PressReader price (October 2026) and how to cancel
As of 2026-10-18, PressReader Premium is commonly $29.99/month with a 7-day free trial that auto-renews — Confirm subscribe. Cancel by switching to Pay As You Go: My Account → Subscription → Change/Upgrade Subscription → Pay As You Go (How to change/cancel). App Store/Play purchases cancel there.
Switching to Pay As You Go may forfeit remaining days in the current period unless you ask Care to preserve them (pressreader.com/care).
Library card / HotSpot access is not a paid Premium cancel path — only cancel if you have a personal paid plan.
