Unsubscribe from an email
If you get frequent promotional emails and newsletters in Gmail, you can unsubscribe from them. After you unsubscribe, it may take a few days for you to stop receiving emails from the mailing list.
Unsubscribe from a promotional email or newsletter
An animation demonstrating how to unsubscribe from a sender in Gmail on a computer. The user opens a web browser and goes to mail.google.com. In their inbox, they open an email and click the "Unsubscribe" link at the top. A confirmation message shows that the user has been unsubscribed.
Important: To unsubscribe, some senders may require you to go to their website. Instead of an unsubscribe option, you get a "Go to website" option in the email.
- On your computer, go to Gmail.
- Open an email you want to unsubscribe from.
- Next to the sender's name, click Unsubscribe.
- In the pop-up, click Unsubscribe or Go to website.
Tips:
- When you unsubscribe from a specific email, it might only unsubscribe you from a single mailing list from the sender. To unsubscribe and locate all active subscriptions from a sender, on the left, click More and then Manage subscriptions. Learn how to manage your subscriptions in Gmail.
- When you unsubscribe, instead of the sender’s name, you may find a unique identifier for a mailing list or list ID.
