# Deactivate subscription

`POST /processing-terminals/{processingTerminalId}/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/deactivate`

Use this method to deactivate a subscription.  

To deactivate a subscription, you need its subscriptionId, which you sent in the request of the [Create Subscription](https://docs.payroc.com/api/schema/repeat-payments/subscriptions/create) method.  

**Note:** If you don't have the subscriptionId, use our [List Subscriptions](https://docs.payroc.com/api/schema/repeat-payments/subscriptions/list) method to search for the subscription.  

If your request is successful, our gateway stops taking payments from the customer.  

To reactivate the subscription, use our [Reactivate Subscription](https://docs.payroc.com/api/schema/payments/subscriptions/reactivate) method.
