How do I close my Qonto business account?
Qonto allows customers to completely close their business account online. The process is relatively straightforward, but it does require that all conditions are met before your account can be closed.
1. Log in to your Qonto account and go to the settings menu
There, choose the option “Close account”. Qonto only processes cancellations through the verified user environment and does not accept requests via email or phone.
2. Ensure that the balance on your account is € 0.00
Qonto can only close your account when all funds have been transferred to another account and there are no outstanding amounts. Also check any sub-accounts or currencies within your Qonto profile.
3. Check if there are any ongoing transactions, direct debits or refunds
Qonto will not close the account if there are still payments to be processed. Therefore, wait until all incoming and outgoing transactions have been fully completed.
4. Download all your invoices, transactions, and administrative documents
Qonto offers comprehensive export options, but after closing your account, you will lose access to the online environment. By saving everything in advance, you prevent important data from being lost.
5. Terminate any linked services or team members
If you have added multiple users to your Qonto Business account, they must be removed first before the account can be closed.
6. Submit the closure request definitively
Qonto will perform a final check and inform you as soon as the account has been fully closed. You will receive a confirmation via email.
