Things to Consider Before You Cancel Audible
Before you cancel your subscription, Audible will try to understand why and offer some recommendations, deals, and assistance to keep you as a customer. These include:
Remaining Credits
Do you still have any remaining credits?
You'll want to use these because after you cancel you will lose access to your member benefits and all credits at the end of your final billing period. Helpfully, Audible will remind you if you have unused credits:
Exchange Audible Books

This guarantee means if you didn't love one of your listens, you can exchange it for another. We've put together the following guide to help with this: How to Return or Exchange Audible Audiobooks. Audible will also notify you of this before you finish canceling:

Contacting Customer Care
Are you wanting to cancel Audible because of unresolved issues e.g. technical problems?

How to Pause Audible Membership
Instructions to Pause Audible Membership
An alternative to canceling is to pause your Audible membership.
Perhaps, like me, you've been accumulating credits. Whatever the reason, Audible members with monthly plans can pause their account one time every 12 months. That pause can be anywhere between one to three months. For membership plans that don't earn credits, this feature is not available.
To pause your Audible membership, follow these instructions:
1. Go to the Account Details page on the Audible desktop site.
2. Click "Pause Membership" at the bottom of the "Membership details" section.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions and steps to pause your Audible membership.
Note: if you don't see an option to pause your membership or if you are not eligible to pause your membership through self-service (like me – see screenshot below), you need to contact Audible Customer Service. Contact options include chat, phone, and email. I paused my Audible membership by contacting customer service via chat and the process took no longer than 5 minutes.
4. When done, Audible sent me the below confirmation email confirming my Audible membership was on pause:
Things to Consider Before You Pause Audible
As per the above email, when pausing your Audible membership you should be aware of the following:
- While on pause you won't be billed for your membership and you can still use your remaining credits. However, you will not have access to the Audible Plus Catalog until your membership resumes.
- You will still be able to listen to the titles you added to your library with credits, and purchase individual titles at Audible.com without membership. Your username and password will stay the same.
- You can change your mind about pausing and resume membership anytime you would like.
