How to Cancel Hulu on Roku: Everything You Need to Know

Want to cancel your Hulu subscription on Roku? This guide is for you.

Hulu, by far, has the most interesting bundle of entertainment for all ages, and the content comes from major streaming platforms such as Disney+, HBO, Fox Entertainment, and many more. While Hulu has a huge library that can be accessed using the web or streaming devices like Amazon Fire Stick or Roku, a lot of users are still dropping out of their subscriptions, and this is majorly due to the costlier subscription plans. 

While subscribing to Hulu is easy, a lot of people find it difficult to cancel their plan, and by the time they know, they are already charged with the next billing cycle. In this guide, I specifically discuss how to cancel a Hulu subscription on Roku, and this is helpful when you have subscribed using your Roku account or device.

But what is so difficult about canceling Hulu on Roku devices? It is the Roku interface. Unlike most competitors, Roku does not have a friendlier interface, which makes it a lot more difficult to use.

How to Cancel your Hulu Subscription on your Roku Account?

When you have subscribed to Hulu using your Roku account, you can only cancel it using the same service. It is because Roku manages the Hulu subscription when you use your Roku account. However, if you have subscribed directly on Hulu, using the official website or app, and only use the login and stream service on Roku, you can cancel from anywhere.

But how do you know if you have subscribed to Hulu using your Roku account? In this case, you will have to access the “Manage Subscriptions ” option from Roku’s account setting. If you find Hulu as one of the subscriptions, you can use the below steps to cancel Hulu on your Roku account.

• You will be required to log in to your Roku account using a web browser. You can use either the mobile browser or a PC web browser for this.
• Once you log in, move the mouse cursor to the “Welcome [username]” option, and you can find a drop-down menu.
• Choose “Manage your Subscriptions” from the menu, and if you cannot find this option, tap on Account Settings. Here, you will find the option to manage your subscriptions.
• You will now find all the active subscriptions through your Roku account, and you can cancel any subscription by tapping on the unsubscribe option. In this case, we are looking for the Hulu subscription; once you find it, tap on the unsubscribe option to cancel your account.

Once you unsubscribe or cancel Hulu using your Roku account, you can still use it until the end of the active billing period. Once the billing period is complete, your Hulu account subscription will be canceled.

Cancel your Hulu Subscription using the Official Website

Canceling Hulu through the official website is another convenient option for those who have subscribed through the Hulu app or the website itself.

Another advantage is you get to log in to your Hulu account on any streaming device or the Hulu app, unlike subscribing through a Roku account. Also, you get to pause your subscription for a definite time rather than canceling your account, which is great for temporary cancelation.

If you have subscribed to Hulu through the official website, here is how you can cancel your account,

• Navigate to your Hulu account login page and sign in using your account credentials. This can be done using a mobile or a PC with a web browser and stable internet connection.
