The Wall Street Journal renews until you cancel. California and some digital subscribers can cancel online in the WSJ Customer Center under Manage Subscriptions; most other subscribers must call 1-800-JOURNAL (1-800-568-7625). App Store or Google Play subscribers cancel through Apple or Google. Cancel a few working days before renewal to avoid the next charge.

FAQ

Can I cancel the WSJ online, or do I have to call?

Online self-cancel in the Customer Center (Manage Subscriptions > Cancel Subscription) is offered to California residents and some digital subscribers. Non-California, print, and international subscribers are generally directed to call Customer Service at 1-800-JOURNAL (1-800-568-7625). Check what your account shows.

I subscribed through the App Store, Google Play, or Amazon — how do I cancel?

If you're billed through Apple, Google, or Amazon, cancel through that platform's subscription settings, not the WSJ Customer Center. Removing it in your WSJ account alone won't stop app-store or third-party billing.

Will I get a refund if I cancel?

WSJ says fees are generally nonrefundable. Monthly/quarterly plans keep access to the end of the current cycle with no refund; annual/semi-annual plans may get a prorated refund for remaining full months, except within the final 30 days. Check current terms.

How far ahead do I need to cancel to avoid the next charge?

Per WSJ's subscriber agreement, cancel a monthly plan at least 5 working days before renewal, or an annual plan at least 10 working days before renewal. Annual subscribers receive at least 30 days' notice of a pending renewal.
