TikTok Live subscriptions give fans the chance to support their favorite creators, enjoy exclusive perks like subscriber-only chats, and get special badges. However, there may come a time when you no longer want to keep paying for a subscription. Maybe you want to cut down on expenses, or perhaps you simply no longer follow that creator. Whatever the reason, canceling a TikTok Live subscription is a straightforward process—but the exact steps depend on the platform where you first subscribed.
Understanding TikTok Live Subscription
TikTok Live subscriptions work like recurring monthly payments. When you subscribe to a creator during their live stream, the subscription renews automatically until you cancel it. Subscriptions can be purchased either:
- On iOS (Apple App Store)
- On Android (Google Play Store)
- On TikTok Web (desktop browser)
Since the payment system is tied to the platform where you subscribed, you must cancel through that same platform.
How to Cancel TikTok Live Subscription on iPhone (iOS)
If you subscribed using an iPhone or iPad, your payments are processed by the Apple App Store. Here’s how to cancel:
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
- Tap on your Apple ID name at the top.
- Select Subscriptions from the menu.
- Find TikTok in the list of active subscriptions.
- Tap Cancel Subscription.
- Confirm your choice.
Once done, your subscription will remain active until the end of the current billing cycle but will not renew.
How to Cancel TikTok Live Subscription on Android
If you used an Android device, your payments go through the Google Play Store. To cancel:
- Open the Google Play Store app on your device.
- Tap your profile icon in the top-right corner.
- Select Payments & subscriptions.
- Choose Subscriptions.
- Find TikTok in the list.
- Tap Cancel subscription and confirm.
Your subscription will stop renewing after the current billing period.
How to Cancel TikTok Live Subscription on Web (Desktop Browser)
If you subscribed through TikTok Web, you can cancel directly from the website.
- Open TikTok Web and log in.
- Click your profile picture in the top-right corner.
- Go to Settings.
- Select Subscriptions.
- Find the creator you subscribed to.
- Click Cancel Subscription and confirm.
Things to Keep in Mind
- Canceling a subscription does not issue a refund. You’ll still have access until the billing period ends.
- If you want to subscribe again in the future, you can do so by revisiting the creator’s live stream.
- If you don’t see TikTok in your subscription list, double-check the platform (Apple, Google, or TikTok Web) where you initially subscribed.
