Mailgun-specific things to know

These details can help you avoid common issues when cancelling your Mailgun service.

API keys remain active briefly
Your API keys may continue working for a short period after cancellation. Update your applications before the service ends.
Email logs are retained
Mailgun keeps email delivery logs for 30 days after cancellation. Export important data before this period expires.
Custom domains need updating
Remove Mailgun DNS records from your domain settings after cancelling to avoid delivery issues with other email services.

Before you cancel, keep this in mind

These points can save you headaches and ensure a smooth transition away from Mailgun.

1. Export your data first

Download email logs, analytics data, and any custom templates before cancelling. This data becomes inaccessible after account closure.

2. Update your applications

Remove or update Mailgun API calls in your applications to prevent errors when the service stops working.

3. Check for annual commitments

Some Mailgun plans include annual commitments or minimum spending requirements that may affect your cancellation timing.

Consider these alternatives

If you're cancelling due to cost or usage changes, these options might work better than cancelling completely.

  • Growth: $80/month for up to 100,000 emails
