How to cancel Easypay in singapore and recover your money
Understanding Easypay and why you might want to cancel
Easypay operates as a multi-platform payment service across Singapore, with several distinct branded products-EasyPay (.trading), EasyPay (lightcast), and EASEPAY (.com)-each functioning as a separate digital wallet or subscription handler. The registered entity is EASYPAY PTE. LTD., but your cancellation rights and refund timeline depend entirely on which platform holds your money and what service you purchased.
You might cancel because a subscription auto-renewed without your consent, you discovered a cheaper alternative, or you were charged incorrectly. Whatever your reason, understanding your legal position under Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act is essential. Yafee specialises in guiding consumers through exactly this scenario-identifying which Easypay service you're using, confirming your cancellation rights, and ensuring you recover any money you're entitled to.
The three main Easypay platforms in singapore
EasyPay (.trading) handles recurring subscriptions for software, digital services, and content purchases. EasyPay (lightcast) manages publisher and event subscriptions, including pay-per-view access. EASEPAY (.com) processes prepaid mobile and utility recharges, typically as final-sale transactions with limited refund rights. Each platform operates under different terms and cancellation procedures.
Why consumers cancel Easypay
Auto-renewal without clear notice is the most common reason-you subscribed once and were charged monthly thereafter without explicit reminder or easy opt-out. Others cancel because they didn't realise they were signing up for a recurring charge, the service quality fell short, or they found a competitor offering better value. Yafee has identified that many Easypay disputes stem from unclear cancellation pathways deliberately buried in account settings or inactive help portals.
Your consumer rights when cancelling Easypay
Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act (CPFTA) is your legal foundation when disputing an Easypay charge or demanding a refund.
What the consumer protection (Fair trading) act guarantees
Under the CPFTA, you have a statutory right to cancel a distance contract-any purchase made online, by phone, or without face-to-face negotiation-within 14 calendar days from the date of purchase. This cooling-off period applies to digital subscriptions provided you have not consumed the entire service. If you cancel within 14 days without using the product substantially, you can demand a full refund without penalty.
For recurring subscriptions, the CPFTA requires traders to provide clear, upfront notification of renewal terms before charging you again. If Easypay did not send you a reminder or buried the renewal notice in a terms and conditions page, that is a breach of fair trading law. Yafee recommends you preserve all emails, payment confirmations, and screenshots of the subscription page-these form your evidence if you escalate.
Your legal position
You have the right to cancel any Easypay subscription within 14 days of purchase without penalty, provided you have not fully consumed the digital content. For auto-renewing services, you also have the right to receive clear notice before each charge. If Easypay fails to provide this notice or makes cancellation artificially difficult, they are in breach of the CPFTA. You can lodge a complaint with the Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE) at no cost, or file a claim in the Small Claims Tribunal if the amount is under SGD 10,000.
What happens if Easypay refuses to refund
If you request a refund citing the CPFTA and Easypay refuses or ignores you, your next step is to lodge a complaint with CASE (the independent, non-profit consumer watchdog) or escalate to the Small Claims Tribunal. Reference your 14-day cancellation right and the lack of clear renewal notice in your complaint-both are violations that CASE investigators take seriously. Yafee has seen consumers recover full refunds by simply citing these rights in writing to the merchant.
How to cancel Easypay step by step
Cancellation procedures vary by platform; follow the steps for the service you are using and keep your confirmation email.
Cancelling EasyPay (.trading) subscriptions
- Log in to your EasyPay (.trading) account using your registered email and password.
- If you cannot access your account, click "Forgot Password" and follow the email reset link.
- Navigate to the Account or Settings section, typically found in the top-right menu.
- Look for "Subscriptions", "Manage Services", or "Billing".
- Locate the active subscription you wish to cancel and click "Cancel Subscription" or "Stop Renewal".
- If no visible cancellation button appears, proceed to step 4.
- If the website provides no self-service cancellation, contact EasyPay (.trading) support directly via the email address listed in your account or on the website footer.
- State: "I wish to cancel my subscription effective immediately. Please confirm the cancellation by return email and process any refund due under the 14-day cooling-off period."
- Save the cancellation confirmation email in a dedicated folder or print it as proof.
- Confirm that the cancellation is effective immediately, not at the end of a billing cycle.
Cancelling EasyPay (lightcast) event and publisher subscriptions
- Log in to your EasyPay (lightcast) account at the publisher or event platform using your credentials.
- If you subscribed through a third-party platform (e.g., a news site or streaming service), log in there instead.
- Locate your subscription status under "My Subscriptions" or "Active Services".
- Check the subscription start date and any renewal date shown.
- Click "Cancel" or "Unsubscribe" next to the service.
- You may be asked for a cancellation reason; you can skip this or note "No longer required".
- If the platform does not display a cancellation option, email the publisher or event organiser directly and state your cancellation request with your account details.
- Include your transaction reference or order number from your Easypay receipt.
- Request written confirmation of cancellation within 24 hours.
- Ask specifically whether a refund will be processed and when.
Cancelling EASEPAY (.com) prepaid recharges
Prepaid mobile and utility recharges through EASEPAY (.com) are typically final-sale transactions and cannot be cancelled once the credit has been loaded onto your account. However, if you were charged in error or without authorisation, you retain cancellation rights.
- Log in to your EASEPAY (.com) account and review your transaction history.
- Verify the exact amount, date, and recipient of the recharge.
- If the charge was unauthorised or duplicate, contact EASEPAY support immediately with your transaction ID.
- State: "I dispute this charge and request a refund under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act."
- Request a refund to your original payment method within 14 days.
- If the recharge was legitimate but you have not used the credit, ask if a refund is available as a goodwill gesture.
- Document all correspondence and keep your receipt email as proof of the transaction.
How long does Easypay take to process a cancellation
Once you submit a cancellation request to Easypay, you should receive a confirmation email within 24 hours. The subscription should stop immediately or at the end of the current billing cycle-always clarify which applies. Refunds, if applicable, are processed within 5 to 10 business days to your original payment method (credit card, debit card, or digital wallet).
If you do not receive confirmation within 24 hours, resend your cancellation request by email and request a delivery receipt. Yafee advises that delays in confirmation can indicate a merchant hoping you will forget or miss the deadline-persist until you have written proof.
Easypay refund entitlements and timelines
Your refund rights depend on when you cancel and what you purchased.
| Scenario |
Refund entitlement |
Timeline |
| Cancel within 14 days, no consumption |
Full refund |
5-10 business days |
| Cancel after 14 days, subscription not yet renewed |
Partial refund (pro-rata) |

N/A |
| Prepaid recharge (final sale, not used) |

If Easypay does not refund you within 10 business days, send a follow-up email with your cancellation confirmation number and request a refund status update. Yafee has found that many merchants process refunds only after a second reminder.
Common cancellation mistakes to avoid
Cancelling Easypay is straightforward if you follow the legal framework, but several pitfalls can derail your refund or leave you liable for future charges.
Mistake 1: not keeping cancellation confirmation
Never cancel without saving proof. Screenshot the cancellation page, forward the confirmation email to yourself, or print it. If a dispute arises, you will need this evidence to show CASE or the Small Claims Tribunal that you cancelled on a specific date.
Mistake 2: cancelling through a third-party payment app instead of Easypay
If you subscribed via Apple Pay, Google Pay, or your bank's app, cancelling there does not always cancel the Easypay subscription-it only stops that payment method. You must still log in to Easypay directly and cancel the subscription itself. Otherwise, Easypay will attempt to charge an alternative payment method or flag the account as delinquent.
Mistake 3: assuming "Stop renewal" means immediate cancellation
Some platforms offer "Stop Renewal" (which prevents the next charge) and "Cancel Now" (which ends access immediately). If you only chose "Stop Renewal", you remain subscribed until the current billing cycle ends. If you want immediate access termination, select the cancel option explicitly.
Mistake 4: missing the 14-day cooling-off window
Under the CPFTA, your strongest refund claim applies only if you cancel within 14 calendar days. After 14 days, refund entitlements become discretionary and harder to enforce. Mark your purchase date in your calendar and cancel before day 14 if you are unsure.
Mistake 5: not citing the consumer protection (Fair trading) act in your cancellation email
If Easypay refuses a refund, a casual request carries less weight than a formal reference to your statutory rights. Write: "I am exercising my right to cancel under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act and request a full refund within 14 days." This phrase signals legal awareness and often unlocks refunds without escalation.
What to do after cancelling Easypay
Once your cancellation is confirmed, take three final steps to protect yourself and verify the action went through.
Monitor your bank account for residual charges
Set a calendar reminder for two weeks after your cancellation. Check that no further charges from Easypay appear on your statement. If a charge does appear after cancellation, it is a breach of contract-document it and contact CASE immediately with proof of your cancellation email.
Verify access termination
Log back into the Easypay platform 24 hours after cancellation and confirm that the subscription no longer appears in your account or is marked as "Cancelled". If the service remains active, contact support immediately and request emergency access revocation.
Save all documentation
Create a folder (digital or physical) containing: the original purchase confirmation, your cancellation request email, the cancellation confirmation, and at least two bank statements showing that no further charges occurred. Yafee advises that this file can be invaluable if you need to escalate to CASE or the Small Claims Tribunal later.

When to escalate to CASE or the small claims tribunal
If Easypay refuses your cancellation request or denies a refund you are legally entitled to, escalation becomes necessary.
Escalating to the consumers association of singapore (CASE)
CASE is a non-profit, independent watchdog that investigates unfair trading practices at no cost to you. To lodge a complaint, visit the CASE website (case.org.sg) and submit your complaint with the following documents: your original purchase confirmation, your cancellation request email, Easypay's response (or lack thereof), and your bank statement showing the transaction. CASE will contact Easypay on your behalf and mediate a resolution. Most cases are resolved within 4 to 8 weeks.
Filing a claim in the small claims tribunal
If the disputed amount is under SGD 10,000, you can file a claim in the Small Claims Tribunal directly. You do not need a lawyer. Fill out the claim form at the tribunal, attach your evidence (cancellation confirmation, proof of refusal, the CPFTA section numbers that were breached), and pay a filing fee of SGD 10-50 depending on the claim value. The tribunal will then schedule a hearing, usually within 4 to 8 weeks. Yafee recommends this route only after CASE mediation fails, as it is faster but requires you to present your case yourself.
Understanding how Easypay's cancellation process compares to competitors helps you assess whether switching is worthwhile.

Easypay's refund timeline is standard but its cancellation pathway varies significantly by platform. If you prioritise rapid, self-service cancellation, PayPal offers faster confirmation; if you need merchant support, Yafee finds that 2Checkout and Stripe are comparable to Easypay.
