When I log in to the manager, there is a button on the right that says "renew" - so I would assume it is like with all their other services: Just don't pay and it gets cancelled.
Will if affect my other services? I have a few kimsufis on that account.
You can just not renew it is the best way. If you want to get rid of it before then the only way is to fill out a domain deletion form and put it in the post (no kidding). I just did it for a few domains and a few days later they deleted the domains from my account.
It does not affect other services, done it a few times with kimisurf and domains without an issue
If you have credits (or registered payment methods) in your OVH account they'll automatically renew it; you have to explicitely disallow renewal in the Manager interface.
Go to Billing > My Services - there you can choose 'Cancel' (= no renewal, force deletion) for selected hosting/server/domain upon expiry.
