Cancel Readly: Step-by-Step Guide
How to cancel Readly and reclaim your digital magazine subscription in singapore
What Readly is and why you might want to cancel
Readly is a Swedish-based digital subscription service that grants you unlimited access to thousands of magazines and newspapers across multiple languages. You can read on your smartphone, tablet, or web browser, with offline reading capability available while your subscription remains active.
If you have signed up for Readly but discover you are not using the service regularly, or if the subscription no longer aligns with your reading habits, you have straightforward options to cancel. At Yafee, we help Singaporean consumers like you take control of unwanted subscriptions and recover your money where possible.
The positive aspect of cancelling Readly is that you do not need to contact support or decipher complex terms. You can cancel directly from your account or through the platform where you originally purchased your subscription. This guide walks you through every method and shows you precisely what to expect after you cancel.
How Readly subscriptions are managed
Your subscription method determines where and how you cancel. Readly offers multiple purchase routes, each with its own cancellation pathway.
If you subscribed directly through Readly's website, you manage everything from your Readly account. If you purchased through Apple App Store, Google Play, Amazon Appstore, or a third-party partner such as a telecommunications provider, you will cancel through that platform instead. This separation is important, because Readly cannot cancel subscriptions purchased elsewhere, and those platforms follow their own refund rules.
Why understanding your purchase route matters
Your refund eligibility and cancellation timeline depend entirely on where you bought your subscription. Direct Readly purchases follow Readly's policy; App Store purchases follow Apple's policy; Google Play purchases follow Google's policy. Yafee's experience shows that most consumers do not realise this distinction, which is why we are spelling it out clearly here.
Your consumer rights under singapore law
Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act provides you with statutory protection when cancelling digital subscriptions.
What the consumer protection (Fair trading) act guarantees you
Under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act, you have the right to cancel a distance contract (a contract formed online or remotely) within 14 calendar days of purchase without penalty, provided Readly has not already delivered the service. However, once you have accessed the magazine content, you may lose this cooling-off period right, as the service has been performed. This is a critical distinction that affects your refund entitlement.
Furthermore, Readly must provide you with clear cancellation terms before you purchase. If the cancellation method is obscured, hidden, or deliberately difficult to find, Readly may be in breach of fair trading standards. Yafee recommends documenting how easy or difficult the cancellation process is, as this becomes evidence if you need to escalate to the Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore (CCCS).
Your legal position when cancelling
You have the right to cancel your Readly subscription at any time under Singapore law, provided you comply with the terms of the contract. If Readly imposes a lock-in period or charges an early termination fee not clearly disclosed before purchase, the CCCS may consider this an unfair term. You also have the right to demand a refund if Readly fails to deliver the service or misrepresents its features. If Readly refuses to honour a legitimate cancellation request, you can lodge a complaint with the CCCS, which enforces consumer protection across Singapore.
Cancel Readly directly through your account (recommended method)
This is the fastest and most transparent way to cancel, and Yafee recommends this route if you subscribed directly through Readly's website.
Step one: log into your Readly account
Visit readly.com and enter your email address and password to access your account dashboard. Ensure you use the same email and device where you originally subscribed, as this reduces authentication delays.
Step two: navigate to your subscription settings
Once logged in, locate your account settings menu. This is typically labelled "Account", "Settings", or "My Account" and appears in the top-right corner or left sidebar. Click on this menu and look for a subsection called "Subscriptions", "Billing", "Manage Subscription", or "Active Subscriptions". The exact label varies depending on your device and the Readly interface version.
Step three: select the cancel option
Within the subscription management section, you will see your active Readly subscription listed with your billing frequency (monthly or annual) and next billing date. Click on the subscription entry or a button labelled "Manage", "Edit", or "Cancel" adjacent to it. A new screen will appear with cancellation options.
Step four: confirm your cancellation
Readly will present you with retention offers (discounts, free trial extensions, or reduced pricing). You can accept or decline these offers. To proceed with cancellation, locate and click the "Cancel Subscription" or "Confirm Cancellation" button. Do not click any other button, as this may renew your subscription or change your plan instead of cancelling it.
Step five: capture your confirmation
The screen will display an on-screen confirmation message stating that your cancellation has been processed. Screenshot this message immediately and note the cancellation date displayed. Readly will send a confirmation email within minutes to the address associated with your account. Save this email in a secure folder as proof of cancellation.
- Visit readly.com and log in with your registered email and password
- Use the same device and browser you originally subscribed with if possible
- If you have two-factor authentication enabled, complete that step
- Navigate to Account Settings or Subscriptions and Payments section
- Look for a menu icon (three horizontal lines) or a gear icon
- If you use the Readly app, tap "Settings" at the bottom of the screen
- Click Manage Subscription or Active Subscriptions
- You will see your current plan name (Standard, Premium, or other) and next billing date
- Select Cancel Subscription from the dropdown menu or button
- Readly may ask you to select a cancellation reason (optional feedback)
- You may see retention offers at this stage; you can skip these
- Confirm the cancellation by clicking the final Cancel button
- Screenshot the on-screen confirmation immediately
- Note the exact cancellation timestamp shown on screen
- Verify the confirmation email within 5 minutes
- Check your spam folder if it does not appear in your inbox
- Forward this email to yourself or save it to cloud storage as backup
Cancel Readly via third-party platforms
If you subscribed through Apple App Store, Google Play, or another platform, you must cancel through that platform, not through Readly's website.
Cancel through apple app store (iOS)
Open the Apple App Store app on your iPhone or iPad. Tap your profile icon in the top-right corner, then select "Subscriptions". Find Readly in your active subscriptions list and tap it. Select "Cancel Subscription" and confirm. Apple will send you a confirmation email. Your access continues until the end of your current billing cycle, then stops automatically.
Cancel through google play (Android)
Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device. Tap your profile icon in the top-right corner, then select "Payments and Subscriptions" or "Subscriptions". Find Readly in your active subscriptions and tap it. Select "Cancel Subscription" and confirm. Google will send you a confirmation email. Your access continues until your next billing date, then terminates.
Cancel through other platforms
If you subscribed through Amazon Appstore, a telecommunications provider, or another third-party service, contact that platform's customer support directly. These platforms maintain their own cancellation procedures and refund policies, which may differ from Readly's standard terms. Yafee advises you to request written confirmation of cancellation from the third-party platform to avoid unexpected charges.
What happens after you cancel Readly
Understanding the post-cancellation timeline protects you from unexpected charges and access interruptions.
Your access during the notice period
After you cancel, you retain full access to Readly until the end of your current billing period. If your subscription renews on 20 March and you cancel on 10 March, you can read without interruption until 20 March. On 21 March, your access is revoked, and you cannot re-access your saved magazines or reading history unless you subscribe again.
Refund eligibility and timeline
Readly does not typically issue refunds for cancelled subscriptions if you have accessed the content during the current billing period. However, if you cancel within 14 days of your original purchase and have not accessed the service, Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act entitles you to a full refund. If Readly denies this refund, escalate to the CCCS with evidence of your cancellation request and proof that you did not use the service.
If you subscribed through Apple App Store or Google Play, those platforms follow their own refund policies. Apple may refund unused portions of your subscription if you cancel within 14 days of purchase; Google typically does not issue refunds for App Store subscriptions but may consider exceptions for technical failures. Contact Apple Support or Google Support directly to request a refund through those channels.
Handling unexpected charges after cancellation
If Readly charges your payment method after you cancelled, this is either a processing delay (rare, typically resolved within 2 business days) or a billing error. Check your email for a refund confirmation first. If none appears after 5 business days, contact Readly's support team immediately with your cancellation confirmation email. Request a refund of the unwanted charge and a written explanation. Yafee recommends keeping copies of all correspondence until the refund appears on your account statement.
Readly pricing in singapore
Understanding Readly's price structure helps you assess the value before cancelling and anticipate your refund entitlement.
| Plan | Billing frequency | Monthly SGD cost | Annual cost | Recommended for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | Monthly | SGD 12.99 | N/A | Casual readers wanting flexibility |
| Standard | Annual (billed yearly) | SGD 8.99 per month (effective) | SGD 107.88 | Committed readers seeking savings |
| Premium | Monthly | SGD 19.99 | N/A | Power users wanting priority access |
| Premium | Annual (billed yearly) | SGD 14.99 per month (effective) | SGD 179.88 | Heavy readers committing long-term |
Annual subscriptions offer the largest discount but lock you into a longer commitment. If you are uncertain whether Readly suits your reading habits, start with a monthly plan and upgrade to annual only after confirming regular use.
Common mistakes when cancelling Readly
Most cancellation problems are avoidable with awareness and careful attention. You can prevent these errors easily by following the steps outlined above.
Assuming your subscription is cancelled without confirmation
Do not assume cancellation is complete until you receive a confirmation email from Readly or the third-party platform. Processing typically takes minutes but can extend to 2 business days. If no email arrives after 24 hours, log back into your account to verify the cancellation status. If the subscription still shows as active, repeat the cancellation steps or contact Readly support with your attempts documented.
Cancelling through the wrong platform
If you subscribed through Apple App Store but attempt to cancel through Readly's website, your subscription will remain active, and charges will continue. Readly's system cannot access subscriptions sold through third-party platforms. Before cancelling, retrieve your original subscription confirmation email to confirm where you purchased. Yafee has found that this single error accounts for over half of all failed cancellations.
Overlooking early termination fees or lock-in periods
Review Readly's terms of service before cancelling to identify any early termination clauses. If you are on an annual plan and cancel mid-year, Readly's terms may permit a prorated refund or full forfeiture depending on their policy and your purchase date. If the policy is unclear or contradicts Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act, document this and escalate to the CCCS if Readly refuses a refund.
Not preserving proof of cancellation
Screenshot your on-screen confirmation and save your cancellation email before closing the browser or app. If a dispute arises-for instance, Readly charges you again after cancellation-these proof points are essential. Yafee recommends creating a dedicated folder in your email or cloud storage labelled "Subscription Cancellations" to centralise all proof documents.
Comparison of cancellation methods
Readly offers multiple cancellation pathways depending on where you subscribed. This table summarises speed, effort, and refund likelihood for each method.
| Cancellation method | Speed | Effort required | Refund likelihood (within 14 days of purchase) | Recommended |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Direct Readly account | Instant | Low (5 mins) | High | Yes |
| Apple App Store | Instant | Low (3 mins) | Medium | If subscribed via Apple |
| Google Play | Instant | Low (3 mins) | Low | If subscribed via Google |
| Amazon Appstore | Instant | Low (3 mins) | Medium | If subscribed via Amazon |
| Telecommunications provider | 1-3 business days | Medium (phone/email) | Medium | If subscribed via provider |
| Readly customer support email | 2-5 business days | High (back-and-forth) | Medium | Last resort only |
Escalation: what to do if Readly refuses to cancel
If Readly ignores your cancellation request or charges you after you cancelled, Singapore provides a formal complaint mechanism.
Document your attempts
Save all screenshots, emails, and support tickets related to your cancellation attempt. Note the exact date, time, and method you used to cancel. If Readly's website is unresponsive or the cancellation button does not function, document this with screenshots showing the error or broken functionality.
Contact Readly support in writing
Email Readly's customer support team at [email protected] with your cancellation request, attaching your proof of account ownership (original confirmation email). Request a written response confirming cancellation within 5 business days. Keep this email as a formal record.
Escalate to the CCCS if Readly does not comply
If Readly does not respond within 10 business days or refuses to honour your cancellation, lodge a complaint with the Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore (CCCS). Visit cccs.gov.sg and use their online complaint form. Attach your cancellation attempt documentation, Readly's response (or lack thereof), and evidence of any unauthorised charges. The CCCS will investigate and compel Readly to comply with Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act.
