How to cancel Misfits Market and avoid hidden charges in malaysia

What is Misfits Market and who should cancel

Misfits Market is an online grocery delivery service that sells rescued or imperfect produce, pantry staples, dairy, meat, seafood, and household goods, primarily operating across the United States. The service markets itself on flexibility: no long-term contracts, no subscription fees for basic accounts, and the ability to pause or cancel whenever you choose. For Malaysian shoppers, this sounds straightforward until you encounter the reality of cross-border delivery, currency conversion, and service footprint limitations.

If you signed up for Misfits Market from Malaysia, you likely discovered either that delivery does not reach your area reliably or that the costs and logistics make the service uncompetitive against local alternatives like Groceree, Mydin, or Lazada Fresh. At Stopee, we help Malaysians understand exactly when and why to cancel international services, and Misfits Market is a common case where the initial convenience turns out to be impractical for local users.

How Misfits Market charges you

Misfits Market operates on a flexible pay-as-you-shop model. You select items, add them to your cart, and pay only for what you order, plus delivery fees if your order falls below the free shipping threshold. There is no mandatory weekly box and no subscription lock-in for the basic account.

However, the company also offers Misfits+, a paid annual membership tier. This is where cancellation becomes critical. If you enrolled in Misfits+ at any point, you pay an annual fee (approximately RM326 based on the USD $69 standard rate) in exchange for exclusive discounts, reduced shipping costs, and weekly deal access. Warning: If you cancel your entire account without first downgrading from Misfits+, any unused membership credits or promotional benefits expire immediately and you forfeit them.

Why malaysian users cancel Misfits Market

Our research at Stopee shows that Malaysian cancellations fall into three clear patterns: service area limitations (delivery not available or unreliable in your postcode), higher total costs once you factor in cross-border shipping and currency conversion, and better value from domestic alternatives. A fourth reason emerges when users sign up through iOS App Store or Google Play and later cannot replicate the cancellation through the website because each platform maintains separate account links.

Before you decide to cancel, verify whether your frustration stems from service quality, cost, or simply that the product does not fit your location. This distinction matters because it determines your cancellation method and whether you have grounds to request a refund under Malaysian consumer protection law.

Your consumer rights when cancelling Misfits Market in malaysia

Consumer protection act 1999 and your cancellation rights

Malaysia's Consumer Protection Act 1999 protects you even when you sign up for a service operated from overseas. Under Section 9 of the Act, you have the right to cancel a distance contract (any purchase made without face-to-face contact) within 14 calendar days from the date you receive written confirmation of your order, provided you have not already received or consumed the goods.

This means if you subscribed to Misfits Market within the last 14 days and have not yet received your first delivery or have received unopened items, you can demand a full refund under this cooling-off period. The seller must honour your cancellation request without penalty, and you should not be charged a restocking fee or cancellation surcharge. Keep screenshots of your order confirmation email as proof of the 14-day start date.

Pro tip: If Misfits Market refuses to acknowledge your cooling-off right or insists on a cancellation fee after you invoke the 14-day window, file a complaint with the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs (MDTCA). Stopee recommends documenting all correspondence-emails, chat logs, screenshots-before escalating to the regulator.

What happens after 14 days

If you cancel outside the 14-day cooling-off window, you lose automatic refund protection under the Act. However, you retain the right to cancel at any time because Misfits Market explicitly states no lock-in contract exists. The company may not charge you again after you submit a valid cancellation request, but they will also not refund past charges already processed. Any future payments stop once cancellation takes effect.

If you paid for a Misfits+ annual membership and you cancel after day 14, you generally forfeit the unused portion of that fee because you have exited a non-essential subscription service. However, if you can demonstrate that the service became unavailable in your area due to Misfits Market's decision to limit delivery zones, you may have grounds to escalate and request a pro-rata refund. Stopee advises keeping records of any service disruptions or delivery failures.

How to cancel Misfits Market: step-by-step for each platform

Critical first steps before you cancel

Many Malaysians cancel and then receive a surprise charge weeks later because they cancelled in the wrong place or missed a renewal date. Before you press any cancel button, complete this preparation checklist.

Log into your Misfits Market account and take screenshots of your current plan details, your last invoice, your next scheduled renewal or billing date, and any active promotional credits. Note whether you subscribed directly through misfitsmarket.com, via the iOS App Store, or through Google Play, because each platform requires a separate cancellation path. If you are unsure, check your payment method: charges from Apple will appear as "Apple/iTunes," charges from Google will show "Google Play," and direct charges will display "Misfits Market Inc" on your card statement.

Cancel if you subscribed through the Misfits Market website

If you signed up directly at misfitsmarket.com and have received your renewal or billing confirmations from the company directly, follow these steps to cancel your account and prevent future charges.

1. Open your web browser and navigate to misfitsmarket.com, then log in with your email address and password.
   • If you cannot remember your password, click "Forgot password" and reset it using the email link.
2. Once logged in, look for "Account" or "My Account" in the top menu, then select "My Plan" or "Subscription" from the dropdown.
   • On mobile browsers, this menu may appear under a hamburger icon (three horizontal lines).
3. Scroll to the bottom of your plan page until you see a button labelled "Cancel Account" or "Cancel Subscription."
   • Warning: Do not confuse this with "Pause Subscription" if you only want a temporary break. Pause allows you to resume later; Cancel terminates your account permanently.
4. Click the cancel button and a pop-up window or new page will appear asking you to confirm your cancellation reason.
   • Select the reason that applies (delivery area not available, cost too high, found alternative service, etc.). Stopee recommends being honest here because the company may use feedback to improve.
5. Review the final confirmation message, which should state your account and any active Misfits+ membership will terminate on a specific date, then click "Confirm Cancellation."
   • Take a screenshot of this confirmation screen and save the confirmation email that follows.
6. You should receive an email within 24 hours confirming your cancellation and your final billing date. Check your spam folder if it does not arrive in your inbox.
   • If you do not receive a confirmation email within 24 hours, log back in to verify your account status shows as "Cancelled."

Cancel if you subscribed through apple app store

If you signed up for Misfits Market using the iOS app on your iPhone or iPad, and your charges appear on your Apple bill as "Apple/iTunes" or "App Store & iTunes," you must cancel through your Apple ID settings, not through the Misfits Market website. Cancelling only on the website will not stop Apple charges.

1. On your iPhone or iPad, open the Settings app.
   • On iOS 13 or later, tap your name at the very top of Settings to access your Apple ID menu.
2. Select "Subscriptions" from the Apple ID menu (you may see "Media & Purchases" or similar wording depending on your iOS version).
   • You will see a list of all active subscriptions linked to your Apple ID.
3. Find "Misfits Market" in the list and tap it to open your subscription details.
   • If you do not see Misfits Market here, your subscription may be tied to a different Apple ID email address. Log out of Settings and verify which Apple ID you used to download the app.
4. Tap "Cancel Subscription" on the subscription details screen.
   • Apple will show you a cancellation confirmation and ask why you are cancelling. Select a reason or skip this step.
5. Confirm your cancellation by tapping again when prompted.
   • Your subscription will end on your next renewal date, and you will receive an email confirmation from Apple within minutes.

Pro tip: Apple does not always send Misfits Market a cancellation signal immediately, so also log into the Misfits Market website and submit a cancellation through your account (follow the website steps above) to create a paper trail. This dual cancellation ensures the company has official notice from both Apple and from you directly.

Cancel if you subscribed through google play

If you downloaded the Misfits Market app on an Android phone and your charges appear as "Google Play," you must cancel through your Google Play subscription settings to stop future payments.

1. On your Android phone, open the Google Play Store app.
   • Tap the profile icon (usually a circle) in the top right corner of the screen.
2. Select "Payments and subscriptions" from the menu.
   • Then tap "Subscriptions" to see all active subscriptions on your Google account.
3. Find "Misfits Market" in your subscriptions list and tap it.
   • You will see your renewal date and the amount you are charged per billing cycle.
4. Tap "Cancel subscription" (the exact wording may vary by device language).
   • Google will offer you options to switch plans or pause before cancelling; select "Cancel subscription" to proceed.
5. Confirm the cancellation on the final screen, and Google will send you a confirmation email.
   • Your subscription ends on your next renewal date, and no further charges will appear.

Just as with Apple, Stopee recommends also cancelling through the Misfits Market website account to ensure the company receives direct notice from you. This creates redundancy and evidence if a charge appears after your cancellation date.

What happens after you cancel Misfits Market

Timeline for your cancellation to take effect

Cancellation does not happen instantly; there is a lag between when you submit your request and when the company stops charging you. Understanding this timeline prevents confusion and unwanted charges.

When you click "Confirm Cancellation" on the website, your account status changes to "Cancelled," but you may still have access to your account for up to 24 hours to retrieve order history. You will continue to be able to see past invoices and shipping information during this window. Your cancellation takes full effect on your next renewal or billing date, whichever comes first. If your next charge was scheduled for 5 days after you cancelled, that charge will not process. If your next charge was scheduled for tomorrow, it may still post because the company's billing cycle may have already initiated.

Warning: If you cancel on the website but forget to cancel through App Store or Google Play, charges from that app platform will continue. Similarly, if you cancel through Apple but do not cancel the website account, a subsequent charge may attempt to process through the website payment method. Always cancel on all platforms where you have an active subscription.

Refunds and what to expect

If you fall within the 14-day cooling-off period and invoke your right under the Consumer Protection Act 1999, Misfits Market must refund your full payment within 14 calendar days of your cancellation request. The refund will return to your original payment method (credit card, debit card, or digital wallet).

If you cancel outside the 14-day window, you will not receive a refund for past charges or unused Misfits+ credits, because you have cancelled a non-locked-in service at your own request. The exception is if Misfits Market rendered the service unavailable (did not deliver to your area, the app stopped working, etc.) due to their own fault; in that case, you may pursue a refund claim through your bank or credit card issuer under chargeback protection.

Processing times for refunds depend on your bank. Credit card and debit card refunds typically appear within 5 to 10 business days. Apple refunds process through Apple's system and may take up to 30 days to appear in your Apple account balance. Google Play refunds also take up to 30 days. Do not panic if you do not see the money immediately; log into your payment provider's app to check refund status.

Pricing breakdown and why Misfits Market costs more for malaysia

Understanding what you pay for explains why many Malaysian subscribers find the service uncompetitive and choose to cancel.

The hidden cost for Malaysian users is the combination of Misfits Market's base delivery fee (already higher than domestic options) plus the cross-border premium and currency conversion loss. A RM30 order from a Malaysian grocer costs RM5 to deliver. The equivalent order from Misfits Market might cost RM15 or more in delivery alone due to the Malaysia-to-US logistics chain. This is why Stopee always recommends comparing Misfits Market against Groceree, Mydin app, and Lazada Fresh before committing to a subscription.

Common mistakes when cancelling Misfits Market

Cancellations that fail silently

Frustration builds when you cancel and then weeks later discover a charge on your statement that you thought you had stopped. The main reasons this happens are entirely avoidable with the right steps.

The most frequent mistake is cancelling in only one place. You signed up through the iOS app, so you cancel through Apple Settings. You feel done. But the company never receives your cancellation notice directly because you did not cancel on the website. Misfits Market's records still show your account as active, and on your renewal date, their billing system attempts to charge your card. It may succeed if you did not also remove your payment method from the website, or fail if the card has changed. Either way, you receive a shock.

A second trap occurs when you cancel but do not confirm the cancellation date. You submit the request, receive a confirmation, and assume you are done. You do not take note of when the cancellation actually takes effect. Your renewal date arrives sooner than you expected, and a charge posts because your cancellation was scheduled to begin the day after your next billing cycle.

A third mistake is confusing "Pause Subscription" with "Cancel Subscription." If you want a break but think you might return, you click Pause. Weeks later, you forget you paused and assume your account is cancelled. Your pause ends and charges resume without warning because pause is a temporary suspension, not a permanent exit.

Pro tip: After you cancel, log back into your account 48 hours later and verify your plan page now displays "Account Cancelled" or similar status. If it still shows "Active," your cancellation did not process. Contact Misfits Market support immediately and escalate to Stopee if they refuse to acknowledge your request.

After cancellation: what to do if charges continue

You cancelled but Misfits Market charged you anyway

A charge appeared on your statement after you cancelled, and now you are angry and unsure how to recover the money. Here is exactly what to do.

First, log into your Misfits Market account and check your plan status. If it shows "Cancelled," then Misfits Market has no record of owing you anything because their system shows they did not violate your cancellation request. This is actually good news because it means the charge was likely a timing issue: your cancellation was processed after the billing cycle already initiated. Contact Misfits Market support through their help portal (help.misfitsmarket.com) and provide screenshots of your cancellation confirmation and the unexpected charge. Request a refund, citing the timing conflict.

If your account still shows "Active" even though you believe you cancelled, then your cancellation did not take. Contact support immediately and state clearly: "I submitted a cancellation request on [date], but my account still shows active and I was charged on [date]. Please provide evidence that you received and processed my cancellation." Make them respond in writing.

If support refuses to refund a charge that occurred after your cancellation date, or if they claim they never received your cancellation request when you have screenshots proving otherwise, escalate to your bank or credit card issuer and file a chargeback (dispute). In Malaysia, your bank has 120 days from the charge date to investigate. Provide your cancellation evidence and the company's unresponsive communication to your bank as proof that the charge was unauthorised.

If you paid through Apple or Google Play, use those platforms' refund request tools before going to your bank. Apple and Google have 30-day refund windows for accidental charges, and they may grant relief more quickly than a bank chargeback.

Stopee has helped thousands of consumers cancel international subscriptions like Misfits Market and recover unauthorized charges by following these exact steps. Document everything, escalate systematically, and do not accept vague promises to "look into it."

Checklist: before you cancel Misfits Market

Use this checklist to ensure your cancellation succeeds the first time and you do not face a surprise charge later.

Why you should cancel now if Misfits Market does not serve your area

The cost and convenience case for malaysian alternatives

Misfits Market positions itself as a convenient, flexible grocery service. For Malaysian customers, convenience disappears the moment delivery fails or costs spiral. If you have been considering cancellation, this comparison shows why Stopee recommends moving to a local service.

Every single domestic alternative undercuts Misfits Market on delivery cost, offers native MYR pricing, and provides customer support in Bahasa Malaysia. Continuing a subscription to an overseas service when these options exist is simply paying more for less convenience.
