Refunds, downgrades, pausing and your data

Four questions people ask before they cancel
Can I get my money back?

Amazon's accessible current US cancellation guidance does not promise an automatic refund. Check the refund eligibility shown in the signed-in cancellation flow or contact Amazon Customer Service.

Case by case
Is there a cheaper way to stay?

Eligible customers can enroll in Prime Access or Prime for Young Adults, but eligibility must be established and cancellation does not automatically move the account to those plans.

Can I pause instead of cancel?

The reviewed current US Prime membership and cancellation pages do not document a general pause option.

What happens to my account data?

Ending Prime leaves the Amazon account open. Closing the Amazon account is a separate permanent action that cannot be undone or restored and affects Amazon services and digital content tied to it.
