How to unsubscribe from Seamless emails
Seamless unsubscribe comes down to one control: the unsubscribe link in the footer of the promotional email itself. Seamless runs on the Grubhub platform - the two brands merged back in 2013 and share a single privacy policy - and that policy names the in-email link as the way to stop promotional messages. There is no separate marketing-preferences dashboard to hunt for. Service emails such as order confirmations and account notices are excluded from any opt-out and keep flowing when you order.

Method 1: the in-email unsubscribe link
- Open a recent Seamless promotional email - a promo code, perks reminder, or restaurant recommendation.
- Scroll to the footer and click the unsubscribe link.
- Follow the confirmation step on the page that opens. The link is tokenised, so you do not need to sign in.
Because this is the mechanism Seamless itself documents, start here rather than digging through account screens looking for a toggle that does not exist. Give it a day or two to propagate - a promo already queued when you clicked can still slip through once.
Method 2: your mail client's native button
Seamless marketing mail ships with the List-Unsubscribe header, which means Gmail places an Unsubscribe shortcut right next to the sender name and Apple Mail shows its unsubscribe banner. Clicking it fires the same opt-out as the footer link with less scrolling.
Method 3: texts and push
Order-related and promotional texts stop when you reply STOP to the sending number - the privacy policy calls this out explicitly. App push notifications have their own toggles inside the Seamless app settings and are untouched by any email opt-out, so switch those off separately if needed.
The sibling-brand catch, and verifying it stuck
The most common surprise after a Seamless opt-out is mail from Grubhub: same platform, same parent company, different sender lists. Your Seamless unsubscribe covers Seamless addresses only, so a Grubhub perks blast a week later is expected behaviour, not a failed opt-out. Genuine failures do happen though - reactivation lists in particular. Rather than assuming success, ClearMyInbox revisits the Seamless sender about four weeks after your opt-out and reports whether the mail genuinely dried up or needs another pass.
Mailbox-level fallback
Should promos persist, take it out of Seamless's hands. In Gmail, filter the specific promotional sender to Skip Inbox or Delete while leaving the rest of seamless.com alone so confirmations arrive. In Outlook, Sweep the address or add it to your blocked senders list under Junk email options.
What stays no matter what
Account verification messages, order confirmations, receipts, delivery updates, and security notices are service communications. The privacy policy states you cannot opt out of them - but they are order-triggered, so they only show up when you actually use Seamless.
Zooming out to the whole category
Delivery platforms are serial inbox offenders, and DoorDash is usually sitting a few rows above Seamless in the same inbox. For the complete sweep-them-all approach, read how to stop food delivery emails.
Frequently asked questions
Is Seamless owned by Grubhub?▾
Yes. Seamless and Grubhub merged in 2013 and operate as sibling brands on one shared platform under the same parent company - they even share a single privacy policy. Your Seamless login is a Grubhub-platform account.
What is the fastest way to unsubscribe from Seamless emails?▾
Click the unsubscribe link in the footer of any Seamless promotional email. The shared Seamless and Grubhub privacy policy names this link as the way to stop promotional email, and it works without signing in.
Will I still get Seamless order confirmations after unsubscribing?▾
Yes. The privacy policy is explicit that you cannot opt out of service-related communications such as account verification and transactional messages. Confirmations and delivery updates continue whenever you order.
Do I need to unsubscribe from Grubhub separately?▾
If Grubhub emails you too, yes. The platform is shared but each brand mails from its own sender addresses and lists, so opting out of Seamless promos does not automatically silence Grubhub promos or vice versa.
How do I stop Seamless text messages?▾
Reply STOP to the number sending them. The privacy policy documents STOP replies as the opt-out for order-related SMS and MMS messages.
