How to cancel Nintendo Switch Online

This URL is the cancellation page — you do not have to hunt through settings

Go to the Nintendo Switch Online cancellation page

Cancelling does not cut you off immediately. You keep access until the end of the period you already paid for, so if you have decided not to renew you can cancel straight away without losing anything.

How to cancel

  1. Sign in with the Nintendo account that bought the membership
  2. Select “Nintendo Switch Online”
  3. Under “Current plan”, turn off automatic renewal and confirm

Check these before you cancel

Turn it off at least 48 hours before it expires — any later and the next period is charged.

Cloud save backups stop when the membership ends. Resubscribing within 180 days brings them back; after that they are gone. This is the cost people most often overlook.

Other things worth knowing

You cannot turn it back on afterwards. To continue you have to subscribe again.

What cancelling saves you in a year

Prices verified , with the official page as the final word. Plans and availability vary by region; these are the official Taiwan prices.

Next time, do not rely on memory

People who forget to cancel are not careless — the moment you decide and the moment you are charged are a whole month apart. Add LapseWatch on LINE and send “Nintendo Switch Online 12/25” to record it. No install, no signup.
