There is no universal unsubscribe button for postal mail.
So we built one.
Simply snap a pic of any unwanted mailer. PaperKarma IDs the sender and gets you off their list.
Why DIY is a pain:Every mailer has its own opt-out process
One mailer wants a form. Another wants a letter. Another requires a phone call. We've done that work for 100,000+ of them, over 10 million times.
Junk mail fades as mailers update their lists
A typical PaperKarma user's mailbox by week 12.
Junk mail doesn't stop overnight - campaigns are often printed weeks in advance. Most mailers go quiet within 8-12 weeks. Illustrative; each household's case differs.
Built for real junk mail. Honest about what no app can stop.
- Pre-approved credit & insurance offers
- Catalogs & magazines
- Charity solicitations & donation requests
- Real-estate postcards & local mailers
- Previous-resident mail
- Government mail - jury summons, tax notices
- First-class mail you actually requested
- Bills, statements & account notices
- Undeliverable "Current Resident" / EDDM mail
If it's addressed to a person, PaperKarma can unsubscribe you. If it's carpet-bombed to every address in a ZIP code, there is no list to take you off of. We'd rather be honest up front.

“I love how simple it is.”
PaperKarma stopped the junk mail I'd been getting for years. Super easy to use, and actually kind of fun!
“The only thing that has actually reduced my junk mail.”
I recently moved and low and behold ... I started receiving new junk mail. What a pain! I have been an avid user of PaperKarma once before and find it to be very effective.
“Finally, my mailbox is peaceful.”
As POA for my mother now, I learned Social Security death records make all widows / widowers vulnerable to every non-profit asking for cash. Everything I have been bombarded with since my father passed has finally stopped.
Before you decide.
Does PaperKarma actually work?
Yes. We submit opt-outs to the right channel for each mailer and maintain direct relationships with major credit issuers, banks, and insurers, for a 90%+ success rate on submitted requests. Most people see a noticeable drop within 4-6 weeks, with mail tapering off as each request takes effect.
What can - and can't - you stop?
We can stop pre-approved credit and insurance offers, retail catalogs, magazines, charity solicitations, real-estate flyers, and previous-resident mail. No service can reliably stop government mail, first-class mail you requested, bills and account notices, or undeliverable "Current Resident" mail blasted to every address in a ZIP.
Do you sell or share my data?
No. We use your name and address solely to submit opt-out requests on your behalf. We never sell or share your data - it is a core part of how the service is designed.
How long until I see less mail?
Opt-outs are processed per mailer and typically take 6-12 weeks to take full effect. Many people notice a meaningful drop within 4-6 weeks. We never promise instant results, because mail already in the pipeline has to clear first.
Why pay when some opt-outs are free?
Free services each cover a narrow slice - prescreened credit offers, or the ~1,100 ANA member mailers. PaperKarma covers the long tail of 100,000+ mailers from a single photo, so you do not manage a dozen separate opt-out sites yourself.
Do I need the app?
The app is the fastest way to snap and submit - it is how most people use PaperKarma. You can start free with 4 opt-outs to see how it fits your mailbox before choosing a plan.
