Do it yourself

Cancel ShopSmarter yourself

TLDR: Open Account and select Cancel Membership, then Finalize Cancellation Request, or call 800-254-6536. A monthly membership is eligible for a refund of the first monthly bill, you can use it until the current term ends, and a later monthly fee is not prorated.

ShopSmarter charges show up as

  • SHOPSMARTER.COM

Cancel in your account

You can still sign in.

  1. 01Sign in at shopsmarter.com/sign-in.
  2. 02Click Account on the main menu and select Cancel Membership.
  3. 03Click Finalize Cancellation Request.

The terms describe a second screen: the Help tab, then Finalize Cancellation Request. Use whichever one your account shows.

Cancel by phone

You cannot sign in, or you want a person to process it.

  1. 01Call 800-254-6536. The cancel page says Customer Service is available 24/7.
  2. 02Give the email on the account and say you want the membership cancelled.
  3. 03Ask for the confirmation email.

The terms also list 888-734-7456 for ending the payment authorization. The cancel page and the first cancel sentence in the terms use 800-254-6536. Call 800-254-6536.

Cancel by email

You want the request in writing.

  1. 01Email customerservice@shopsmarter.com.
  2. 02Give your name and the email on the account, and say you want the membership cancelled.
  3. 03The cancel page says they process the email within 24 hours and then send a confirmation email.

How to know it worked

  • The cancel page says you get a confirmation email once they process the request. An email request can take up to 24 hours.
  • You can keep using the membership until the end of the current term. The terms say it is not renewed after that.
  • ShopSmarter says it does not charge a fee for cancelling. That is separate from a refund of a bill you already paid.

Watch out for

  • SHOPSMARTER.COM is the billing name for this membership. The price is not listed on the public cost page. It says to look under Billing in your account, or call 800-254-6536.
  • The terms list two phone numbers. Cancel with 800-254-6536, the number on the cancel page. The payment-authorization sentence later in the terms says 888-734-7456.
  • A trial ends in a paid membership unless you cancel before the trial ends. The terms say trial deadlines use Eastern Time. A 7-day free trial starts the paid term 7 days after you accept it.
  • The membership renews for the same length of time, at the then-current non-promotional rate, until you cancel. A message you send does not undo a charge they already submitted.
  • There is one membership and one welcome offer per household. Registration is for personal use by US consumers, and the terms exclude Iowa.
  • ShopSmarter and FreeShipping.com are different sites. Each says Clarus Direct, LLC owns that site. Cancelling ShopSmarter is only described on ShopSmarter's pages.

ShopSmarter refunds

  • The terms say that if you cancel a monthly membership, you are eligible for a refund of the first monthly bill. You may use the membership until the current term ends.
  • You are not eligible for a prorated refund of a later monthly fee for the current period.
  • If you believe a refund is owed, the terms say to contact them or call 800-254-6536. The cancel page publishes customerservice@shopsmarter.com.
  • ShopSmarter says cancelling has no fee. That does not refund a month after the first bill.

If it did not work

No confirmation email? Then it didn't happen.

Our letter comes with a receipt. This is when it is worth having us do it.

    The dated notice and proof of delivery are what your bank asks for when you dispute the charge.

  • The trial ended and the full membership fee posted

    The notice dates the cancellation against the trial deadline, which the terms say is when the paid term begins.

  • You would rather not chase support

    We post and email the notice, then follow up with ShopSmarter until they confirm. If they never do, you get your money back.

Cancelling ShopSmarter

What people ask about ShopSmarter.

What is the SHOPSMARTER.COM charge on my card?

ShopSmarter says SHOPSMARTER.COM is the name on your statement for the monthly membership fee. The dollar amount is in the Billing section of your account. Call 800-254-6536 if you cannot sign in.

How do I cancel ShopSmarter?

Sign in at shopsmarter.com/sign-in, open Account, choose Cancel Membership, and click Finalize Cancellation Request. Or call 800-254-6536, which the cancel page says is 24/7. Or email customerservice@shopsmarter.com. They say an email is processed within 24 hours.

Is ShopSmarter the same as FreeShipping.com?

No. They are different websites and different memberships. Each site's terms say Clarus Direct, LLC owns that site. Cancel ShopSmarter on ShopSmarter's own pages.

Can I get the monthly fee back?

The terms say you are eligible for a refund of the first monthly bill if you cancel a monthly membership. Later monthly fees for the current period are not prorated. Ask by email or at 800-254-6536.

Can you cancel ShopSmarter without me logging in?

Yes. The notice goes to ShopSmarter in writing, so it does not depend on you reaching a cancel button inside your account. A lost password or a locked account does not stop it.

Does the letter ask them to delete my data?

Yes. It asks the company to erase the personal data it holds on you where it has no lawful reason to keep it, and to confirm in writing once it has.
