Frequently asked questions
Cancel Mailjet: The Right Way to Protect Your Data
How to cancel your Mailjet subscription and stop recurring charges
Understanding Mailjet and why cancellation might be right for you
Mailjet is a cloud-based email marketing and transactional messaging platform used by businesses across the UAE to send, track, and optimize email campaigns. If you subscribe to Mailjet, you pay in AED for access to email templates, contact segmentation, API integrations, analytics, and deliverability tools. Whether you're on the Free plan, Essential tier, or Premium package, the cancellation process differs depending on your account status and business needs.
You might consider cancelling Mailjet if you've migrated to another email service provider, reduced your email marketing volume, or found the platform misaligned with your operational requirements. Before taking action, understand your contractual rights under UAE consumer law and the precise steps to avoid unexpected charges or data loss. Yafee has guided thousands of UAE-based consumers and businesses through subscription cancellations with legal clarity and practical confidence.
Common reasons to cancel Mailjet
Cancellation makes sense if you no longer send bulk email campaigns, have switched to competitors like Sendinblue or HubSpot, want to reduce software expenses, or no longer require transactional email functionality. If your email volume has dropped significantly, you might downgrade to the Free plan instead of cancelling entirely-this preserves your account, contact lists, and campaign history at zero cost.
When you should pause before cancelling
Before you submit a cancellation request, export all contact lists, email templates, campaign reports, and historical data. Once Mailjet permanently deletes your account, you lose immediate access to this information. If you anticipate returning to email marketing within 12 months, downgrading to the Free plan is a safer option than permanent deletion.
Your consumer rights under UAE law
As a consumer in the United Arab Emirates, you are protected under UAE Consumer Protection Law (Federal Law No. 24 of 2006), which governs contract fairness, pricing transparency, and cancellation rights for digital services.
Your legal position when cancelling Mailjet
Under UAE Consumer Protection Law, you have the right to cancel any subscription service without penalty if the service fails to meet the advertised specification or is interrupted without reasonable cause. If Mailjet experiences technical faults that prevent you from sending campaigns or accessing your data, you can request a refund or credit for the affected billing period. You also possess the absolute right to receive clear, written confirmation of your cancellation request within 48 hours of submission. Furthermore, if Mailjet continues to charge your card after you have formally cancelled, you can dispute those charges through your bank and escalate to the Ministry of Economy and Planning.
What to do if Mailjet refuses to cancel
If Mailjet's support team delays, denies, or ignores your cancellation request without valid justification, you have the right to file a formal complaint with the Ministry of Economy and Planning (the primary consumer enforcement body in the UAE). Document the exact date and method of your cancellation request, all support correspondence, and screenshots of your account status. The ministry investigates disputes and can compel Mailjet to honour your cancellation and process any owed refunds. Yafee recommends keeping these records for a minimum of 6 months after cancellation.
Mailjet pricing in the UAE
Understanding Mailjet's billing structure helps you calculate refunds and decide whether cancellation or downgrade is cost-effective.
| Plan type | Monthly cost (AED) | Email sends per month | Key features | Cancellation flexibility |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | 0 | 6,000 | Basic templates, limited support | No charge; easiest option |
| Essential | From 299 AED | 50,000 | Advanced templates, segmentation, API | Monthly billing; cancel anytime |
| Premium | From 699 AED | Unlimited | Advanced analytics, priority support, dedicated IP | Monthly billing; cancel anytime |
| Custom/Enterprise | Negotiated per contract | Unlimited | Dedicated account manager, custom SLA | Subject to contract terms; escalate to support |
Mailjet charges on a calendar month basis. If you cancel mid-month, you will not receive a pro-rata refund unless you explicitly request one or Mailjet's terms guarantee it. Always request refund confirmation in writing when you cancel.
Methods to cancel your Mailjet account
Mailjet provides four distinct cancellation routes; choose the method that matches your plan tier and urgency.
Self-service cancellation via your account dashboard (fastest)
If you hold an Essential or Premium plan, you can downgrade or delete your account directly from your Mailjet dashboard without contacting support. This method takes effect immediately for downgrades and within 24 hours for permanent account deletion.
- Log in to your Mailjet account at mailjet.com
- Navigate to Settings or Account Settings (usually in the top-right menu)
- Locate the "Plan & Billing" or "Subscription" section
- Select "Downgrade to Free" or "Delete Account"
- Follow the on-screen prompts and confirm your choice
- Take a screenshot of the confirmation message for your records
This self-service route is the quickest because it requires no human interaction and leaves an automatic audit trail in your account. Yafee recommends this method for most business users.
Cancellation via the Mailjet support centre (24/7 available)
You can submit a cancellation request through Mailjet's Support Centre at support.mailjet.com at any time, 24 hours a day. This method is ideal if you cannot access your dashboard or want documented proof of your request sent by a support agent.
- Visit support.mailjet.com and log in with your account credentials
- Click "Create a ticket" or "Submit a request"
- Select the category "Billing" or "Account"
- Write a clear subject line: "Request to cancel my Mailjet subscription"
- In the message body, include:
- Your full name and registered email address
- Your account ID (found in Settings)
- Reason for cancellation (optional but helpful)
- Requested cancellation date
- Request for written confirmation of cancellation
- Attach any relevant account screenshots
- Submit the ticket and note the ticket reference number
- Check your email within 24-48 hours for Mailjet's response
Support tickets create a paper trail, which is valuable if you later dispute charges or need to escalate to UAE consumer authorities. Always copy the ticket number into your own records.
Phone or live chat cancellation (limited hours, higher-tier plans)
If you hold a Custom or Enterprise plan, Mailjet offers phone and live chat support during Central European Time (CET) business hours, typically Monday-Friday 09:00-17:00 CET. This corresponds to afternoon and evening hours in the UAE.
- Log in to your Mailjet dashboard
- Look for "Contact support" or "Chat with us" in the bottom-right corner
- Select "Chat" or "Schedule a call"
- Request cancellation directly and ask for a confirmation email
- Provide your account details and reason for cancellation
- Save the chat transcript or call recording reference
Phone and chat are faster for Enterprise customers but less reliable for creating formal proof of your request. Combine this method with a follow-up support ticket for documentation.
Postal mail cancellation (slowest, formal method)
You can also cancel by sending a formal written notice to Mailjet's registered office address. This method is slow but creates the strongest legal documentation for UAE consumer law purposes.
- Prepare a formal letter on your company letterhead (or personal letterhead)
- Include:
- Your full name and registered email address
- Your Mailjet account ID
- The phrase "I hereby request cancellation of my Mailjet subscription effective [date]"
- Your signature and date
- A request for written confirmation of cancellation
- Send the letter via registered post or courier to the Mailjet address listed in your account Terms of Service
- Retain the proof of delivery receipt
- Follow up with an email to support if you do not receive confirmation within 10 business days
Postal cancellation is rarely necessary in modern practice, but it is the most legally robust method if you anticipate disputes.
Step-by-step cancellation process
Here is the recommended sequence to cancel your Mailjet account safely and with full documentation.
Step 1: export all your data before cancelling
Your first action must be to back up all email templates, contact lists, campaign reports, and transactional message logs. Once your account is deleted, you cannot recover this data from Mailjet's servers.
- Log in to your Mailjet account
- Go to Contacts and export your full contact list as CSV
- Go to Templates and export or screenshot each template you want to keep
- Go to Analytics or Reports and download any historical campaign data
- Save all files to an external drive or cloud storage (Google Drive, OneDrive, etc.)
Step 2: choose your cancellation method and submit your request
Select one of the four methods listed above. Yafee recommends the dashboard method for speed or the support ticket method for documentation. Include the exact date you want cancellation to take effect (usually the last day of your current billing cycle).
Step 3: obtain and store written confirmation
Within 48 hours of submitting your cancellation request, Mailjet must send you written confirmation (email or ticket response). Save this confirmation email in a dedicated folder and screenshot it as backup. Your confirmation should include:
- Your account email address
- Confirmation that your cancellation request was received and processed
- The date your subscription will end
- Confirmation of any refund or credit owed
Step 4: monitor your next billing date
Check your email and bank statement on the date your subscription was supposed to end. If you are charged after your cancellation confirmation date, you have grounds to dispute the charge with your bank and escalate to the Ministry of Economy and Planning.
Step 5: dispute any unauthorized post-cancellation charges
If Mailjet charges you after your cancellation date, contact your bank immediately to dispute the charge. Simultaneously, send a follow-up email to Mailjet support with the subject "Unauthorized charge after cancellation confirmation" and attach your cancellation confirmation email. Reference the UAE Consumer Protection Law in your message.
Refund and billing timeline after cancellation
Understanding your refund timeline prevents confusion and helps you identify unauthorized charges.
How long refunds take
If Mailjet owes you a refund for a pro-rata cancellation (cancelled mid-month), the refund typically processes within 7-10 business days to your original payment method. If you paid by credit card, the refund appears as a credit on your card statement. If you paid by bank transfer or invoice, contact your bank or accounting department to confirm receipt.
Billing cycle and cancellation date alignment
Mailjet charges on a calendar month basis. If you cancel on day 15 of a 31-day month, you generally do not receive a refund unless Mailjet's policy states otherwise or you explicitly request one. To avoid losing money, cancel on or before the last day of your current billing month. Always confirm the exact final billing date in writing with support.
Your legal position on refunds
Under UAE Consumer Protection Law, if you cancel a digital service within 14 days of initial purchase, you have the right to a full refund with no questions asked. After 14 days, refund eligibility depends on whether the service has been delivered as advertised. If Mailjet fails to deliver campaigns due to technical issues, you can request a pro-rata refund. If you simply change your mind after 14 days and the service works as advertised, you have no automatic right to a refund, though you can always request one in writing.
Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling Mailjet
Cancellation is straightforward, but a few preventable errors can lead to unexpected charges, data loss, or disputes.
Deleting your account without exporting data first
Your most critical mistake would be selecting "Delete Account" without first backing up your contact lists and email templates. Once deletion is confirmed, Mailjet purges your data within 24 hours and cannot recover it. Always export your data to CSV or screenshot your templates before proceeding to deletion. Yafee recommends treating this as a mandatory first step, not an afterthought.
Cancelling mid-cycle without checking refund eligibility
If you cancel on day 10 of a 30-day billing cycle, you may forfeit the remaining 20 days of your subscription cost. Before cancelling, email support and ask: "If I cancel today, what is my refund or credit?" Get the answer in writing and include it in your cancellation request.
Not keeping cancellation confirmation
If you submit a cancellation request but forget to save the confirmation email or ticket reference, you have no proof if Mailjet later claims you never cancelled. Always screenshot or forward your confirmation to a personal email account as a backup.
Assuming "Downgrade to free" means "Cancellation"
Downgrading to the Free plan does not cancel your account; it only stops charging you. If you want full account deletion, you must explicitly select "Delete Account" or "Permanently Close Account." Downgrading is appropriate if you might use Mailjet again; deletion is only appropriate if you want the account completely removed.
Ignoring unauthorized post-cancellation charges
If Mailjet charges you one month after your cancellation confirmation, do not ignore it. Dispute the charge with your bank immediately and send a formal complaint to Mailjet. The longer you wait, the harder it becomes to prove the charge was unauthorized. Under UAE consumer law, you have the right to recover unauthorized charges plus interest.
After cancellation: what happens next
Your Mailjet journey does not end at the cancellation button; several critical actions follow to protect your business and data.
Migrating your contact lists to a new email platform
Once you have exported your contact list, import it into your new email service provider (such as Brevo, HubSpot, or Klaviyo). Test the import to ensure all email addresses and custom fields transferred correctly. Do not delete your Mailjet export file for at least 6 months in case you need to verify contact data integrity.
Updating your email integration points
If your website or application uses Mailjet's API to send transactional emails (order confirmations, password resets, etc.), you must update these integrations before your account is deleted. Configure your website to use your new email provider's API credentials. Test all transactional emails in a staging environment before going live to ensure no customer communications are disrupted.
Archiving your campaign reports
If you sent marketing campaigns through Mailjet, download your final campaign reports before deletion. These reports show open rates, click-through rates, and subscriber engagement-valuable data for your next email platform or for compliance records.
Verifying your bank statement for 60 days
Monitor your bank statement for two billing cycles after your cancellation confirmation date. If Mailjet charges you again, dispute it immediately through your bank and escalate to Mailjet support. Keep all dispute documentation and correspondence for potential escalation to the Ministry of Economy and Planning.
Comparing cancellation across email platforms
If you are deciding whether to cancel Mailjet or switch to an alternative, review how other platforms compare.
| Platform | Cancellation method | Refund policy | Data export ease | Recommended for UAE users |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mailjet | Dashboard, support ticket, phone, post | Pro-rata within 7-10 days | CSV export available | Yes; transparent process |
| Brevo (Sendinblue) | Dashboard or support email | Full refund within 14 days | CSV export available | Yes; similar process to Mailjet |
| HubSpot | Dashboard or account manager | Pro-rata within 30 days | Extensive export tools | Yes; more robust for SMEs |
| Klaviyo | Dashboard or support | No refund; month-to-month only | CSV export available | Yes; e-commerce focused |
| MailerLite | Dashboard or email support | Pro-rata within 5-7 days | Full data export available | Yes; simplest interface |
Mailjet's cancellation process is competitive in speed and transparency. Its main strength is the self-service dashboard option, which eliminates the need for support interaction.
Escalation: what to do if Mailjet refuses to cancel
If Mailjet ignores your cancellation request or refuses to honour it without justification, you have formal legal remedies under UAE consumer law.
Document your cancellation attempt
Compile all evidence of your cancellation request, including:
- Screenshots of your cancellation submission (dated)
- Email confirmation from Mailjet support or ticket reference numbers
- All correspondence with Mailjet staff regarding cancellation
- Your bank statements showing the charges you dispute
- Calendar dates of when you submitted each request
Send a formal written demand to Mailjet
Send a formal email to Mailjet support titled "Formal Notice: Cancellation Dispute and Demand for Compliance." State that you are invoking your rights under UAE Consumer Protection Law (Federal Law No. 24 of 2006) and demand that Mailjet honour your cancellation request within 5 business days. Reference specific ticket numbers and dates. Request a response in writing.
File a complaint with the ministry of economy and planning
If Mailjet does not respond within 5 business days or refuses to cancel, file a formal consumer complaint with the Ministry of Economy and Planning (formerly the Ministry of Economy). You can file online via the ministry's consumer protection portal or submit a written complaint to the nearest consumer protection office in your emirate.
In your complaint, include:
- Your name, email, and contact number
- Mailjet's company name and website
- The specific dates of your cancellation requests
- All documentation supporting your claim
- The monetary value of disputed charges
- Your requested remedy (cancellation, refund, or both)
The ministry typically investigates within 30 days and can compel Mailjet to honour your request and refund unauthorized charges. This escalation is rare but is your strongest legal tool if Mailjet acts in bad faith.

Frequently asked scenarios during cancellation
Yafee has compiled answers to real situations consumers face when cancelling Mailjet.
Can i cancel mid-billing cycle without losing money?
Yes, but the refund depends on Mailjet's policy and UAE consumer law. You can request a pro-rata refund (refund for unused days). For example, if you are on a 300 AED monthly plan and cancel on day 10 of a 30-day month, you might receive a refund of roughly 200 AED (20 unused days). Always request this in writing when you cancel and ask for confirmation within 48 hours.
What happens to my transactional emails after i cancel?
Mailjet will stop sending transactional emails (password resets, order confirmations, etc.) immediately after your account is deleted. If your website relies on Mailjet's API for these emails, customers will not receive them. You must migrate to a new email provider and reconfigure your API integrations before your cancellation takes effect. Test this in a staging environment first.
Can i reactivate my Mailjet account after cancellation?
Yes. You can reactivate your account by logging in and upgrading to a paid plan again. However, if you permanently deleted your account, you will lose all historical data, contact lists, and campaign reports. Downgrading to the Free plan (rather than deleting) is safer if you might return.
Who do i contact if Mailjet keeps charging me after i cancel?
First, contact Mailjet support immediately with your cancellation confirmation and dispute the charge. If Mailjet does not respond within 5 business days, dispute the charge with your bank (chargebacks are covered by UAE banking regulations). Simultaneously, file a formal complaint with the Ministry of Economy and Planning with all documentation. Yafee recommends keeping all communication for evidence.
Summary and next steps
Cancelling your Mailjet subscription is straightforward when you follow the legal framework, choose the right method, and document every step. Under UAE Consumer Protection Law, you have the absolute right to cancel without penalty if the service fails to meet specifications. You also have the right to request a pro-rata refund for unused services and to receive written confirmation of your cancellation within 48 hours.
Your cancellation method depends on your plan tier and preference. The dashboard method is fastest; the support ticket method is most documented. Export all your data before deletion, monitor your bank statement for 60 days after cancellation, and dispute any unauthorized post-cancellation charges immediately. If Mailjet refuses to cancel or process refunds, escalate to the Ministry of Economy and Planning with formal documentation.
