Heads up: This info is researched by AI and not guaranteed to be accurate. Companies change their cancellation and retention processes at any time. There is always a risk that following these steps could result in your account being cancelled rather than receiving a discount. Proceed at your own discretion.
How to unlock this discount
Log in to your Discovery+ account at discoveryplus.com using the same method you originally subscribed (web, Roku, Apple, etc.) — the offer is most reliably triggered via the website.
Navigate to your Account settings (click your profile icon, then 'Account').
Select 'Cancel Subscription' or 'Manage Subscription' to enter the cancellation flow.
When prompted to choose a reason for leaving, select 'Too expensive' or 'Cost' — this is the trigger that routes you to the retention/save offer screen.
Discovery+ will present a retention offer screen (typically $1.99/mo or $2.99/mo for 3 months). Do NOT click 'Continue to cancel'.
Review the discount offer and click 'Accept offer' or 'Keep my subscription' to lock in the discounted rate and remain subscribed.
Insider Tips
Always select 'Too expensive' or 'Price' as your cancellation reason — this is the most reliable trigger for a price-based retention offer
If the first offer shown is $2.99/mo, try declining it once to see if a better $1.99/mo offer appears
Do not rush through the screens; pause on each screen to allow dynamic offers to load
If you subscribed through a third party (Apple, Google Play, Roku, Amazon), you may need to cancel directly through the Discovery+ website to see the retention offer, as third-party billing sometimes bypasses the save flow
