What is Mailjet
Overview
Mailjet is a cloud-based email delivery and marketing platform for sending transactional and marketing emails. It provides templates, SMTP relay, analytics, and tools for creating and managing campaigns.
Primary use cases
Businesses use Mailjet to send bulk newsletters, automated transactional messages, and to monitor deliverability and engagement. It supports segmentation, A/B testing, and collaboration features.
How to cancel Mailjet
Web (Mailjet account) cancellation
- Log in to your Mailjet account on the web.
- Go to Account Settings and click “Terminate my Mailjet account”.
- Provide a reason and enter your password when prompted.
- Confirm the termination. This is a permanent deletion.
Contract, custom or third‑party subscriptions
- If you are on a custom or contract account, contact your account manager or open a support ticket to cancel.
- Subscriptions via Apple App Store or Google Play are not documented for Mailjet; cancellation via those stores is likely not applicable.
What happens when you cancel
Access and data
Account termination from the web is permanent and will remove access to the account. Data retention and deletion follow Mailjet’s internal processes for terminated accounts.
Billing and renewal
Cancellation stops future renewals but does not typically lead to automatic refunds for prepaid periods. For contract customers, billing may be governed by your agreement and should be confirmed with your account manager.
Will I get a refund?
Standard refund policy
- No refunds are offered for prepaid monthly or annual subscriptions under Mailjet’s published policy.
- Annual plans are prepaid and explicitly non-refundable.
Exceptions
- Refunds may be issued in cases of double payment or interruption of service due to a technical issue.
- If you believe an exception applies, contact your account manager or support with proof (payment receipts, timestamps, error reports).

Your consumer rights in South Africa
Cooling-off and refunds
Mailjet’s published terms do not show a 14-day automatic right of withdrawal or refund for subscriptions. Standard policy states no refunds except for limited cases.
This policy may not align fully with South African consumer protection rules, which can provide cooling-off rights for certain digital goods.
Recommended actions
- Cancel via the Mailjet web interface to stop future billing.
- If you believe local law gives you further rights (refunds or withdrawals), consider raising the issue with consumer protection authorities or seeking guidance under the South African Consumer Protection Act.
Customer experiences
Positive feedback
Users report a user-friendly interface, good deliverability, intuitive dashboards, and generally good value for price. Several reviews praise prompt, effective support from named agents.
Negative feedback
Some users report account suspensions without warning and delays or scripted responses from support. Others mention interface bugs, limited template flexibility, and issues with statistics reporting.
Documentation checklist
Before you cancel
- Account email and login information.
- Recent invoices or payment receipts for the subscription period.
- Contract or account manager contact details if on a custom plan.
If you need a refund or dispute a charge
- Proof of double payment (bank statement, transaction IDs).
- Error logs or screenshots showing service interruption.
- Support ticket IDs or correspondence with account manager.
Common mistakes
Attempting to cancel through the wrong channel
Many users mistakenly try to cancel via app stores or other third parties. Mailjet’s documented cancellation is via the web account settings, and app store subscriptions are not documented for Mailjet.
Assuming automatic refunds
Users often assume cancellation entitles them to pro‑rata refunds. Mailjet’s policy states prepaid monthly and annual plans are not refundable except in narrow cases like double payment or technical interruptions.
