How to cancel ESPN Unlimited or ESPN Select

TL;DR

• Difficulty: 2/5
• Time estimate: 3 minutes

Both tiers run through the same ESPN account system, so the cancellation flow is identical. Unlimited is $31.99/mo and Select is $13.99/mo as of September 2026.

Step-by-step

On the web (fastest):

1. Log in at espn.com.
2. Open your profile menu → My Subscriptions → Manage (or go straight to ESPN's subscription management page).
3. Select Cancel Subscription.
4. Follow the prompts to confirm.

In the ESPN app: Settings → Subscriptions → Cancel Subscription.

Billing-specific instructions:

• Billed through the Disney Bundle (Disney+/Hulu/ESPN Select): Cancel in your Disney+ account under Subscription, not at espn.com.
• Billed through Apple: iPhone/iPad → Settings → your name → Subscriptions → ESPN → Cancel Subscription.
• Billed through Google Play: Play Store → profile icon → Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions → ESPN → Cancel subscription.
• Billed through Roku: Roku home → highlight the ESPN channel → press * → Manage subscription → Cancel subscription.
• Billed through Amazon: Cancel in your Amazon account under Memberships & Subscriptions.

Traps to expect

• The downgrade detour: Canceling Unlimited steers you toward dropping to Select ($13.99/mo) instead. That is a legitimate option if you only watch ESPN Select (formerly ESPN+) content, but don't click through it on autopilot if you meant to cancel outright.
• Annual plans: Canceling stops renewal; the remaining months are not refunded. Time your cancellation for shortly before renewal.
• Pay-TV access: If you get ESPN Unlimited through a YouTube TV or cable login at no extra charge, there is nothing to cancel. Just sign out of the ESPN app.

After you cancel

• You keep streaming until the end of the current billing period.
• Your profiles and favorites persist on the account; Disney accounts stay intact after canceling.

Coming back

Resubscribe at espn.com. Check the Disney Bundle Trio first: $21.99/mo with ads gets you ESPN Select alongside Disney+ and Hulu, which beats standalone Select if you want all three.
