How to Cancel STARZ in 2026 (Check Where You Subscribed First)
STARZ costs $9.99/month and the cancellation process is completely different depending on where you subscribed. If you cancel in the wrong place, nothing happens and you keep getting charged. Here's every method.
Step 1: Figure Out Where You Subscribed
Check your bank/credit card statement. The charge will tell you who's billing you:
- "STARZ" or "Lionsgate" → subscribed directly at starz.com
- "AMZN" or "Amazon" → subscribed through Amazon Prime Video Channels
- "APPLE.COM/BILL" → subscribed through Apple TV app
- "GOOGLE" → subscribed through Google Play
- "ROKU" → subscribed through Roku
- "HULU" → subscribed as a Hulu add-on
- Your cable company name → subscribed through cable/satellite

Cancel STARZ on Cable/Satellite
If STARZ is part of your cable package:
- Call your cable provider directly
- Ask to remove the STARZ add-on from your package
- Common providers: Xfinity (1-800-934-6489), Spectrum (1-833-267-6094), DirecTV (1-800-531-5000)
- This usually takes effect at the next billing cycle
Is STARZ Worth $9.99/Month?
STARZ has a smaller library than most streaming services but punches above its weight in certain genres:
- Strengths: Power, Outlander, BMF, P-Valley, Spartacus — strong original shows
- Weakness: Smaller movie library than Netflix, Hulu, or Peacock
- Best strategy: Subscribe when a new season of your show drops, binge, cancel — classic "churn and return"
The $2.99 Trick
STARZ frequently offers promotional pricing — often as low as $2.99/month for 3-6 months. If you're on the fence:
- Cancel first — let the subscription lapse
- Wait for a promotional email or check starz.com for deals
- Resubscribe at the promotional rate
- This works especially well around Black Friday and during summer
🎯 Bottom Line
Check your bank statement to find who bills you, then cancel through that platform — not starz.com (unless that's where you subscribed). Access continues until the billing period ends. Pro tip: cancel and wait for a $2.99/month promotional offer to resubscribe.
