Close your account
Closing an account is deliberately gentle — it stops new joins immediately, lets visits in progress finish, offers you an export, and stays reversible for 7 days. After those 7 days your data is permanently deleted, so take the export before you close. Owner-only.
What closing does
- 1New joins stopAcross the whole account, immediately
- 2In-flight visits drainNobody is cut off mid-service
- 3You're offered a data export
- 4Reversible window7 days — one tap undoes it
- 5Permanently deletedOnce the 7 days are up
Closing it
- From Settings, choose Close account. It's in the “Danger zone” group.
- Type CLOSE to confirm. This enables the Close my account button.
- Press Close my account. You'll get a confirmation that closure is scheduled.
The part that surprises people: the subscription itself ends on the deletion date (the end of the 7-day window), not at the end of the month you paid for.
If you only want to stop the next charge and keep serving until your paid month runs out, don't close the account — cancel from Billing instead.
Changing your mind
| Button | What happens |
|---|---|
| Reverse closure | Reactivates the account. One tap, no fuss, everything back as it was. Available for 7 days after you close. |
A different clock applies if you never closed at all
| Situation | Kept for |
|---|---|
| You closed the account yourself | Reversible 7 days, then permanently deleted. |
| You never closed it — a lapsed trial or an ended subscription goes dormant instead | Kept 90 days, so you can come back by adding a card. |
Closing is the fast path; lapsing is the slow one.
If you never add a card
There is a third way an account ends, and it is the most common one of all — you sign up, have a look around, and never reach the card step.
You did not close it and you never started paying, so neither of the windows above applies.
- 1First 30 daysNothing happens, nothing is shown
- 2Warning emailAround a week before the 30 days run out
- 3Goes dormantLines stop taking visitors, nothing is deleted
- 4Add a cardPuts everything back as it was
The emails you will get
You are never deleted quietly. Every step sends the owner an email, in their own language, and each one tells you how to stop it.
If you close the account
| Subject line | What it says |
|---|---|
| “Account deletion scheduled.” | Sent the moment you close. Names the date, says your queues have stopped taking new visitors while anyone already waiting is still served, and reminds you that you can undo it at any time from the banner at the top of any page. |
| “Your account is deleted tomorrow.” | A last reminder, sent the day before. Gives you two links — one to undo the closure, one to download a copy of your data first. If you meant to close it, you do not have to do anything. |
| “Your account has been deleted.” | Sent once it is done. Nothing further is owed and no more messages are sent about it. |
The slow path — lapsing rather than closing — has its own two.
- An account still on its trial that has never opened a line is warned, about a week ahead, that it will pause — naming the exact date, with nothing deleted and everything kept exactly as it is.
- Once it's actually deleted, a final email confirms it's done — the same one the fast path gets.
