To cancel a BJ’s membership, as of November 2026, the part that stops future charges is turning off Easy Renewal, which BJ’s terms say you can do at the member services desk in a club, on BJs.com, or by calling 800-BJS-CLUB (257-2582). To get money back, BJ’s membership terms say a primary member can cancel at any time and request a refund of the current membership period at a club or by mailed letter, but only the first time. In this guide I walk through both routes, the refund limits, what happens to your rewards and extra cards, and what to check before you cancel.
I wrote this for the store owners and side-hustlers who read Ecommerce Paradise, because a $60 or $120 membership you forgot about is exactly the kind of small leak that adds up across a business. Every rule below comes from BJ’s own membership pages, and anything those pages do not show is marked as not shown on the pages I could load. This is not financial advice, terms change, and you should check the provider before you act.
BJ’s Cancellation at a Glance (November 2026)
Here is the summary. The right-hand column tells you which BJ’s page each answer comes from, so you can check the wording yourself.
| Question | What BJ’s pages say | Source page |
|---|---|---|
| Can I cancel any time? | Primary members can cancel any time and request a refund for the current membership period | Compare memberships page and membership terms |
| Where do I request a refund? | At a BJ’s club, or by letter to BJ’s Wholesale Club, Inc., Attn: Membership, P.O. Box 9157, Marlborough, MA 01752 | Membership terms |
| Is there a refund limit? | No refund for second or subsequent cancellations | Compare memberships page and membership terms |
| Does it auto-renew? | Yes, through Easy Renewal, charged on the first day of the month your membership expires | Membership terms and main membership page |
| How do I stop auto-renew? | The member services desk, BJs.com, or 800-BJS-CLUB, before your renewal billing date | Membership terms |
| What happens to Club+ rewards? | If you cancel the membership entirely, all rewards balances are forfeited | Membership terms |
| What about household cards? | Cancelling the primary membership cancels household and supplemental memberships, with one exception for cancelling without a refund | Membership terms |
| Can I cancel entirely online or by phone? | Not shown for the full membership and refund. Online and phone routes are shown for Easy Renewal | Membership terms |
The short version: turning off auto-renew is easy and has three listed routes, while cancelling for a refund is a club visit or a letter. The sections below explain each, starting with the route most people actually need.
How to Cancel BJ’s Auto-Renew (Easy Renewal)
Most people searching for how to cancel a BJ’s membership want to stop the next yearly charge. BJ’s calls its auto-renew program Easy Renewal, and its membership terms page says enrolling in a membership requires enrolling in Easy Renewal. The same page lists how to opt out.
Step by step
- Find your expiration date. BJ’s says your membership expires on the last day of the month and year shown on your receipts and on the account page at BJs.com.
- Work out your billing date. The charge happens on the first day of the month your membership expires, so a membership expiring in a given month is billed on the 1st of that same month.
- Pick a route. Go to BJs.com, visit the member services desk in your club, or call 800-BJS-CLUB (257-2582).
- Turn Easy Renewal off before the billing date. The terms say to cancel before your renewal billing date, and the main membership page says you can turn auto-renew off any time in your account settings.
- Keep proof. Screenshot the confirmation on BJs.com, or ask for a receipt or reference at the desk or on the phone.
A worked example, an illustration with made-up dates and not a BJ’s example: your receipt says the membership expires in March 2027. Easy Renewal would charge the then-current fee on March 1, 2027, so you should have it switched off before then. I would not wait until the last day of February, because the terms say BJ’s can charge without further notice.
What the pages do not show
The pages I could load do not show click-by-click screens for the BJs.com route or whether the desk needs ID. If you want those details, check your account on BJs.com or ask at the club, and do not trust any third-party steps that claim to show a button path BJ’s itself does not list. For the phone line, the terms page and the help site list Member Care hours of Monday to Friday 8AM to 7PM ET, Saturday 8AM to 6PM ET and Sunday noon to 6PM ET.
One more detail from the terms: the member who opted the membership into Easy Renewal can cancel it, and the primary member can always opt the membership in or out. If you share an account with a spouse or partner, decide who owns that decision before the renewal month.
How to Cancel the Membership Itself and Request a Refund
Turning off auto-renew lets the membership run until its expiration date. Cancelling for a refund ends it now. BJ’s terms say primary members who are dissatisfied can cancel any time and request a refund of fees for the current membership period.
Where the refund request goes
The membership terms say you can request a refund at any BJ’s club, or by letter to BJ’s Wholesale Club, Inc., Attn: Membership, P.O. Box 9157, Marlborough, MA 01752. The terms do not describe a refund request by phone or online, and neither does the compare memberships page. If you would rather not drive or mail a letter, call 800-BJS-CLUB and ask whether another route exists, but treat that as a question, not a promise.
The official BJ’s help site lists the same 800-BJS-CLUB number for membership questions, and the pages I loaded did not show a separate cancellation article there.
A practical order of operations
- Decide whether you want the money back now or want to stop the next charge.
- If you want a refund, go to a club or mail the letter with your membership details.
- Turn off Easy Renewal too if you might keep the membership, so you do not get billed twice in the next cycle.
- Use up or accept the loss of any Club+ rewards first, because they disappear on full cancellation.
- Keep the receipt or confirmation until the refund appears on your payment method.
The refund timeline, whether the refund goes back to the original card, and how sales tax is handled are not shown on the pages I could load. Ask the club when you request it.
BJ’s Membership Refund Rules
This is the section that decides whether the guarantee helps you. As of November 2026, the pages say the following.
The first cancellation
The current period’s fees can be refunded to a primary member who cancels. BJ’s lists a 100% satisfaction or money-back guarantee on its membership pages. Because the amount, any proration and any deadline are not given, I read it as a refund of the fee you paid for the current period, but I would confirm that at the desk.
The second and later cancellations
The terms say plainly that refunds will not be paid for second or subsequent cancellations. So if you cancel, rejoin, and cancel again, the second cancellation gets no refund. That is the single most useful rule to know before you sign up a second time.
Who gets the refund, and what is excluded
Only the primary member receives membership fee refunds. The terms also say upgrade fees and add-on fees will not be refunded, and they name pickup, curbside, same-day delivery and Same-Day Select fees as examples.
That matters for Club+. Club is $60 a year and Club+ is $120 a year on BJ’s own pages, and my guide to BJ’s membership cost covers the tiers. The terms call upgrade fees non-refundable, so a Club+ refund may not equal the full $120. That is my reading, not a figure BJ’s states, so ask for the exact amount before you hand over the card.
A refund example with assumptions
Say a primary member on Club pays $60 and cancels in the first months of the year. Under the rule above, the current period fee is what is eligible. If the same person cancels a second time after rejoining, the refund is $0 under the terms, even though the fee paid is the same $60. Those numbers are illustrations with assumed amounts, and BJ’s does not publish a sample calculation.
Does BJ’s Membership Automatically Renew?
Yes. The compare memberships page and the terms both describe automatic yearly renewal, and the main membership page says BJ’s memberships are set to auto-renew each year so you do not lose benefits.
How the charge works
- Amount: the then-current membership fee for all memberships on the account, plus any applicable tax.
- Timing: the first day of the month your membership expires.
- Notice: the terms say the charge may occur without further notice, except to the extent applicable law requires notice.
- Failed payments: BJ’s may retry for up to 30 days from the first attempt, and may opt the membership out of Easy Renewal if every attempt fails.
- Payment updates: through the Easy Renewal wallet on BJs.com or by calling Member Care.
The phrase “then-current fee” is worth underlining. If BJ’s raises prices, the renewal charges the new price, not the one you paid at sign-up. Check the live price on the join page each year.
If you were already charged
The pages I could load do not describe a separate renewal-refund window after the charge. The general refund rule above is the only stated route, so contact a club or 800-BJS-CLUB quickly and ask. If it was the first cancellation, the stated rule is on your side. If it was a second or later one, the terms say no refund.
What Happens After You Cancel or Let It Expire
Cancelling and letting a membership lapse are not the same thing, and the terms treat them differently.
Club+ rewards
If you cancel your membership entirely, BJ’s terms say all rewards balances are forfeited. For a Club+ member, rewards are 2% back on eligible purchases, capped at $500 per membership year, with a $10 minimum to redeem. If you have a balance, spend it before you cancel.
The terms do not state a specific rule for rewards if a membership simply lapses without renewal. They do say BJ’s may downgrade Club+ at expiration. Do not assume a lapsed balance is safe.
Household and supplemental cards
Every BJ’s membership includes one additional household member, and up to three paid supplemental memberships can be added. When the primary membership is cancelled, those cards are cancelled too. There is one exception in the terms: if the primary is cancelled without a refund, supplemental memberships will not be cancelled and they continue.
The Business Club version on the terms page includes one complimentary supplemental card with up to eight paid supplemental cards. If employees or family use your cards, warn them before you cancel.
Shopping after expiration
Once a membership has expired, the terms say you cannot shop on BJs.com or the app, and in-club purchases carry a non-member surcharge of 25% of the total purchase. If you renew within two months after expiration, the membership extends 12 months from the expiration date. If you wait longer, it extends 12 months from the last day of the renewal month, and BJ’s may require a new membership instead.
Here is a made-up example. A $60 fee equals a 25% surcharge on $240 of purchases, since 25% of $240 is $60. If you still planned to shop in the club after expiry and spent $100 a month, the surcharge would reach $300 across a year, which is more than the fee. If you are really done with BJ’s, none of that applies.
The co-brand credit card
BJ’s One Mastercard cardholders can cancel Easy Renewal, but the terms say that, because of system limitations, they cannot update payment methods while in good standing. The card has its own terms at BJs.com/bjsoneterms, which are separate from the membership terms. The pages I could load do not explain how cancelling the membership affects the card, or the other way around, so read those card terms or ask the issuer. Do not close a credit card based on a membership article.
Before You Cancel: Downgrade or Compare
This is general information, not advice for your situation, but there are two checks worth making before you cancel.
Check whether Club is enough
The terms say Club+ can be downgraded only at renewal, by phone, on BJs.com or at the member services desk, and that BJ’s may also downgrade at expiration. After a downgrade you stop earning rewards, and the terms say previously earned rewards can still be used, so read that clause before you rely on it.
The arithmetic is simple. Club+ costs $60 more than Club, and 2% rewards equal $60 at $3,000 of eligible spending a year, or $250 a month. If your own spending is well under that, the extra tier may not pay for itself, though gas and delivery perks change the math for some households.
Compare the other clubs
If cost is the reason you are leaving, compare before you commit elsewhere. Costco’s Executive page says you will be billed $130 in total for Executive at renewal and lists a $65 annual upgrade fee, and Costco’s page says a refund of the Executive upgrade fee requires cancelling or downgrading, with rewards already issued deducted. My Costco membership cost guide has the tiers.
The Sam’s Club join page lists Club at $60 and Plus at $120, and it did not describe cancellation or refund terms on the page I loaded. I cover that club in my Sam’s Club membership cost guide. Neither warehouse club is automatically better, and a club you cannot reach conveniently costs more than a cheaper one you use.
To confirm today’s fees, use the official Costco Executive page for Costco. For Sam’s Club, use its official join page.
Cancelling a BJ’s Membership as a Store Owner
If you run a store, a warehouse membership is a small operating cost, and cost control is mostly about knowing every recurring charge. A $60 Club or $120 Club+ membership is easy to forget, which is exactly why it is worth reviewing once a year alongside software, apps and tools.
Keep the paperwork clean
If the membership was a business expense, keep the receipt and the cancellation confirmation with your books. The IRS publishes a tax guide for self-employed people covering Schedule C and business expenses, and I suggest asking an accountant how to categorize a membership fee and any refund. The SBA also has a guide to managing business finances if you are building your books from scratch.
If you have not set up the entity yet, my business formation guide for high-ticket dropshipping walks through it. Keeping memberships on a business account is easier to track than mixing them with household shopping.
A club is retail, not a supplier
If you sell products, your margins come from supplier pricing, not a member discount at a warehouse club. That is why I tell new sellers to start with my supplier-finding guide before spending on memberships for inventory.
It also helps to understand what high-ticket dropshipping is and how it differs from buying stock. I keep a list of high-ticket niches so you can pick products with room for margin.
Cancel BJ’s Membership FAQ
How do I cancel my BJ’s membership?
To stop the yearly charge, turn off Easy Renewal at the member services desk, on BJs.com, or by calling 800-BJS-CLUB (257-2582), before your renewal billing date. To cancel for a refund, BJ’s terms say to request it at a club or by letter to the Marlborough, MA address, as of November 2026.
Does a BJ’s membership automatically renew?
Yes. BJ’s Easy Renewal charges the then-current fee, plus tax, to the payment method on file on the first day of the month your membership expires. You can turn it off any time before that billing date.
Can I cancel BJ’s and get a refund?
Primary members can cancel any time and request a refund for the current membership period, per BJ’s terms. The terms also say no refund is paid for second or subsequent cancellations, and upgrade and add-on fees are not refunded, so a Club+ refund may be smaller than the full fee.
What happens to my BJ’s rewards if I cancel?
BJ’s membership terms say that if you cancel your membership entirely, all rewards balances are forfeited. The terms do not state a specific rule for a membership that lapses without renewal, so spend any balance first.
Can I cancel BJ’s online or by phone?
Easy Renewal can be cancelled on BJs.com or by phone at 800-BJS-CLUB. The pages I could load do not show an online or phone route for cancelling the whole membership with a refund, so check your account or call before you assume it.
Final Word
Cancelling BJ’s comes down to three facts: turn off Easy Renewal before the first day of your expiration month, request a refund at a club or by mail if you want money back, and remember the refund covers the first cancellation only. If you are not sure you are done with BJ’s, consider the Club downgrade instead, because rewards vanish on a full cancellation.
Confirm every detail on BJ’s own pages before you act, since terms change. Then put the saved $60 or $120 toward something that earns for the business.
