How to Cancel Twitch Subscription [PC & Mobile]

Cancel Twitch Subscription

You can cancel your Twitch subscription at any time. Log into your account, navigate the Subscription Management Page, and cancel your subscription. If you’re unsure where to find this page or how to cancel the subscription, here is a detailed post to guide you. But first;


Why Should You Cancel Your Twitch Subscription?

There are several reasons why you might want to cancel your Twitch subscription. Some of these reasons include the following:

  • You’re no longer interested in the streamer or their content. If you’ve been a subscriber for a while but now realize that you don’t like the streamer’s content, there’s no point in continuing the subscription.
  • You don’t use it anymore: There is no point in continuing to pay for a subscription you no longer use. Instead, cancel the subscription and channel the funds to other uses.
  • Financial reasons: A Twitch Prime subscription costs $12.99 per month, which isn’t too bad compared to other streaming services like Netflix. However, if you’re on a tight budget and don’t have the extra money for entertainment, then this could be a good reason to cancel your subscription.
  • Bad interaction with the content creator: If you’ve had a bad interaction with a content creator, it may be time to distance yourself from them. If they’re making you feel uncomfortable or if they’re being rude toward you, you should cancel your subscription and move on.

Here’s what happens when you cancel your subscription:

  1. Your subscription will expire at the end of the month. You will continue enjoying all the current subscription benefits, like chat badges and custom access emotes, till the Sub End Date arrives. After that, the benefits will not be available in your account.
  2. You will not be charged for the next month of service if you cancel before the end of the current billing cycle.
  3. You can always resubscribe within 7 days of the cancellation of your subscription plan.

Difference between Subscription and Following

Subscription

 

Twitch Subscription and Twitch Following are two ways to support your favorite streamers on Twitch. While both have their benefits, there are some critical differences between the two:

  • Subscribing to a Twitch channel involves supporting the channel financially by paying a subscription fee. While following a channel on Twitch is a free way of showing support for a channel.
  • A twitch subscriber has access to exclusive content from the broadcaster, including subscriber-only chat rooms and sending out “sub exclusive” emotes to other subscribers. On the other hand, a Twitch follower has no access to chatrooms and cannot interact with other users on the channel.

So, are you a Twitch follower or a subscriber?


Conclusion

Canceling your Twitch subscription plan is a straightforward process. However, the platform you used to subscribe must be the same platform you will use when canceling your plan. Thus, if you subscribed on a PC or Mac, you must use the same platform (PC or Mac) to cancel the subscription.

The same happens when you subscribe through a mobile device. Remember, your subscription plan will remain active until the Sub End Date comes. After that, you will no longer enjoy the perks of being a Twitch subscriber!
