Would you get to keep your movies post Prime cancellation?
Here is what you should know further:-
If you have rented any titles, you can keep them for 30 days or more, depending on your viewing period. Once you begin to watch the content, you will have 48 hours to complete them. If you have purchased any movie or show titles before canceling your Prime subscription, you can keep them for a long time. But in case of licensing restrictions or expiry, you may not be able to view them any longer. Opting out of Prime benefits also means you may no longer be able to avail of the Prime Video 30-day promotional free trial feature.
The channels segment is a third-party premium service and hence, you will have to pay separately to watch your favorite content. Binge on those shows and movies that you had always wanted to catch up on by paying a specific amount. However, without your Prime subscription, you may not be able to avail yourself of these services. You can cancel them at any given point in time. You can also use the free-trial feature, if applicable.
Canceling Accidental Title Purchases/Rentals
You can cancel these processes, if you have not begun to consume the content, within the time limit of 48 hours. All you need to do is visit the ‘Your Orders’ section and choose the title you would like to undo the purchase for. Select your reason and complete this process. Your refund will be issued to your payment source via the method used. But, in case of payment made through Apple devices, you will have to skim-and-scan through the relevant page on the website or the app, to understand your options.
It is officially the holiday season and there’s no better time to beat the winter blues and cash in on the festive season with your close ones, by binging on your favorite content. Or feel free to update yourselves with news updates from various websites and cherry-pick your movies/shows. It is not easy, we know!
Conclusion
So, if you are concerned about retaining your movie collection, post-canceling your Prime subscription, no worries. If you have purchased them before ending your Prime subscription, you can keep them for sure. However, your rented titles would expire with the period deadline.
- What are Prime Video bundles?
These are multiple titles that you can purchase, at one go, instead of spending on individual titles. An example would include the Harry Potter series.
- Can I pay through my Apple device?
Yes, you can. If you are using Prime Video on any iOS device, and are subscribed to Prime Video or do not have any valid 1-click payment method or any other billing address, you can use the payment method selected in your iTunes and App store settings.

No, it is not mandatory. You can always purchase or rent specific titles available on the storefront. You would only be unable to utilize the benefits that Prime members enjoy.
If you cancel your Prime subscription, you would lose your access to the exclusive benefits that Prime subscribers enjoy. However, you can still catch your favorite content on Prime Video.

As long as you have valid billing address details that are verifiable, you can access your account from any part of the world. However, the content may be subjected to certain geographical restrictions. Hence, your viewing experiences may differ with your location.
