Frequently asked questions
Cancel Simplycook: The Right Way
How to cancel SimplyCook and reclaim control of your subscription in singapore
What SimplyCook is and how the subscription model works
SimplyCook is a subscription meal-kit service that delivers recipe cards and pre-measured ingredients directly to your home, enabling you to prepare restaurant-quality meals without meal planning or ingredient shopping. The service provides curated recipes across diverse cuisines, with an emphasis on simplicity and flavour so you can cook confidently at home.
Your subscription renews automatically on a schedule you select during sign-up. You manage your account through SimplyCook's website or the platform where you originally subscribed (website, Apple App Store, or Google Play). Your billing cycle and delivery schedule depend on your subscription settings and the cut-off times SimplyCook enforces. Understanding your billing cycle before you cancel is essential, which is why Yafee has created this comprehensive guide to help you navigate every step with clarity and confidence.
How SimplyCook billing and renewal works
SimplyCook charges you on a recurring basis according to your chosen plan frequency. To prevent the next delivery, you must notify SimplyCook before midnight four days prior to your scheduled delivery date. If you miss this cut-off window, your next box may still be dispatched and you will be charged accordingly. This timing requirement is critical, so mark your calendar and act well in advance to avoid unwanted charges.
Where your SimplyCook subscription is managed
Your subscription may be active on one of three platforms: SimplyCook's website directly, Apple's App Store (for iOS users), or Google Play (for Android users). The cancellation method differs depending on which platform holds your current subscription, so you must identify the correct channel before you proceed with cancellation.
Why you might want to cancel SimplyCook
Common reasons customers cancel include budget constraints, shifting dietary requirements, time limitations, or a change in cooking habits. Some customers find that meal kits accumulate faster than they can prepare them, or they have discovered meal-prep alternatives that better suit their lifestyle. Whatever your reason, you have the right to cancel without penalty or pressure.
Signs that SimplyCook no longer fits your needs
You may be ready to cancel if you regularly skip weeks, if the recurring cost strains your budget, if your household's cooking preferences have changed, or if you have found better value with alternative services. You may also wish to cancel if SimplyCook's customer service has failed to resolve issues such as damaged deliveries or missing ingredients. Each of these is a legitimate reason to take control of your subscription.
Your consumer rights and legal protection in singapore
Your right to cancel SimplyCook is protected under Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act, which governs distance contracts and unfair commercial practices. This legislation ensures that you can withdraw from a subscription service, and that any cancellation terms SimplyCook imposes must be transparent and not deliberately obscure.
Your legal position on cancellation and refunds
Under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act, you have the right to cancel a distance contract (which includes online subscriptions) within 14 days of receipt of goods or of concluding the contract, whichever is later. SimplyCook must provide you with clear cancellation information before you purchase. Cancellation terms embedded in lengthy terms and conditions are not considered transparent if they make it difficult for you to understand your rights. The Singapore Economic Development Board and Competition Commission (CCCS) oversee compliance with this Act. If SimplyCook refuses to honour your cancellation request or withholds a refund without valid reason, you can escalate your complaint to the CCCS.
What "transparent" cancellation terms mean in practice
SimplyCook must make cancellation instructions easily accessible and clear. This means the company cannot hide its cancellation policy at the end of a 50-page document or require you to navigate through multiple website layers to find it. If SimplyCook's cancellation process is deliberately obscured or contradicts the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act, you have grounds to report the company and request enforcement action by the CCCS.
How to cancel SimplyCook step by step
Your cancellation method depends on where your subscription is active. The steps below cover each route so you can cancel with certainty and within the required timeframe.
Cancel via the SimplyCook website
If you subscribed directly through SimplyCook's website, use this method to cancel your account.

- If you have forgotten your password, select the "Forgot Password" link on the login page and follow the password reset email from SimplyCook.

- Look for a section labelled "My Account", "My Details", "Subscriptions", or "Manage Subscription".
- Select the cancel or pause option within your subscription management area.
- SimplyCook may offer you the choice to pause temporarily; select cancellation if you want to end your subscription entirely.
- SimplyCook may ask you to confirm your cancellation and may present you with a retention offer (such as a discount). You are not obligated to accept any retention offer; decline it if you wish to proceed with cancellation.
- Complete the cancellation process and confirm you have received a cancellation confirmation email from SimplyCook.
- Save this email as proof of cancellation in case of future billing disputes.

Cancel SimplyCook if you subscribed via apple app store

- On your iPhone or iPad, open the Settings app.
- Select your name at the top of the screen to access your Apple Account.
- Select Subscriptions.
- Find and select SimplyCook from your active subscriptions list.
- Select Cancel Subscription.
- Apple may ask you to confirm your cancellation reason and offer you a retention offer; you are not obligated to accept it.
- Once cancelled, you will receive a confirmation notification from Apple.
- Your SimplyCook access will end on your next renewal date; SimplyCook will not refund the current billing period.
Cancel SimplyCook if you subscribed via google play
If you subscribed through Google Play, you must cancel through the Google Play platform rather than contacting SimplyCook directly.
- On your Android device, open the Google Play Store app.
- Select your profile icon in the top right corner.
- Select Payments and subscriptions, then select Subscriptions.
- Find and select SimplyCook.
- Select Cancel subscription.
- Google Play may present you with a discount offer to retain your subscription; you may decline this offer.

- Your subscription will end on your next renewal date; SimplyCook will not refund the current billing period.
SimplyCook pricing structure and billing cycles
SimplyCook offers multiple subscription tiers at different price points. Understanding your current plan and billing frequency helps you calculate the timing of your cancellation and any refunds you may be entitled to.
| Plan type | Frequency | Estimated cost (SGD) | Meals per box | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Weekly plan | Every 7 days | SGD 35-45 per week | 3-4 meals | Regular cooks; small households |
| Fortnightly plan | Every 14 days | SGD 65-85 per fortnight | 6-8 meals | Flexible cooking schedules |
| Monthly plan | Every 28-31 days | SGD 130-165 per month | 12-16 meals | Larger households; bulk savers |
| Pause (temporary suspension) | Up to 8 weeks | SGD 0 | No delivery | Holidaying; testing the service |
| Full cancellation | Immediate termination | SGD 0 (no future charges) | None after cancellation | Switching services; budget changes |
Yafee recommends checking your most recent invoice from SimplyCook to confirm your exact billing frequency and next renewal date before you submit your cancellation request. This information determines whether you fall within the 4-day cut-off window and helps you predict if a final charge will occur.
What happens to your refund after cancellation
SimplyCook's refund policy depends on the timing of your cancellation and the platform through which you subscribed. You should understand your refund eligibility before you cancel to avoid disappointment.
Refunds for cancellations made via SimplyCook's website or email
If you cancel directly through SimplyCook's website or email, your refund entitlement is as follows:
- Cancellation before the 4-day cut-off: You will not be charged for the next box, and you will receive no refund for the current billing period (SimplyCook has already delivered your goods).
- Cancellation after the 4-day cut-off: Your next box will be dispatched and you will be charged in full. Yafee advises you to refuse or return the box unopened if you have already cancelled, and then request a refund from SimplyCook within 14 days of receipt under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act.
- Goods not yet received: If SimplyCook has charged you but has not dispatched your order, you are entitled to a refund within 14 days of the charge date under consumer distance-selling rules.
Refunds for cancellations via apple app store or google play
If you subscribed through Apple App Store or Google Play, the refund policy is controlled by Apple or Google, not by SimplyCook:
- Apple App Store: Apple refunds subscription charges only if you request a refund within 45 days of the charge date. You must submit your refund request through your Apple Account; SimplyCook cannot process it.
- Google Play: Google allows refunds within 48 hours of the charge date. If you cancel after this window, no refund is issued for the current billing period.
Yafee recommends requesting a refund directly from Apple or Google if you cancel within their refund windows, rather than waiting for SimplyCook to act.
If SimplyCook refuses your refund request
If SimplyCook denies your refund claim without reasonable justification, you can escalate your complaint to the Competition Commission (CCCS) or the Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE). You must provide evidence of your cancellation request and SimplyCook's denial. The CCCS can investigate SimplyCook for unfair contract terms or misleading refund policies.
After cancellation: what to expect
Once you have successfully cancelled SimplyCook, several actions should follow to protect yourself and confirm the cancellation is complete.
Verify your cancellation in writing
Confirm that SimplyCook has processed your cancellation by checking the following within 2 to 3 business days:
- Check your SimplyCook account login to confirm the subscription status now shows "Cancelled" or is no longer visible.
- Review your email inbox for a cancellation confirmation email from SimplyCook or from Apple/Google (depending on your subscription platform).
- If you did not receive written confirmation, follow up by email or phone to request it immediately.
Monitor your billing account
Over the following two billing cycles, verify that SimplyCook has not charged you again:
- Check your credit card or bank statement on your next expected billing date to confirm no charge has been applied.
- If an unexpected charge appears, dispute it immediately with your bank and provide SimplyCook with your cancellation confirmation as evidence.
- Yafee recommends saving all cancellation emails and confirmation messages for at least three months after your cancellation date.
Delete your account (optional)
Cancellation stops billing but does not automatically delete your SimplyCook account. If you wish to fully remove your personal data, contact SimplyCook at [email protected] and request account deletion. SimplyCook must comply with your request under the Singapore Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) within 30 days.
Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling SimplyCook
Cancelling a subscription can feel straightforward, but several common errors lead to unexpected charges and frustration. By understanding these pitfalls, you can cancel with confidence and protect yourself from billing mistakes.
Missing the 4-day cut-off window
The most frequent mistake is failing to cancel before midnight four days before your delivery date. SimplyCook's system processes orders automatically if you miss this window, meaning you will be charged and a box will be dispatched. Check your next delivery date immediately and count backward four days to establish your true cut-off time. Set a phone reminder three days before your delivery to ensure you cancel on time.
Cancelling on the wrong platform
If you subscribed via Apple App Store or Google Play but attempted to cancel through SimplyCook's website, your website cancellation will not affect your app subscription. Your billing will continue through Apple or Google. Always identify which platform processed your original subscription and cancel through that same platform. Yafee emphasises that cancelling in the wrong location is the second most common cause of continued billing.
Confusing "pause" with "cancel"
SimplyCook's interface offers both pause (temporary suspension) and cancel (permanent termination) options. If you select pause, your subscription will resume automatically after the pause period ends, and you will be charged again. Pause is only appropriate if you plan to return to SimplyCook within a defined timeframe. If you want to end your subscription entirely, select cancel and confirm the permanent termination message.
Not saving your cancellation confirmation
Failing to retain your cancellation confirmation email or reference number creates a dispute if SimplyCook later claims it never received your request. Save every cancellation-related email to your device or cloud storage. If cancelling by post, use registered mail with a delivery receipt and take a photograph of your letter before posting it.
Accepting a retention offer by mistake
During the cancellation process, SimplyCook may present a discount offer to retain you. If you are not interested in accepting a reduced price, decline the offer clearly and proceed to final cancellation. Do not allow a retention offer to distract you from your decision to leave.

Cancelling SimplyCook is your right as a consumer under Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act, and the process is straightforward if you follow the correct steps and timing.
