Cancellation Minecraft Realms: Easy Method

What is Minecraft Realms

Service overview

Minecraft Realms is Mojang/Microsoft’s official subscription service for hosting private Minecraft worlds. It provides a managed server-like experience with automatic backups and simple invite controls.

Who uses it

Realms is aimed at casual players, families and small groups who want an easy-to-manage private world without running a dedicated server. It is available across platforms depending on the edition purchased.

How to cancel Minecraft Realms

General rule

Cancel the subscription through the store or platform you used to buy Realms (Apple App Store, Google Play, Microsoft/Xbox store or PlayStation). Realms cannot be cancelled from an external site unless the purchase was made there.

Step-by-step by platform

  • Apple App Store (iOS): Open Settings > tap your name > Subscriptions > select Minecraft Realms > Cancel Subscription.
  • Google Play: Open Play Store > Profile > Payments & subscriptions > Subscriptions > select Minecraft Realms > Cancel subscription.
  • Microsoft / Xbox store: Sign in to account.microsoft.com or your Xbox profile > Services & subscriptions > find Minecraft Realms > Manage > Cancel.
  • PlayStation: Go to Account Management > Subscriptions > find Realms (if purchased via PS Store) > Cancel automatic renewal.
  • If you can’t access the original device or account, you may need to contact your bank to stop future payments or locate the subscription link from your purchase email or store account.
  • Do not rely on a site “Pause” button to stop billing; some users report continued charges after pausing.
  • After cancelling you will retain access until the end of the current billing period.

What happens when you cancel

Access and billing

When you cancel, your subscription stops renewing at the next billing date. You keep access to the Realm until the current paid period ends.

Data and world files

World backups remain available while the subscription is active. After access ends, Mojang may remove Realm data according to their retention policies - export your world before expiry if you want to keep it.

Will I get a refund?

Standard refund policy

Minecraft Realms subscriptions are generally not eligible for full or partial refunds for unused time. Default policy is no refund unless provider error occurred.

Exceptions and regional notes

  • Refunds may be considered if Mojang/Microsoft are at fault (service failure) or in narrow cases like duplicate accidental purchases.
  • If you purchased on the Microsoft Marketplace and cancelled immediately, a refund request may be possible within a short window (for example, within 72 hours) - see Microsoft support for details.
  • EU/EFTA 14‑day cooling-off rights do not apply to South Africa; local consumer law differs.

For Microsoft-specific refund queries see: Microsoft Community thread on accidental Realm purchase.

Minecraft Realms plans and pricing

Published South African prices

Below are prices confirmed from South Africa’s iOS App Store. Other stores may show prices in USD or regional estimates.

Notes on platform differences

Realms (Bedrock) - You + 2 Friends R79.99 Monthly Basic Realms subscription via iOS App Store
Realms Plus (Bedrock) - You + 10 Friends R159.99 Monthly Includes Realms Plus with Marketplace content via iOS App Store

Your consumer rights in South Africa

Relevant law

Digital subscriptions in South Africa are governed by the Consumer Protection Act (CPA) and related regulations. Suppliers must provide fair, transparent terms for subscriptions.

Practical remedies

  • You are entitled not to be misled about cancellation mechanics or refunds.
  • If the supplier fails to provide the service as agreed (for example persistent downtime or billing errors), you may seek remedies such as cancellation without penalty or partial refund.
  • Disputes can be brought to the National Consumer Commission or Small Claims Court if informal resolution fails.

Customer experiences

Positive feedback

Some players appreciate Realms for its convenience and managed hosting, which simplifies playing with friends and family.

Realms Plus is valued by users who want bundled Marketplace content alongside hosting.

Negative feedback

  • Many users report server downtime, world access issues and occasional corruption or loss.
  • Complaints include confusing cancellation flows and continued billing after cancellation or “pause.”
  • Customer support responsiveness is frequently criticised in public reviews.

For community reviews and reported issues see: Trustpilot - account.mojang.com reviews and Trustpilot - mojang.com reviews.

Documentation checklist

What to gather before cancelling

  • Account email or username used to buy Minecraft Realms.
  • Proof of purchase or receipt (store purchase history or email).
  • Payment method details (last 4 digits of card, PayPal email, etc.).
  • Device or console used to make the purchase (if applicable).

Additional items to prepare

  • Exported world backup or world download (if you want to keep your world).
  • Any support case numbers or correspondence with Mojang/Microsoft support.

Common mistakes

Relying on “Pause” to stop charges

Some users assume the website “Pause” button halts billing. Reports indicate this may not stop renewal - always cancel in the store if you want to end billing.

Attempting to cancel from the wrong account

Cancelling requires the same store account used for purchase. Trying to cancel from a different platform or account can fail silently and leave charges active.

Comparative recap

Quick comparison

Below is a short comparison of Realms against common alternatives to help decide next steps.

Feature Minecraft Realms Alternative (self-host / third‑party host)
Ease of setup Very simple; managed by Mojang/Microsoft Varies; requires more technical setup or provider configuration
Reliability Mixed - reported downtime and support issues Can be more reliable if using reputable hosts or self-managed servers
Cost (approx) Fixed subscription (see pricing table) Ranges from cheaper to more expensive depending on host/specs
Control over backups & mods Limited; managed backups and no server-side mods on Realms High; full control with self-hosting or many third‑party hosts

After cancelling
