Once you’re ready, follow these steps to close your Paysend account:¹

Step 1. Log in to your Paysend account using the app

Step 3. Select Security and tap the menu icon in the top right corner

How to delete a Paysend account without logging in?

For security reasons, it’s generally not possible to delete a Paysend account without logging in. This helps prevent unauthorized users from closing accounts without verification.

How do I remove my credit card from Paysend?

If you no longer plan to use Paysend, removing a linked card improves your account hygiene.

To remove a linked card from your Paysend account, follow these steps:²

Step 1. Log in to your Paysend account
Step 2. Open your Profile from the main menu
Step 3. Scroll to the Linked cards and accounts section
Step 4. Select the card you want to remove
Step 5. Tap the menu icon in the top right corner of the card
Step 6. Choose Remove card and confirm

If you receive an error message or can’t remove the card, you can contact Paysend customer support for help. They may ask you to verify your identity before making changes to your account.

Removing a card doesn’t close your Paysend account. If you want to stop using the service entirely, you will still need to delete your account separately.

Before deleting your Paysend account

Deleting your Paysend account is usually quite simple, but there are a few important details to check out first. Taking these steps can help avoid delays and make sure you don’t lose access to important information.

Transfer any remaining balance

You won’t be able to delete your Paysend account if there’s still money in it. Make sure all funds are sent out or withdrawn before starting the closure process.

💡 If you’re unable to move funds out of your account, it may be due to Paysend’s transfer limits, which can vary based on your location, account tier, and verification status.

Download your transaction history

Once your account is deleted, your transaction history may no longer be accessible. If you need records for budgeting, taxes, or personal reference, download or save them in advance.

Cancel pending transfers

If you have any pending or scheduled transfers, cancel them before deleting your account. Open transactions can prevent account closure.

Check for unresolved issues

Accounts with disputes, verification requests, or restrictions may not be eligible for deletion. Review your account status and resolve any outstanding issues first.

Remove linked payment methods

If you have credit or debit cards linked to your Paysend account, remove them before deleting the account to reduce the risk of future charges.

Once these steps are complete, you should be able to delete your Paysend account without issues.
