How to Cancel Audible Subscription: Step By Step

Audible, owned by Amazon, is a leading audiobook and podcast subscription service. You can buy and stream audiobooks and other spoken word content individually or through a subscription model.

If you are not interested in continuing with the Audible subscription for any particular reason, this guide will assist you with how to cancel an Audible subscription. In addition, you will find out how you can pause the membership temporarily.

Before you go ahead and cancel your Audible membership, take a moment to consider the following factors. They can help you decide whether canceling your Audible subscription is right for you.

1. Remaining credits:

  • Check how many unused credits you have left.
  • Remember that once you cancel your subscription, these credits will be forfeited.
  • To make the most of your subscription, consider using up any remaining credits by purchasing audiobooks before canceling.

2. Value assessment:

  • Evaluate whether you still benefit from your Audible subscription.
  • If you find yourself listening to fewer audiobooks or struggling to find titles that interest you, it may be a sign that the subscription no longer provides the value you expected.

3. Exploring alternatives:

  1. Explore other options \available in the audiobook subscription market.
  2. Services like Scribd and Libro.fm offer alternative platforms with diverse audiobook catalogs. If Audible is not meeting your needs, trying out one of these alternatives might be worth seeing if they better suit your preferences.
