How to cancel Dinnerly through the correct billing owner
Web cancellation
Cancel Dinnerly through Web

3Choose Stop subscription
In the Manage subscription view, choose Stop Subscription and then Continue. Follow the prompts on-screen, selecting Cancel account when asked and then Proceed so that Dinnerly records that you are ending your subscription rather than just pausing or skipping a single order.
4Confirm before the order cutoff
Wait for the on-screen confirmation that your subscription has been stopped and for a confirmation email. Before the cutoff for your next scheduled box—typically 6–7 days before delivery, depending on your location—check the Orders page to confirm that future unbilled orders are skipped or removed, because Dinnerly notes that cancelling after the cutoff does not stop an order already in progress.
Mobile app cancellation
Cancel Dinnerly through Mobile app
1Open the mobile app and the Account page
Open the Dinnerly app on your iOS or Android device and sign in if prompted. From the main screen, go to your Account area by tapping your profile or account icon (labelled Account, Profile, or similar), where you can access your settings and upcoming orders.
2Open Settings
Within the Account area, open the Settings screen for your Dinnerly account. On some devices this appears as a Settings entry or gear icon; navigate there so you can see options related to your subscription and delivery plan.

3Choose Stop subscription
On the Settings screen, scroll to the section that manages your subscription and look for Manage subscription. Follow the same flow documented for the website: select Manage subscription, choose Stop Subscription, tap Continue, and then choose Cancel account and proceed through any remaining prompts until the app reports that your subscription has been stopped.
4Confirm before the order cutoff
After completing the prompts, open the Upcoming or Orders area in the app to review your next deliveries. Before your next box reaches its cutoff—generally around 6–7 days before delivery, depending on your region—confirm that no future unbilled orders remain active and watch for the cancellation confirmation email Dinnerly sends to your registered address.
Refund policy
Dinnerly refunds, credits, and unresolved orders
Dinnerly ties refunds and credits to product quality and delivery problems, not to simple subscription cancellation. Cancelling mainly stops new automatic orders; refunds or credits for existing boxes are handled case by case through support, under the satisfaction guarantee and billing rules set out in Dinnerly’s terms and Help Center.
Check my refund options- Cancellation vs. refund
- Stopping your Dinnerly subscription through Settings or support does not automatically refund any box that has already passed its cutoff or been billed. Terms state that cancelling or pausing after the cutoff results in a full charge for unskipped orders, which will still be processed and delivered.
- Freshness and ingredient issues
- Dinnerly’s satisfaction guarantee covers freshness and quality for a limited period after delivery. If ingredients arrive damaged, missing, or unsafe, you are asked to contact customer service within the stated timeframe so they can assess the report and decide whether to provide a credit or refund.
- Use of account credits
- Help Center articles explain that credits issued by Dinnerly remain on your account until the next unpaid, unskipped order is billed, and the system then automatically deducts the credit amount from that order’s total charge rather than issuing a separate payment.
- Refund timing and PayPal specifics
- Dinnerly notes that once a monetary refund is processed, it may take up to several working days to appear, depending on your bank’s policies. If you pay via PayPal, the refunded amount may return to your PayPal balance, and you may need to withdraw it to your bank account manually.
- Reporting delivery or ingredient problems
- For issues such as missing ingredients or spoiled items, Dinnerly recommends using the Report issue button within the relevant order, or contacting support, to document the problem. Depending on their assessment, they may apply account credit or, at their discretion, a partial or full refund.
If you believe a specific Dinnerly charge should be refunded or credited—for example due to damaged ingredients or a box you could not cancel before cutoff—contact Dinnerly directly with order details so they can review your case under their satisfaction guarantee and billing policies.

Deadlines & billing
Cutoff times, billing, and in‑progress orders
Dinnerly links cancellation to strict order cutoff and billing rules. Knowing when your box locks helps you see which deliveries your cancellation will and will not affect.
Typical edit and skip window
Dinnerly explains that you normally have until about 6–7 days before delivery, depending on your location, to edit or skip each generated order. After that cutoff, changes are no longer allowed for that box.
Billing occurs 5–6 days before delivery
Help Center articles note that your Dinnerly box is billed roughly 5–6 days before the delivery day, again depending on transit time and delivery area, with the cutoff at 11:59 p.m. local time on the day before billing.
Cancellation after cutoff won’t stop the box
Dinnerly’s terms and cancellation article state that cancelling or pausing your membership after the required cutoff leads to a full charge for unskipped orders and does not cancel a box that is already being processed.
How to see time left to edit
From your Orders page, selecting a specific upcoming order shows how many days you have left to edit or skip it. Indicators such as “1 day left to edit” mean you are already on the final day to take action before the box locks.
What cancellation does
What stopping your Dinnerly subscription changes
Stopping your subscription affects how future weekly orders are generated, but it does not retroactively undo any box that has already passed its cutoff or been billed.
Automatic weekly orders stop
Dinnerly describes its service as a flexible subscription where an order is created in your account every week. When you cancel your membership through Settings, those automatic future orders stop being generated.
Future unbilled orders are skipped
The terms explain that if you cancel before the applicable cutoff time, your first and all subsequent scheduled orders will be skipped automatically so they are neither billed nor shipped.
In‑progress orders still arrive
Both the cancellation article and the flexible subscription explanation note that any order already in progress when you cancel or make account changes will not be affected and will still be processed and delivered.
You can reactivate later
Dinnerly’s cancellation guidance states that you can log back in at any time, select Reactivate Subscription, choose a new first delivery date and time slot, apply any voucher code you have, and restart boxes from the same account.
First box specifics
Cancelling or rearranging your first Dinnerly order
Dinnerly treats your very first order slightly differently from later boxes. The order appears locked in your account, and changes must be handled through support before the cutoff.
First order locks right away
Dinnerly explains that your first order is locked as soon as your account is created, so you cannot cancel or move that box yourself through the normal edit tools once it appears in your account.
Cutoff still applies to the first order
The Help Center notes that your first order can be cancelled or rearranged only if you act before the normal cutoff time for that order—generally 6–7 days before delivery, depending on your location.
Support must action first‑order changes
Because the first box is locked, Dinnerly instructs customers who want to cancel or rearrange it to contact the customer communications team so they can process the cancellation or date change on Dinnerly’s side.
Use official contact channels
You can request first‑order changes by submitting a support request through the Help Center contact form or by using the email address provided in Dinnerly’s terms, making sure to include your account and delivery details.
Alternatives to cancel
Skip weeks or pause your Dinnerly account instead
If you only want a break, Dinnerly’s flexible subscription lets you skip or pause rather than fully cancel. These tools control when orders are generated without closing your account.
Skipping individual weeks
Dinnerly states that you can skip specific orders as long as you do so at least 6–7 days before the relevant delivery day, and you can schedule skips for up to several weeks in advance from your Orders page.
Pausing your subscription
Help articles explain that you can put your subscription on hold, choosing a return date so no new orders are sent until then. When the pause ends, Dinnerly resumes generating orders on your usual delivery day.
Changes don’t affect in‑progress boxes
The flexible subscription article cautions that any changes made when an order is already in progress—including skips, pauses, or plan updates—will not affect that order, so it may still be billed and shipped.
When to cancel instead of pausing
Dinnerly describes cancellation as another option within the same account tools, suitable when you no longer want ongoing weekly orders. You can always come back later by reactivating if you change your mind.
Market add‑ons
Market by Dinnerly add‑ons when you cancel
Market by Dinnerly offers optional grocery and add‑on items that ride along with your regular box. These add‑ons follow the same order and cutoff logic as the main meal kit.
Market items attach to a specific week
Dinnerly explains that Market items are curated groceries and extras you can add to a chosen weekly order through the Orders section; they are delivered only with that week’s meal kit and cannot be purchased on their own.
Same cutoff and change rules as the box
The terms specify that the same cutoff, skip, change, cancellation, and pause rules applied to your main order also apply to any Market items included in that order.
No new Market items after cancellation
Because Market items can only be added to an upcoming order, once your subscription is cancelled and there are no active future orders scheduled, you won’t be able to add new Market products until you reactivate.
Where to find Market item instructions
Dinnerly notes that printed recipe cards are not included for Market products; instead, instructions and product details remain available in your online account when you open the relevant order and select the item.
Account & emails
Account access, reactivation, and communications
Cancelling Dinnerly stops automatic shipments but does not by itself erase your account. Dinnerly distinguishes between subscription status, marketing emails, and full account deactivation.
Account remains available for reactivation
The cancellation article says that after stopping your subscription you can log back in at any time, select Reactivate Subscription, choose a new delivery date and time slot, and start receiving boxes again from the same account.
Cancellation confirmations
Dinnerly indicates that after you complete the Stop Subscription and Cancel account steps, you will see an on‑screen confirmation that no more boxes will be sent, and a confirmation email is also sent to your registered email address.
Managing marketing emails
The privacy policy explains that you can ask Dinnerly to stop sending marketing emails or correct your personal information by emailing their Customer Support with an opt‑out or correction request, which is separate from cancelling your meal subscription.
Requesting account disabling
Dinnerly’s privacy policy notes that, upon request, they can disable your account to prevent future purchases through that account. This is handled through Customer Support and is distinct from skipping, pausing, or cancelling upcoming boxes in Settings.
Refunds & credits
Quality issues, refunds, and account credits
Dinnerly focuses its refund practices on product quality and delivery issues. Credits and refunds are handled through support and your account balance, not automatically triggered by cancellation alone.
Freshness and quality guarantee
Dinnerly’s terms provide a freshness and quality guarantee for a limited period after you receive your box. If ingredients are unsatisfactory, you are instructed to contact customer service within a set number of days so they can review the issue.
Reporting ingredient or box problems
The Help Center directs you to log in, open your most recent order, and use the Report issue link to flag missing or problematic ingredients, optionally with photos. After review, Dinnerly may add a credit to your account as compensation.
How credits are used on future orders
Dinnerly explains that credits issued by their customer communications team remain in your account until your next order is billed, at which point the credit amount is automatically deducted from the total charge for that unpaid, unskipped order.
Refund processing timelines
A billing article states that when Dinnerly processes a monetary refund, it may take up to several working days to appear, depending on your bank’s handling time, and PayPal users may need to withdraw the refunded amount from their PayPal balance.
