How To Unsubscribe From A PayPal Subscription
By admin on Apr 23, 2008 in Blog Money
If you haven’t tried to unsubscribe yourself from a paypal subscription you would think me an idiot to even thin anyone could struggle with this, but it is harder than it should be.
To Unsubscribe From A PayPal Subscription Vist PayPal.com And Click:
- My Account
- History
- Sort by Subscriptions
- Chose the time period for when you first subscribed
- Click “cancel subscription”
People struggle because the “cancel subscription” link only appears if you view the history of the first payment to that subscription, when it would make sense for it to appear next to each payment.

Thanks for that tip! I think paypal also sends an mail to unsubscribe when we open an account…
Thanks for this article!!
Great!
This is working perfectly. I used to have hard time to cancel the subscriber.
I think paypal should do provide better and easy link to do this job.
thanks again!

That ’s useful,
But it ’s seem you are in old version of paypal. Now I have to do like this:
1. Log in to your PayPal account.
2. Click Profile at the top of the page.
3. Click My Preapproved Payments in the Financial Information column
4. Click to transaction you want and click cancel
Hope it ’s useful
It’s only an issue if you don’t trust the automated system of your subscription. I ended my subscription on a game and checked my PayPal just in case it didn’t stop. Some people need to check just as a precaution.
