How to Cancel STARZ on Amazon Prime in 2026

Quick answer: If your STARZ subscription is billed through Prime Video, Amazon's current help says you can cancel it from Manage Your Subscriptions by finding the add-on and selecting Unsubscribe. The most important thing is to make sure you are cancelling the STARZ add-on channel, not your full Prime membership or Prime Video subscription by mistake.

This is one of those tasks that sounds bigger than it is. The real confusion usually comes from Amazon having multiple subscription layers at once: Prime membership, Prime Video, and Prime Video add-on channels like STARZ. If you separate those layers first, the cancellation path becomes much easier.

How to cancel STARZ on Amazon Prime in 2026

Amazon's current help for Prime Video add-on subscriptions says to do the following:

Open Manage Your Subscriptions.
Select Subscriptions from the top menu.
Find the STARZ add-on subscription.
Select Unsubscribe.
Confirm the cancellation.

That is the current official path Amazon exposes for add-on channel cancellation.

What should you check before you cancel?

Before you click cancel, check that the charge really belongs to the STARZ add-on and not to something broader.

Prime membership: this is the broader Amazon Prime subscription.
Prime Video subscription: this is different from a specific add-on channel.
STARZ add-on: this is the channel subscription you want to stop.

If you cancel the wrong layer, you can end up changing more than you meant to.

What if you do not recognize the STARZ charge?

Amazon's current Prime Video unknown-charge help says to first check whether the charge was simply a renewal of a Prime membership, Prime Video subscription, or related subscription.

That means a "mystery STARZ charge" is not automatically fraud. It may just be an auto-renewed add-on that was left active.

What happens after you cancel?

The key practical point is that canceling the add-on stops that STARZ add-on subscription path. It does not automatically mean you canceled Prime membership or Prime Video itself.

This is why the add-on-specific cancellation path is more useful than broad Prime-cancellation instructions for this query.

Do you need to cancel Prime Video itself?

Usually no, not if your only goal is to stop paying for STARZ. Amazon has a separate help page for canceling Prime Video itself, which is useful only when you are trying to end the larger video subscription layer rather than the STARZ channel add-on.

For most readers, this distinction is the entire point of the page.

Bottom line

To cancel STARZ on Amazon Prime in 2026, use the current official Prime Video add-on path: go to Manage Your Subscriptions, open Subscriptions, find STARZ, and choose Unsubscribe. Before you do it, make sure the recurring charge is really the STARZ add-on and not a broader Prime or Prime Video renewal.
