The view online and unsubscribe links are mandatory in every newsletter — required by GDPR, CAN-SPAM and CASL. Mailpro inserts them automatically and lets you customise them freely.

Important: never remove the unsubscribe link. Missing it can lead to fines, spam complaints and a damaged sender reputation.

Customise the link text

  1. In the editor, scroll to the footer
  2. Click the block containing the automatic links
  3. Edit the text (e.g. "Unsubscribe", "Stop receiving these emails")
  4. The original link stays active — only the label changes

Customise the style

  • Change colour, size and font
  • Add your company logo
  • Insert a short note ("You're receiving this because…")

What happens on click

  • Mailpro adds the contact to your unsubscribe list immediately
  • They will no longer receive emails from you
  • The event is tracked in the campaign report
