# Unlink AWS Accounts

This tutorial shows how to cancel your AWS subscription by placing a termination order for the specific subscription.

An AWS subscription can be canceled if you no longer require an AWS account through SoftwareOne. This can be done by unlinking the account from your AWS organization. You can unlink all or selected accounts. For instance, if you have an AWS organization with SoftwareOne containing five linked accounts, and you want to remove all or only one of those five accounts, you can unlink the account from the SoftwareOne organization.&#x20;

## Prerequisites <a href="#prerequisites" id="prerequisites"></a>

Before unlinking accounts, ensure the following:

* Your AWS account has up-to-date credit card details or another acceptable payment method listed in its AWS console. This is required by AWS. See [Can I cancel my AWS subscription?](https://docs.platform.softwareone.com/extensions/amazon-web-services/faqs-1/can-i-cancel-my-aws-subscription) to learn more.
* The status of the AWS subscription is active within the Marketplace Platform.
