How to unsubscribe from marketing emails?

How-to
Account & SettingsUser Guide
TL;DR

Open a newsletter email from [email protected] and click the "unsubscribe here" link at the top of the email, then confirm on the page that opens. Note: the newsletter and a paid GJW Premium subscription are completely separate — unsubscribing from emails does NOT cancel paid billing.

Answer

To stop the newsletter and other marketing emails, use the "unsubscribe here" link inside any newsletter email — in Gan Jing World newsletters it appears at the top of the email rather than the bottom — and confirm on the page that opens. It can take a short while for the last already-queued emails to stop. If the link doesn't work or emails continue, contact Customer Service and ask to be removed from the email list; agents can remove addresses manually. If what you actually want is to stop charges, that is a different action: cancel the paid plan under avatar → "Purchases & Subscriptions".

  1. 1

    Open a newsletter email

    Find any newsletter email in your inbox — the sender is [email protected].

  2. 2

    Click the unsubscribe link

    Click the "unsubscribe here" link. In Gan Jing World newsletters it appears at the TOP of the email — many senders put it at the bottom, so look up top first.

  3. 3

    Confirm on the page that opens

    Complete the confirmation on the page that opens. It can take a short while for the last already-queued emails to stop arriving.

Warning

The email newsletter and a paid GJW Premium subscription are completely separate. Unsubscribing from emails does NOT cancel paid billing, and canceling a paid plan does NOT stop the newsletter.

Transactional vs marketing emails#

  • Under the Terms of Use, users agree to receive transactional and promotional emails, but can unsubscribe from marketing at any time via the unsubscribe link.
  • Transactional emails — receipts ("Your receipt from Ganjingworld Corporation"), verification codes, and failed-payment notices — are tied to account activity, not marketing, and cannot be opted out of while you have an account or subscription.

If the link doesn't work or emails continue after unsubscribing, contact Customer Service and ask to be removed from the email list — agents can remove addresses manually.

Want to stop charges instead?#

If what you actually want is to stop your card being charged, that is a different action: click your avatar → "Purchases & Subscriptions" and cancel the plan. See "How to cancel GJW+" for the full steps.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will unsubscribing stop my card being charged?+
No. The email newsletter and a paid GJW Premium subscription are completely separate. To stop charges, cancel the paid plan: avatar → "Purchases & Subscriptions" → cancel the plan.
Why do I still get receipts after unsubscribing?+
Receipts ("Your receipt from Ganjingworld Corporation"), verification codes, and failed-payment notices are transactional emails tied to your account activity, not marketing. They cannot be opted out of while you have an account or subscription.
The unsubscribe link doesn't work or emails keep coming — what now?+
Contact Customer Service and ask to be removed from the email list — agents can remove addresses manually.
I don't have an account but I get the emails — why?+
Newsletter signup is separate from platform accounts, so you can receive the newsletter without ever creating an account. Use the unsubscribe link in the email, or contact Customer Service to be removed.
If I cancel my paid subscription, will the newsletter stop too?+
No. Canceling a paid plan does not stop the newsletter — unsubscribe from the emails separately using the link in any newsletter.
