How to sign up for Google Play Pass and cancel Google Play Pass
Google Play Pass is finally here and quite competitively priced, allowing you to unlock premium games and apps for the price of a Pumpkin Spice Latte. While the list of available titles right now is small, there are still some compelling apps and games to gain from it. Here’s how to grab your Play Pass and say goodbye to ads and paywalls.
How to sign up for Google Play Pass
- Open Google Play.
- Tap the three-line menu icon in the top left corner of the screen or swipe in from the left side of the screen.
- Click Play Pass. If you don’t see this option, the server-side rollout for Play Pass hasn’t reached your device yet. Try again later.
- Tap Start free trial.
- Confirm that your payment method is the one you want to use before tapping Subscribe.
- Type in the password for your Google account.
- Tap Verify.
Now you’re all set up and ready to play your heart out. There are hundreds of games and apps to explore, and everyone in your Google Family Group can use Play Pass, too, which makes the $5/month even more of a bargain for parents and the $2/month promotion running until October 10 an absolute steal.
How to cancel Google Play Pass
Play Pass has a few hundreds apps and games in it at launch, but to be honest, the selection here leaves something to be desired, especially on the app side of things. If you tried Play Pass but aren’t seeing much benefit for it, here’s how to cancel your subscription.
How to cancel Play Pass
- Open Google Play.
- Tap the three-line menu icon in the top left corner of the screen or swipe in from the left side of the screen.
- Click Subscriptions.
- Tap Google Play Pass in the subscription list.
- Tap Cancel subscription.
- Click the reason you’re canceling if you want to give Google one. If you don’t want to tell Google the reason, tap Decline to answer.
- Tap Continue.
- A confirmation window will pop up, asking if you’re sure you want to cancel. Tap Cancel subscription.
Google won’t refund you if you’re partway through a billing cycle, but it won’t charge you again. You’ll keep your Play Pass benefits until the current billing cycle or trial period ends, allowing you to keep using the pass in hopes that you’ll change your mind and renew the subscription.
