ESPN+ offers a growing library of sports from ESPN, but you might want a wider selection of content. If you want to know how to cancel your ESPN+ subscription in favor of a different service, this guide will show you everything you need to know.
How to cancel your ESPN+ subscription
You can easily cancel your ESPN+ subscription from any device, but we recommend doing it from a desktop or laptop computer, as apps sometimes offer a limited view of your subscription settings.
1. Click on your profile icon on the top right, and then on “ESPN+ Subscription”

2. On the next screen, click “Manage”

3. Scroll down and select “Cancel Subscription”

4. Click on “Finish”

Can I restart my ESPN+ subscription later?
ESPN+ will let you finish out your current billing cycle or your free trial. After that, you will lose access to all of its content, but you won’t be billed anymore either. Your account information will stay active, however, and you can renew your subscription at any point.
Are there are any good ESPN+ alternatives?
ESPN+ is a sports-focused service that only offers ESPN content. If that’s up your alley, you may want to consider a service that carries ESPN, such as Sling TV, or other options for sports, like Fubo, Hulu + Live TV, YouTube TV, DAZN, or DirecTV Stream.
