How to delete a client

How to permanently delete a client from Settings → Danger zone, and what billing issues block deletion.

Written by Thomas Egelund

You can permanently delete a client from their profile settings. This cannot be undone.

Where to delete

  1. Open the client's profile

  2. Open Settings

  3. Go to Danger zone

  4. Choose delete client and confirm

When Coachway blocks deletion

Deletion is blocked while billing is still active. Resolve these first, then try again:

  • Active subscription: cancel the payment plan / subscription first

  • Unpaid (open) invoices: pay or void them first

  • Pending draft invoices on an active assignment: cancel the billing assignment first

Pending payment setup (offer not completed yet) can be cleaned up as part of deletion.

What gets removed

Deleting removes the client's coaching data on your account (check-ins, photos, assignments, messages, notes, payment history on that client). The email can later be reused for a team invite on the same account.

Tip: If you only need to stop coaching temporarily, use Pause instead of delete - that keeps history and can keep or remove app access.
