  • Once deleted, your account can’t be recovered.
  • If you’re on Canva Pro, Canva Teams, or Canva Business, cancel your plan first to avoid continuous charges.
  • All your designs, folders, templates, uploads, as well as teams and apps that you created will be permanently deleted as well.

I'm having an error when trying to delete my account

What can cause this

You own a Creator team, which can only be deactivated on our end to prevent Canva designs using your library content from breaking and allow us to continue paying you royalties.

What to do

Reach out to the Creators support team to request the deletion of your public details and the deactivation of your library content.

Need access to your designs later?

Download the designs that you want to keep before deleting your account. Learn how to download your designs.
