Does the Hulu free trial charge you automatically?

Yes. If you do not cancel before the trial ends, Hulu is charged automatically (about about $9.99/month (ad-supported)).

Can I cancel Hulu right after signing up and keep the trial?

Usually yes — most services let you keep full trial access until the end date even after you cancel, so cancelling early is the safest move.

Where to cancel the Hulu trial

The trap to avoid

Watch out: Hulu is merging into Disney+; a trial may bill through Disney. Cancel through whichever account holds the subscription, and deleting the app never cancels.

Smartest move

Confirm which account (Hulu or Disney) actually bills you before the trial ends, or you may cancel the wrong one.
