Cancel Fortnite Crew through your PlayStation account settings

You cancel Fortnite Crew on PS4 by going into your PlayStation Network account settings, not through the Fortnite game itself. The subscription sits in your PSN wallet, so PlayStation handles the cancellation. You will need to sign into your PS4 console or visit the PlayStation website with the account that pays for Fortnite Crew.

The fastest way is through your PS4 console. Go to Settings, then Account, then Subscriptions. You will see Fortnite Crew listed if it is active. Select it and choose Cancel Subscription. PlayStation will ask you to confirm — once you do, the subscription stops and you will not be charged again.

If you do not have the PS4 in front of you, sign into your PlayStation Network account on a computer or phone at account.playstation.com. Go to Subscriptions under your profile, find Fortnite Crew, and select the option to cancel. The process is the same either way.

Key Takeaways

  • Fortnite Crew cancellation happens in PlayStation Network settings, not in the Fortnite game menu.
  • You can cancel on your PS4 console through Settings > Account > Subscriptions, or online at account.playstation.com.
  • Cancellation takes effect when ready, and you will not be charged for the next billing cycle.
  • You keep any V-Bucks or cosmetics you already received from Fortnite Crew even after you cancel.

What happens to your V-Bucks and cosmetics after cancellation

Canceling Fortnite Crew does not remove anything you already own. The V-Bucks that came with your monthly subscription stay in your account, and any exclusive cosmetics (skins, pickaxes, wraps) you unlocked remain yours to use. You straightforward stop receiving the monthly 1,000 V-Bucks and the new cosmetic item each month.

If you had a cosmetic item waiting to be claimed when you cancel, you lose access to it. For example, if Fortnite Crew gives you a new skin on the 15th of each month and you cancel on the 10th, you will not receive that skin. Check what is coming in your next billing cycle before you cancel if you want to make sure you are not missing something you wanted.

Timing your cancellation to avoid an extra charge

Fortnite Crew renews on the same date each month that you first subscribed. If you subscribed on the 5th, it charges you again on the 5th of the next month. Canceling before that date stops the charge from going through.

If you cancel after the charge has already posted, you cannot get that month refunded through PlayStation. You would need to contact PlayStation Support directly and explain the situation, but refunds are not may provide. The safest approach is to cancel a few days before your renewal date if you know you do not want to continue.

You can check your next billing date in the same Subscriptions menu where you cancel. Look at the details for Fortnite Crew and it will show you when the next charge is scheduled.

If you cannot find Fortnite Crew in your subscriptions

If Fortnite Crew does not appear in your PlayStation subscriptions list, it may have already been canceled, or it might be tied to a different PSN account. Check that you are signed into the correct account — if you have multiple accounts on your PS4, Fortnite Crew could be under a different one.

Another possibility is that you are paying for Fortnite Crew through Epic Games directly rather than through PlayStation. In that case, you would cancel it through the Epic Games website by signing into your Epic account, going to Account Settings, then Subscriptions, and canceling from there. The payment method matters — if you used a credit card through Epic instead of your PlayStation wallet, the cancellation happens in a different place.

Restarting Fortnite Crew later if you change your mind

You can restart Fortnite Crew at any time after canceling. Open Fortnite on your PS4, go to the Item Shop, and look for the Fortnite Crew option. It will show you the subscription details and a button to restart it. You will be charged when ready for that month, and your subscription will renew on the same date going forward.

There is no penalty for canceling and restarting — you can do this as many times as you want. Some players cancel during months when the cosmetic item does not appeal to them and restart the following month when it does.

Contacting PlayStation Support if cancellation does not work

If you followed the steps to cancel but the subscription is still active or you were charged after canceling, contact PlayStation Support. Go to support.playstation.com, select your region, and start a chat or call. Have your account email and the date you attempted to cancel ready.

PlayStation Support can see the cancellation request in your account history and can process a refund if you were charged after you canceled. Response times vary, but most issues are resolved within a few business days. Keep any confirmation messages or screenshots of your cancellation attempt to show them if needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I lose my V-Bucks if I cancel Fortnite Crew?

No. The V-Bucks you received as part of your subscription stay in your account permanently. You only stop receiving the monthly 1,000 V-Bucks that come with an active subscription.

Can I get a refund if I cancel mid-month?

PlayStation does not refund partial months for subscription cancellations. If you cancel after being charged, contact PlayStation Support with your cancellation date and they may issue a refund depending on how long ago the charge posted.

Will canceling Fortnite Crew affect my Fortnite account or progress?

No. Canceling the subscription does not delete your account, remove your cosmetics, or affect your game progress in any way. You can still play Fortnite normally.

What if I cancel but get charged again the next month?

Contact PlayStation Support when ready with proof of your cancellation attempt. They can reverse the charge and confirm the subscription is canceled. Keep screenshots of your subscription settings showing the cancellation.

Is there a difference between canceling on PS4 versus the PlayStation website?

No. Both methods cancel the same subscription. Use whichever is more convenient for you — the result is identical.
