How to cancel Amazon India Prime membership

Canceling Amazon Prime membership is quite simple and the process is completed in a few steps. Amazon offers many benefits to its Prime customers. These include one-day and two-day delivery, access to regular sales and lightning deals before non-Prime members, and no minimum order requirement for standard delivery. Prime members of this US company also get many other benefits. These include Prime Music, Prime Video and Prime Reading. The company also offers same-day delivery to Prime members for eligible destinations.

If you want to cancel your Prime membership for any reason, you can do so. One big reason could be its price. In India, this membership is available at a fee of Rs 329 per three months or Rs 999 per year. However, it is much cheaper in India than in the US. In the US, this membership is available at a fee of $12.99 (about Rs 960) per month. Its annual fee there is $119 (about Rs 8,760). At this price, you may not want to be associated with it.

It is worth noting here that the subscription will continue for the same period from the date for which you have subscribed, even after cancelling it. This means that for example, if you have subscribed for three months and you want to cancel it after one month, then it will continue for two months even after that. Therefore, the benefit of cancelling the subscription is that after the completion of the period, when the auto renewal time comes, the subscription stops at that time and auto renewal stops. However, customers can ask its customer service department to cancel the subscription through Amazon’s app or website.

If you want to cancel your subscription manually through your mobile app or computer, follow these steps.
