Cancel EVE Online: Step-by-Step Instructions

Follow these steps to cancel your EVE Online subscription. The process works for most players billed directly through CCP Games.

01

Log in to your EVE account

Go to the EVE Online website and sign in with your account credentials. Make sure you're using the same account that has the active subscription.

02

Access Account Management

Once logged in, click on your character name in the top right corner, then select Account Management from the dropdown menu.

03

Go to Billing section

In Account Management, look for the Billing or Subscription tab on the left side menu and click it to view your current subscription details.

04

Cancel your subscription

Find your active Omega subscription and click Cancel Subscription or Turn Off Auto-Renewal. This prevents future charges while keeping current access.

05

Confirm cancellation

Review the cancellation details and confirm. You'll receive an email confirmation, and your Omega status will continue until the current billing period ends.

EVE Online-specific things to know

EVE Online subscriptions work differently depending on your payment method and account type. These tips cover common situations.

Your Omega time continues until expiration
Cancelling turns off auto-renewal but doesn't immediately end your subscription. You keep Omega benefits until your current billing period expires.
Alpha accounts are automatically free
If you never subscribed to Omega, you don't need to cancel anything. Alpha clone accounts are free to play with limited ship access.
PLEX subscriptions work differently
If you use PLEX for Omega time, there's no recurring subscription to cancel. You manually activate PLEX as needed from your in-game inventory.

Before you cancel, keep this in mind

These details can affect your cancellation timing and what happens to your account afterward.

1. Check who's billing you

If you signed up through Steam or another platform, you may need to cancel through them instead of the EVE website.

2. You'll revert to Alpha clone status

After Omega expires, you become an Alpha clone with restricted ship access and skill training. Your skills remain but some become unusable.

3. Consider the skill queue

Alpha clones can only train skills up to 5 million skill points. Plan your skill queue accordingly before your Omega time expires.

Before you cancel completely

If you're taking a break from EVE, you might prefer these alternatives to cancelling your Omega subscription outright.

Switch Your Billing Cycle

EVE Online offers monthly and longer-term Omega subscriptions with significant savings.

6-month plans save about 15% compared to monthly billing

Alternative ways to cancel EVE Online

If you can't cancel through your EVE account, you may need to go through one of these methods. The right option depends on how you're being billed.

TV Provider / Reseller

If you subscribed through Steam or another gaming platform, cancel through that service instead.

Common platforms that sell EVE Online subscriptions:

  • Steam - Cancel through Steam wallet and subscription management

  • Green Man Gaming - Contact their customer support

  • Humble Bundle - Check your Humble account for subscription options
