How to cancel The New York Times
Updated July 6, 2026
Sign in at nytimes.com/account → Subscription overview → Cancel. Chat/phone may be required in some regions; expect a retention offer.
Before you cancel
- Check when your current billing period ends — most subscriptions stay active until then, so cancelling early rarely loses you anything.
- Screenshot or save the cancellation confirmation. If The New York Times charges you again, that's your proof.
- Watch your next statement. Zombie charges after cancellation are common — it's the #1 thing our members ask us to fight.
