How to delete Dave cash advance app

Last Updated: Jun 13, 2025

If you're looking to close your Dave app account and ensure no more payments are deducted, you've come to the right place. Whether you've found an alternative financial tool or simply no longer need the service, deleting your Dave account is straightforward. This guide will walk you through the steps to close your account, settle any outstanding balances, and prevent future charges.

Deleting Your Dave Account Through the App

To close your Dave account directly from the app, follow these steps:

  1. Settle any outstanding balances: Ensure you've paid off any unsettled balances, such as ExtraCash advances. Dave may refuse your closure request if you have a negative balance.
  2. Transfer remaining funds: Move any remaining funds from your Dave account to your external bank account to prevent delays in accessing your money after the account is closed.
  3. Download important documents: If you need any tax documents or statements, download them from the Settings section in the app. After closing your account, you will lose access to these documents.
  4. Close your account: Log in to the Dave app, tap on the gear icon to access Settings, select Edit Profile, then tap on "Close my Dave Account". Follow any prompts to confirm your closure.

By completing these steps, your Dave account will be closed. Any linked bank accounts and debit cards will be automatically unlinked, and no further payments will be deducted.

Alternative Method: Closing Your Account via Email

If you prefer to close your account through email, follow these steps:

  1. Compose an email to support: Send an email to support@dave.com with the subject line "Please cancel my account".
  2. Include necessary information: Provide your full name, Dave account number, and the phone number associated with your account.
  3. State your request clearly: Explain that you wish to close your Dave account immediately and discontinue any future charges.
  4. Send the email in advance: To avoid being billed for the next month, send your email at least three business days before your next subscription fee is charged.
  5. Request confirmation: Ask for a confirmation reply to ensure your request is being processed.

Important Considerations

When closing your Dave account, keep these points in mind:

  • Timing is crucial: To prevent being charged for another subscription period, initiate the account closure at least three business days before the next billing date.
  • Loss of access: After closing your account, you will lose access to the Dave app and all associated financial documents. Make sure to download any important statements or tax documents beforehand.
  • Final statements: You will receive a final monthly bank statement at the beginning of the month following your account closure.
  • Automatic unlinking of bank accounts: When your account is closed, all linked bank accounts and debit cards, including your Dave Debit Card, will be automatically disconnected.
  • Outstanding balances must be resolved: Any negative balances or unsettled advances must be settled before your account can be closed.
