before the Sub Renew Date on your Subscriptions page. Twitch says that is how you avoid the next charge.
- Paid subscriptions renew until you cancel. In the app, the default is monthly, and you can extend a renewal to every 3 or 6 months.
- On the web in the United States, Turbo is $11.99 a month. It sits under Other Subscriptions.
- The iOS and Android apps sell Tier 1 only. Twitch says selling in the apps adds costs, so subscriptions cost more there than on the website.
- A Prime channel subscription cannot be cancelled once you have used it. It is a free monthly perk of Amazon Prime, and you can use it again the next month. Twitch says Amazon handles Prime membership and billing, and unlinking Amazon leaves Prime active.
Twitch refunds
- Twitch does not generally refund a channel subscription or Turbo.
- It may refund one when a technical problem affected the purchase or the benefits, when the purchase was fraudulent, or when the law requires it. The decision is Twitch's.
- For a purchase on the website or in the Android app, ask in the Twitch Help Portal. For a recurring subscription, choose Subscriptions, then Refund Request.
- For a purchase in the iOS app, ask Apple.
- If Twitch issues a refund, the money goes back to the original payment method within 10 business days.
