The exact steps from Constant Contact's own help pages, plus what happens to your money and your data, so there are no surprises.
Steps to cancel Constant Contact
- 1Open your account settings.
- 2Click the "Billing" tab.
- 3Scroll down and click "Manage plan".
- 4Follow the on-screen prompts to cancel (click "Undo cancellation" before the cancel date if you change your mind).
Before you cancel
- When it takes effect
- Your account is officially cancelled on your next billing date, and you keep full access until then. Free trials don't need to be cancelled; they end on their own.
- Refunds
- Prepayments are non-refundable, even if you cancel before the end of your billing term. Unused credits or prepayment pools are forfeited.
- Your data
- Constant Contact only guarantees to keep your account and data for 30 days after cancellation; after that, contacts and content may be permanently deleted. Export your contacts, including your unsubscribed list, before cancelling.
- Rather pause or downgrade?
- You can suspend (put the account on hold) for a low monthly fee, which keeps contacts, campaigns and reports, or downgrade to a lower-tier plan.
- If you can't cancel online
- If online cancellation isn't available for your account, call Billing Support at 855-229-5506 (US/Canada) or +1 781-472-8120 (outside US/Canada) with your username ready. You can also email social_support@constantcontact.com from the account's main or billing email address.
