Hi @babelectronics 

I've gone through your concern, and it sounds like you're trying to delete a Shopify account that was set up incorrectly. The key issue here is that Shopify doesn't allow full deletion of an account, but you can close it and remove your personal details to prevent further use.

How to Close Your Shopify Account Properly:

  1. Log into your Shopify admin – You must be logged in as the account owner.
  2. Go to Settings > Plan – This is where you can manage your subscription.
  3. Click “Deactivate Store” – Shopify will guide you through a few final steps.
  4. Select a Reason & Confirm – Choose why you're closing it, then confirm deactivation.

Additional Steps to Protect Your Data:

  • Remove Payment Methods: If you have any active payment info, remove it before deactivation.
  • Cancel Third-Party Apps & Domains: If you've connected a custom domain, transfer or disconnect it before closing your store.
  • Contact Shopify Support (If Needed): If you made a mistake during setup and need to start over, Shopify's team might be able to assist with data removal.

If you’re looking to completely erase all your account information, Shopify doesn’t provide a full deletion option, but your data is automatically removed after a set period according to Shopify’s privacy policies.

Let me know if you need any other help, and I’ll do my best to assist!

Best regards,
Daisy
