Frequently Asked Questions
When will the closure of my account occur once initiated?
If you have chosen a monthly billing frequency, it will occur on the last day of the current month. If you submit the request on the last day of the month, it will be postponed to the last day of the next month.
For annual billing, the closure will take place at the end of the prepaid commitment period.
You can track progress of your account closing request in your web app (Settings account > Price Plan & Invoices).
Can I reopen my account if it has been closed?
No, a closed account is permanently deactivated and cannot be reactivated in the future. Once an account is closed, all transfers made to it are automatically returned to the sender. Its closure results in the immediate, permanent, and irrevocable deactivation of your IBAN(s), cards, and the inability to receive or send transfers.
NB: You do not need to return your payment cards.
However, you can cancel your account closure request before the closing date by going to Price Plan & Invoices > Cancel Closure.
Does the closure incur any fees?
No, closing your Qonto account is free.
Do I still have access to my data after closing my account?
Yes, even if your account is closed, Qonto provides you with unlimited access to retrieve your transaction history and account statements.
