πŸ”’ Steps to Delete Your Stripe Account

  1. Log into Stripe directly using the credentials you created when setting up EventCreate payments:
    ​https://stripe.com/

  2. Navigate to Settings β†’ Account β†’ Close Account in your Stripe Dashboard.

  3. Follow the on-screen instructions to confirm account closure.

Important: Deleting your Stripe account is permanent. You will no longer be able to access past transactions, payouts, or account settings once the account is closed.


⚠️ Things to Consider

  • Make sure all pending payouts have been completed before deleting your account.

  • If you’re an EventCreate user, deleting your Stripe account will affect your ability to receive payments for events. You may need to connect a new Stripe account if you plan to continue selling tickets.

  • For detailed guidance from Stripe, see their support article:

πŸ“Œ Key Takeaway

To delete your Stripe account, always log in directly to Stripe at https://stripe.com/ and follow their account closure instructions. Deleting through EventCreate is not possible, as all account management happens within Stripe.
