You can close your AstroPay account from the app, or by emailing us at support@astropay.com. Closure is permanent, so plan carefully before you start.

Before you close

  • Withdraw your balance: Transfer all remaining funds.

  • Resolve pending transactions: Make sure all transactions are completed.

  • Download documents: Save any statements or records you may need later.

  • Complete identity validation: Your identity must be verified before closure can be processed.

How to close your account

  1. Open the AstroPay app and go to Profile.

  2. Tap Close account.

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

If you prefer not to use the app, you can also request account closure by emailing us at support@astropay.com.

⚠️ Important: Account closure is permanent and cannot be reversed. Your phone number cannot be used to create a new AstroPay account after closure.

Closure vs. suspension

  • Permanent closure: Irreversible. Your phone number cannot be used for a new account.

  • Suspension: Temporary and reversible. You can reactivate once.

Special scenarios

  • Cannot log in: Request a device change or PIN reset first, or email us at support@astropay.com to request closure.

  • AstroPay unavailable in your country: Follow the market shutdown process to retrieve your funds.

  • Unauthorized transactions: Report them before closing to ensure proper investigation.

Once confirmed, your account is closed and you will no longer be able to access it.
