Amazon is undoubtedly the most popular shopping platform for household items, groceries, tech, and more.But as the commerce giant has scaled and adapted within the pandemic climate, so has the price of entry to its Prime membership program.As of March 25, the monthly fee for Prime has increased from$12.99to$14.99, and the annual fee has increased from$119to$139.

For many who rely on the Amazon service's expansive catalog of products and goods and trailblazing delivery times, the price bump may seem negligible and justified.But for those who shop less frequently and/or are simply not willing to pay the extra cash, you're not alone. There are plenty of worthy Amazon Prime alternatives out there that cost significantly less, provide one-to-one services, and are in many ways better. But before you take your money elsewhere, here's a step-by-step guide on how to cancel your Amazon Prime membership first.

  3. You will arrive on a page that shows you how many days of Prime benefits you have left before the next billing. Note that because you've already been charged for your current monthly or annual plan, it's best to wait until the last day to cancel your membership for good. But if you're ready to end it, clickCancel My Benefits.

Getting a refund for your Amazon Prime

If you just recently signed up for an Amazon Prime membership and haven't usedanyof the benefits (Prime shipping, Prime Video, Prime Music, Prime Gaming), then you are eligible for a full refund if you decide to cancel it.

You may also be eligible for a partial refund if you used the benefits but still have more than half of your remaining membership time left. 

The refund should automatically trigger when you cancel your subscription using the instructions above, but we recommend contacting an Amazon customer service associate by phone, email, or online chat to guide you through the process.
