What is MUBI
Service overview
MUBI is a subscription streaming service focused on curated films, classics and festival titles. It offers a rotating selection of movies and a dedicated app for many devices.
How it applies in Nigeria
In Nigeria, MUBI is available via its website and through app stores on mobile and TV devices. Pricing and billing may appear in USD or local currency, depending on the platform.
How to cancel MUBI
Cancel when you subscribed on the web (direct via MUBI site)
- Sign in at MUBI.
- Go to Account → Subscription (or Account settings → Subscription).
- Choose the cancel option; confirmation will appear and you will retain access until the end of the paid period.
Cancel when you subscribed via Apple App Store
- Open your device Settings or the App Store app and go to your Apple ID → Subscriptions.
- Find the MUBI subscription and select Cancel Subscription.
- Do not attempt to cancel from the MUBI app or website - Apple handles billing for App Store subscriptions.
Cancel when you subscribed via Google Play or other third-party platforms
- Open the Google Play Store → Menu → Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions.
- Select MUBI and tap Cancel subscription.
- If your subscription was bought through another third party, manage it through that platform’s subscription settings.
What happens when you cancel
Access after cancellation
If you cancel a paid subscription directly via MUBI, you will generally retain access to MUBI until the end of your current paid billing period.
Renewal and future billing
Canceling stops future automatic renewals. Charges should not continue after cancellation, but platform-managed subscriptions (Apple/Google) must be cancelled within those platforms.
Account and data
Canceling a subscription does not necessarily delete your MUBI account or viewing history. If you want data removed, contact MUBI support and follow their account-deletion procedures.
Will I get a refund?

MUBI’s stated policy is that subscriptions are non‑refundable and there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods, except at MUBI’s sole discretion or if required by law.
Exceptions and errors
- MUBI may assist if a charge was made in error - this is handled case by case.
- If you were charged through Apple or Google, you may also request a refund via their receipts/support processes.
- Where local law requires a refund, MUBI’s policy is subject to that law.

Your consumer rights in Nigeria
General legal context
MUBI’s terms do not mention a 14‑day withdrawal right; digital subscription services often lose cooling‑off rights once access is provided.
Local protections and remedies
- Nigerian consumer protection law may still provide remedies for unfair contract terms, erroneous charges, or misrepresentation.
- If you believe you were charged unfairly, you can contact local consumer protection agencies or the platform (Apple/Google) that processed the payment.
- Where applicable law requires refunds, MUBI’s “no refund” policy may be overridden by statute.
Customer experiences
Positive reports
- Some users said cancelling a free trial successfully prevented further charges and praised MUBI’s film selection and helpful support during trials.
- There are reports of quick refunds in isolated cases when mistaken charges occurred.
Negative reports
- Many complaints describe continued billing after cancelling and difficulty finding or using cancellation options.
- Other common issues include slow or unhelpful customer service and occasional playback or app performance problems.
Documentation checklist
What to gather before contacting support
- Account email and username used for MUBI.
- Receipt or transaction ID showing the charge (from MUBI, Apple, or Google Play).
- Date of cancellation attempt and screenshots of subscription screens if available.
Additional items to help refunds or disputes
- Proof of cancellation confirmation (email or on‑screen confirmation).
- Any correspondence with MUBI support or platform support.

Common mistakes
Attempting to cancel in the wrong place
Many users try to cancel inside the MUBI app even when the subscription was billed by Apple or Google Play. If you subscribed through an app store, cancel through that store.
Assuming immediate refunds
MUBI’s policy states no refunds for partial periods. Expect to retain access until period end and that refunds are not guaranteed unless a billing error occurred or local law requires it.
