How to cancel Travel + Leisure in singapore and protect your subscription rights
Why you might want to cancel Travel + Leisure
Travel + Leisure arrives in your inbox or app with promises of exotic destinations and travel inspiration, but circumstances change. Your reading habits shift, your budget tightens, or you discover free alternatives online that serve your needs better. Cancelling your subscription is your fundamental right as a consumer in Singapore, and Yafee exists to help you exercise that right confidently and without delay.
Whether you've accumulated an unread backlog of destination guides, prefer browsing travel blogs at no cost, or simply want to reduce monthly expenses, you can terminate your subscription immediately. No explanation is required, and no penalties apply once you understand the legal framework protecting you.
Common reasons to cancel
You might cancel because you've exhausted your reading backlog, prefer free travel content online, want to lower monthly costs, lost interest in the magazine's editorial direction, or discovered overlapping subscriptions. None of these reasons require justification. Your subscription belongs to you, and you control its status at all times.
What cancellation means for your access
Cancellation stops all future charges immediately. Your current billing period remains active and paid for, meaning you retain full access to all digital content until your renewal date arrives. After that date passes, your access ends automatically and no additional money is charged to your account. You do not receive a refund for the current billing period unless you cancel within a statutory cooling-off window.
Your legal position under singapore consumer law
Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act (CPFTA) grants you explicit rights to cancel subscription services, and Travel + Leisure must comply with these protections.
Automatic renewal protections
Under the CPFTA, subscription services using automatic renewal must disclose renewal terms clearly before you pay, and you have the right to cancel at any time without penalty. Travel + Leisure discloses its renewal terms at the point of purchase, whether through Apple's App Store or its own publisher portal. This transparency is legally required and provides you with a foundation to cancel confidently.
Your statutory cancellation rights
You may cancel Travel + Leisure at any point during your subscription, and cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period. The Consumer Association of Singapore (CASE) enforces consumer protections and will escalate complaints if Travel + Leisure refuses to process your cancellation request or imposes unauthorized charges. Yafee recommends documenting your cancellation request and keeping all confirmations in case a dispute arises.
Where you subscribe to Travel + Leisure in singapore
Your cancellation method depends entirely on which platform processed your payment.
Identifying your subscription source
Travel + Leisure offers two primary channels for Singaporean subscribers. First, you can subscribe via the iOS App Store on your iPhone or iPad, where Apple handles billing and automatic renewal. Second, you can purchase directly from the Travel + Leisure publisher shop online, where the publisher manages your account and processes charges.
Check your most recent receipt or bank statement to identify the merchant name. Look for either "Apple" or "Travel + Leisure" as the charge originator. This single detail determines your exact cancellation path, and Yafee's step-by-step guides below walk you through both scenarios with precision.
How automatic renewal works on both platforms
Both the iOS App Store and the Travel + Leisure publisher shop use automatic renewal by default. Your subscription renews at the end of each billing cycle unless you actively cancel beforehand. This practice is legal in Singapore provided the company discloses renewal terms clearly in advance, which Travel + Leisure does at the point of purchase.
How to cancel Travel + Leisure on the iOS app store
If you subscribed through Apple's App Store, you cancel directly in your device settings without contacting support.
Step 1: open your device settings
- Locate the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad home screen.
- The icon resembles a grey gear symbol.
- Tap the Settings icon to open your device configuration menu.
Step 2: access your apple ID account
- Tap your Apple ID name at the very top of the Settings menu.
- This opens your Apple account profile and linked services.
Step 3: navigate to your active subscriptions
- Select Subscriptions from the menu options below your Apple ID profile.
- You will see a complete list of all active subscriptions tied to this Apple ID.
Step 4: find Travel + Leisure in your subscription list
- Locate and tap Travel + Leisure in the subscription list.
- The app name appears alongside your renewal date and current subscription price.
Step 5: confirm your cancellation request
- Tap Cancel Subscription at the bottom of the screen.
- Apple may display a retention offer or show you a reason-selection prompt.
- Confirm your cancellation by tapping the final confirmation prompt.
- You will receive an on-screen confirmation message immediately.
Step 6: preserve your cancellation proof
- Screenshot the on-screen confirmation as evidence of your cancellation request.
- Save this image in a secure location on your device or cloud storage.
You will retain access to Travel + Leisure content until your current billing period ends, typically 30 days from your last charge date. Deletion of the Travel + Leisure app from your device does not cancel the subscription; cancellation through Settings is the only method that stops future charges.
How to cancel Travel + Leisure through the publisher's website
If you subscribed directly through Travel + Leisure's publisher portal, you must contact the publisher's support team or manage your subscription through their account dashboard.
Step 1: locate your account dashboard
- Visit the Travel + Leisure website and log into your account using your registered email and password.
- Look for a "My Account," "Subscriptions," or "Profile" link in the main navigation menu.
Step 2: access your subscription settings
- Navigate to the Subscriptions or Billing section of your account dashboard.
- This section displays your active subscription status and renewal date.
Step 3: initiate your cancellation
- Click Cancel Subscription or Manage Subscription next to your Travel + Leisure subscription entry.
- The platform may ask you to confirm your reason for cancellation or present a retention offer.
- Confirm your cancellation request by clicking the final confirmation button.
- You will receive an on-screen confirmation and a confirmation email within minutes.
Step 4: contact support if the dashboard is inaccessible
- If you cannot locate the subscription management section, email Travel + Leisure support directly at the address provided below.
- Include your full name, registered email address, and account number in your email.
- State clearly: "I request immediate cancellation of my Travel + Leisure subscription effective today."
- Request a cancellation confirmation email within 24 hours.
- Save this confirmation as proof of your cancellation request.
Timeline and what happens after you cancel
Understanding your post-cancellation timeline ensures you know when access ends and how to manage any unexpected charges.
Your access during the current billing period
Your access to Travel + Leisure content remains active until the end of your current billing period. If you cancel on day 5 of a 30-day cycle, you retain full access for the remaining 25 days. You do not receive a refund or credit for unused time during this period, as per standard subscription practice in Singapore.
When your access ends
On the first day following your billing period's final day, your access to Travel + Leisure terminates automatically. You can no longer log into your account or download content. No login reminder or warning email is required by law, although Travel + Leisure may send courtesy notifications.
Preventing accidental resubscription
Do not click "Resubscribe" or similar buttons on the Travel + Leisure website or app after your cancellation date, as this initiates a new paid subscription immediately. If you resubscribe accidentally, contact support within 14 days to request a refund under the CPFTA's cooling-off provisions.
Refund entitlements and cooling-off rights
Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act provides you with a statutory cooling-off period for distance contracts, including online subscriptions.
Cooling-off period for new subscriptions
If you subscribed to Travel + Leisure online and cancel within 14 days of your first charge, you have the right to a full refund under the CPFTA's cooling-off provisions. This period applies whether you subscribed through Apple or the publisher portal. To claim this refund, contact Travel + Leisure support or Apple immediately with your cancellation request and the date of your original purchase.
Refunds after the 14-day window
After 14 days have passed since your subscription began, you have no automatic refund entitlement for the current billing period. Your cancellation takes effect at the end of that period, and no refund is due for the time you have already used. This is standard practice across subscription services in Singapore and is permitted under consumer law.
If an unexpected charge appears
If Travel + Leisure charges you after you have cancelled, contact your payment provider (Apple, your credit card issuer, or your bank) immediately to dispute the charge. Provide your cancellation confirmation as evidence. Your payment provider can reverse unauthorized charges within 30 to 90 days of the transaction. Yafee recommends reporting persistent billing issues to the Consumer Association of Singapore (CASE) if the company refuses to process the reversal.
Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling
Many subscribers inadvertently delay or complicate their cancellation. The reassuring news is that these mistakes are easily avoidable once you understand the process.
Deleting the app without cancelling
Removing the Travel + Leisure app from your iPhone or iPad does not cancel your subscription. Deletion removes the application only; Apple continues charging your account automatically at each renewal. Cancel through Settings first, then delete the app if you wish. Yafee emphasizes this distinction because it is the single most common cause of unwanted post-cancellation charges.
Failing to document your cancellation
Screenshot your on-screen confirmation immediately after cancelling. If you cancelled through the publisher website, save the confirmation email sent by their system. These records protect you if a billing dispute arises later and serve as evidence if you need to escalate a complaint to CASE or your payment provider.
Cancelling on or near your renewal date
Avoid cancelling in the 24 hours immediately before your renewal date. If the renewal processes before your cancellation takes effect, you are charged for a new billing cycle. Cancel at least three days before your renewal date to ensure cancellation takes effect before the system processes the next charge.
Not checking your bank statement after cancellation
Monitor your bank or credit card statement for 30 days after your cancellation takes effect. Verify that no further charges from Travel + Leisure or Apple appear. If an unexpected charge posts, contact your payment provider within the dispute window (typically 60 days from the transaction date).

Escalation: what to do if Travel + Leisure refuses to cancel
If you follow the cancellation steps above and Travel + Leisure does not honour your request within seven days, you have legal recourse under Singapore consumer law.
Document the refusal in writing
Send a formal email to Travel + Leisure support stating your cancellation request clearly, including the date of your original request and the cancellation method you used. Request a written response confirming cancellation within 48 hours. Keep copies of all correspondence.
Escalate to the consumer association of singapore
If Travel + Leisure does not respond or refuses to cancel, file a complaint with the Consumer Association of Singapore (CASE). CASE investigates violations of the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act and can compel the company to honour your cancellation request. You can lodge a complaint online at www.case.org.sg or visit their office in person. Yafee recommends including all documentation (cancellation confirmations, emails, bank statements) in your complaint.
Dispute unauthorized charges with your payment provider
If Travel + Leisure charges you after your cancellation request, contact your bank, credit card issuer, or Apple directly to dispute the charge. Provide your cancellation confirmation as evidence. Your payment provider can reverse the charge and may permanently block Travel + Leisure from charging your account again.
