Delete your account
What happens when you delete your account, and what to do first if you own a team with other members.
Deleting your account is permanent. You'll find it at the bottom of your profile page.
Before you start
- Own a team with other people in it? You must transfer ownership first. Otherwise you'll see "Transfer team ownership to another member before deleting your account."
- Want to keep your data? Once deleted it can't be recovered. Download any QR codes you want to keep first. See Design and export QR codes.
Delete your account
- Open your profile.
- Under Delete account, enter your password.
- Choose Delete account, then confirm in the dialog.
What happens
- If you're the only person on your team: your team, its links and QR codes are deleted, and any subscription is cancelled immediately. Short links you shared stop working.
- If you're a member of someone else's team: only your account is deleted. The team, its links and its subscription are kept.
- Your sessions are ended and you're signed out.
If we can't cancel your subscription for any reason, the account isn't deleted. You'll see a message asking you to try again, and nothing is lost.
Important: Anyone with a link or QR code from your team will see "This link isn't available" once it's deleted.
Not sure? You can pause a link instead of deleting it, or cancel your subscription and stay on the Free plan.
