Core Issue:
Shopify does not allow users to directly remove credit cards from their accounts—only replacement is possible. This policy ensures a valid payment method remains on file for recurring charges.
Key Points:
Replacement Only: Users can add a new card through Settings > Billing, which becomes the primary payment method. The old card cannot be deleted through the admin interface.
Complete Removal: To fully remove card details, users must contact Shopify Support directly. The Account Integrity team handles these requests, typically taking 2-3 business days.
Closing Stores: Multiple users report being charged after closing their stores. To stop charges, stores must be properly closed via Settings > Plan and Permissions > Close Store.
Pause Options: Stores on paid plans for 60+ days past trial can pause for up to 3 months free, then $9/month (Pause and Build plan).
