How To Cancel Paypal Subscription

Many websites and other businesses give their customers the ability to subcribe to a magazine or other recurring service using the subscription option at PayPal. Every month, or at the end of each specified time period, PayPal automatically generates payment from your account in order to pay for the subscription. In some cases, the account may be through another company, but because payment automatically comes from PayPal, it can be confusing when you want to cancel a PayPal subscription. This article will provide you with some practical steps you can take to stop the automatic payment.

Steps:

 Cancel Your Subscription from the PayPal Website

1. Log in to your PayPal account.
2. 

   Click history under "My Account"
   Click "History" under "My Account" at the top of the page.
3. Start a search and change the dates so you start the search from the date before you started your subscription.
4. Use the filter drop down to select "subscriptions".
5. Click "Details".
6. 

   Middle button at bottom of page
   Click "Cancel Subscription". This button appears at the bottom of the page.
7. Confirm the choice by clicking "Cancel Subscription" again.

Go to the Vendor's Website to Cancel Your Subscription

1.  Determine whether you can cancel your PayPal subscription through the vendor offering the service or product. Cancellation policies vary by website, so you may need to visit the website in order to find out this information. 
   
2. Follow the directions provided by the company in order to cancel the subscription. In some cases, a customer service representative may be able to cancel it for you over the phone.
   

Tips:

• You can change the payment options on your subscription at the PayPal website, if you just want to have payment come out of a different account. Look for the "Pay List" in the "Financial Information" section of your PayPal profile, find the name of the merchant and look for the option to change the "Funding Source."
• There may be a slight variation in the location or wording for some of the steps. If you need help, contact PayPal customer service.
