Cash Advance Apps

How to stop Dave from taking money?

Last Updated: Jun 13, 2025

If Dave is still taking money from your account, it means your account with them is still active. To stop them from taking money, you need to close your account either through the app or by emailing support@dave.com and requesting account closure. Before you do this, make sure to settle any outstanding balances, like ExtraCash advances, and transfer any remaining funds to your external account. Remember, deleting the app doesn't cancel your membership—you need to follow these steps to properly close your account.

How do I cancel my Dave cash advance account?

There are two ways to cancel your Dave account:

  1. Via the app: Settle any unsettled balances, transfer any remaining funds to your external account, and download your tax documents. Then open the Dave app, go to Settings > Edit Profile > Close my Dave Account, and confirm that you want to close all your financial accounts with Dave.
  2. Via email: Send an email to support@dave.com requesting to close your account. Include your full name, account number, and the phone number associated with your account. Make sure to send the email at least three business days before your next subscription fee is charged to avoid billing for the next month.

Note that deleting the app doesn't cancel your membership or stop the subscription fee—you need to follow the steps above to properly close your account. After closing your account, you won't have access to your Dave accounts, and your Dave Debit Cards will be canceled.

For assistance, you can contact the Member Success team by going to Settings in the Dave app and selecting 'Chat with us'.
