What happens to my data and campaigns after I cancel?

All your data — including subscribers, campaigns, automations, and reports — remains intact. Your account downgrades to the Free plan at the end of the billing cycle rather than being deleted.

What are the limits on the Free plan after cancelling?

The Free plan allows up to 500 active subscribers and 12,000 emails per month. Advanced features like priority support, premium templates, and some automation features are no longer available.

Can I get a refund when I cancel?

Refunds are only available within 30 days of the last transaction date. MailerLite does not refund unused portions of monthly or annual plans, plans purchased by mistake, or cancellations made after a new billing cycle has already started.

What happens to extra team members if I have a multi-user account?

The Free plan only allows one user. When your account downgrades, additional users are automatically removed. Make sure to reassign any critical tasks before cancelling.

Can I reactivate my paid subscription after cancelling?

Yes. You can upgrade back to a paid plan at any time from the 'Plan and billing' section in Account Settings. Your existing data will still be there.

How do I permanently delete my MailerLite account?

Cancelling your subscription only downgrades to the Free plan. To permanently delete your account, go to Account Settings and look for the 'Delete account' option. Deleted accounts have a 60-day grace period for data export or reactivation before permanent deletion.
