Cancel Amazon Student - Here's how

Important information about canceling Amazon Prime Student

Before you cancel your student subscription on Amazon, you should be aware of the exact consequences.

You can currently only cancel your Prime Student subscription with immediate effect. If you canceled the subscription in the first free year, you can only take out the paid, but discounted student subscription.
If you want to use the free Amazon Student subscription until the last day of the term, we recommend that you create a reminder in the calendar.
Alternatively, you can get information from Amazon on the following website at the top right under "Prime membership" 3 days before expiration (see picture).
Keep in mind that you won't have access to Amazon Prime forever. Take advantage of the free first year, you can use Amazon Prime for a maximum of 5 years, even if you are a student for a longer period.

Now a step-by-step guide if you actually want to cancel your Prime account.

Open the Amazon website and click on the "Account and Lists" button on the top right and on "My Account".
Select the "Prime" category here and log into your account if necessary.
In the top center you can see when the Prime subscription is extended. Click on the "Prime membership" item on the right and you will find the "End membership" button.
You can cancel your subscription by clicking the "I waive my Prime benefits" button. Here you can cancel your Prime subscription at the time of the next renewal. Until then, you will still have access to Amazon Prime.
If you already pay for Amazon Prime Student, the immediate cancellation is also worthwhile. In some cases, you can cancel the subscription directly using the "End now" button, so that you receive the outstanding amount back.
