What is DAZN
Overview
DAZN is a subscription-based sports streaming service that offers live and on-demand coverage of sports such as boxing, football (soccer), and MMA.
Subscribers can watch on multiple devices including web browsers, Smart TVs, consoles and mobile apps.
Presence in South Africa
DAZN launched a South Africa-specific offering with official local pricing and plans listed in ZAR on its Help Centre.
Local billing, device support and regional rights determine which events are available in South Africa.
How to cancel DAZN
If you subscribed directly (website, Smart TV, console)
- Sign in to your DAZN account on the web or the device used to subscribe.
- Go to Account > Subscription or Manage Subscription and choose Cancel.
- Monthly cancellations start a 30‑day notice period; annual cancellations end at the end of the billing cycle.
- See official instructions: DAZN cancel subscription (ZA).
If you subscribed via an app store or third party
- Apple App Store: cancel through your Apple ID/iTunes subscription settings or the DAZN app link in your device settings.
- Google Play: cancel in Google Play Store > Subscriptions or follow the redirect from DAZN My Account.
- Amazon (Fire devices): cancel via Amazon account > Memberships & Subscriptions or the device app library.
- When you cancel through a third party, DAZN cannot process the refund - you must use that third party’s cancellation flow.
What happens when you cancel
Access after cancellation
If you cancel a monthly plan subscribed directly, you keep access through the 30‑day notice period.
If you cancel an annual plan signed up directly, access continues until the end of the paid billing cycle.
Renewals and account data
Auto‑renewal stops at the end of the current paid period for direct subscriptions once cancellation completes.
DAZN retains account data in line with its privacy policy; you can sign in again to restart a subscription.
Will I get a refund?
Standard refund and cooling-off rules
DAZN’s Terms describe a 14‑day period for cancellations after purchase in which refunds may apply, subject to deductions described in the Terms.
Within 14 days DAZN’s T&Cs note a cancellation fee (a percentage or capped amount) may be deducted before a refund is issued; consult the Terms for exact calculations.
Third-party purchases and exceptions
If you purchased via Apple, Google, Amazon or used a gift code, refunds must be requested through that provider; DAZN cannot directly refund those purchases.
For DAZN’s written Terms and refund details see: DAZN Terms and Conditions and Request a refund.

Your consumer rights in South Africa
Cooling-off and contract clarity
South African consumer protection requires clear, fair terms and transparent cancellation rights for consumers purchasing subscriptions.
If contractual language is unclear about minimum terms or automatic conversions, that may raise consumer protection questions.
Refunds and third-party billing
If you purchased via a third party (Apple, Google, Amazon), those providers generally control refunds and withdrawal rights for that transaction.
Keep receipts and confirmation emails when disputing charges or requesting refunds under South African consumer law.
Customer experiences
Positive feedback
Some users praise DAZN for high streaming quality and an easy‑to‑use interface, particularly for football and combat sports coverage.
Good streams and device support are commonly cited by satisfied customers.
Negative feedback and common complaints
Many customers report confusion over being moved to long‑term plans or difficulty cancelling through the correct channel.
Complaints also include slow or unresponsive support and billing issues after attempted cancellations; keep records if you experience problems.
Documentation checklist
What to have before you cancel
- Account email and login details.
- Payment method used and the last charged date.
- Order or receipt number for the subscription or event purchase.
Supporting documents for refunds or disputes
- Confirmation emails or screenshots showing the subscription start and any plan type (monthly, annual, saver).
- Correspondence with DAZN support or the third‑party app store.
- Proof of attempted cancellation if charges continued after you cancelled.
Common mistakes
Mistaking the billing provider
A common error is trying to cancel inside the DAZN app when the purchase is billed by Apple, Google or Amazon.
Always check whether DAZN or a store billed you and cancel through the correct provider.
Misunderstanding plan types and timing
Users sometimes assume cancelling is immediate; direct monthly cancellations usually start a 30‑day notice period instead.
Another frequent issue is confusing promotional one‑off purchases (e.g., events) with recurring plans - read the purchase confirmation carefully.
