Trying to cancel Audible? Avoid the runaround.
Can you cancel your Audible subscription? Check eligibility and conditions
Audible Australia (Audible.com.au) allows you to cancel your membership at any time, with no minimum term or lock-in contract for standard memberships. This applies to monthly plans, annual plans, and free trials.
Key conditions to be aware of:
- Cancel anytime: You can cancel whenever you choose, including during a free trial or after a single billing period.
- Cancel via the correct platform:
- If you subscribed directly via Audible/Amazon, cancel through your Audible account on the website.
- If you subscribed via Apple App Store or Google Play, you must cancel through Apple or Google subscription settings. Audible cannot cancel app-store billed subscriptions for you.
- No cancellation penalties: Audible does not charge fees for cancelling.
- Purchased audiobooks stay yours: Cancelling your membership does not delete your account or remove audiobooks you’ve purchased or redeemed with credits. You keep permanent access to those titles.
- Credits expire on cancellation: Any unused Audible credits are forfeited when your membership ends. Credits have no cash value, so it’s strongly recommended you use them before cancelling.
- Audible vs Amazon Prime: Cancelling Audible does not affect Amazon Prime or other Amazon services.
