Pausing your digital subscription can only be done in your Account.
If you are a New York Times All Access, News, Games, or Cooking subscriber, you have the option to pause or resume your subscription from your account page at any time.
If you have multiple New York Times subscriptions, you can pause each subscription individually.

What Happens When I Pause My Subscription?
You can pause your subscription for a period of either 4 or 8 weeks.
While your subscription is paused, you will not be able to access your subscription and will not be charged by The New York Times for your subscription. You will receive credits for the remainder of your billing cycle that will apply to your next invoice.
Note: While your subscription is paused, you will not be able to make changes to your subscription.
What Happens When I Resume My Subscription?
A new billing cycle will start and you will be charged on the day your subscription resumes.
