Whether it's for privacy reasons, to clean up your online accounts, or simply because you no longer use AliExpress, you're in the right place.

I've been there too, and I can tell you the process is easy… as long as you know where to click.

In this guide, I’ll show you step by step how to delete your AliExpress account in just a few minutes — no headache.

Why Delete Your AliExpress Account?

Wondering if it's really worth deleting your account? Here are some valid reasons:

• You found another platform that suits you better.
• You want to clean up and reduce the number of online accounts you have.
• You’re concerned about your personal data privacy.
• You’re tired of receiving constant notifications and promotions.

But be careful — it's not a decision to take lightly. When you delete your AliExpress account, you permanently erase:

• Your order history,
• Your remaining balance (if any),
• And all your saved info (addresses, preferences, messages, etc.).

Take the time to back up anything important before proceeding.

How to Delete Your Account on the AliExpress Website

Prefer using the website instead of the app? Here’s the full process to permanently deactivate your AliExpress account from a computer.

1 – Log in to your account

• Go to the official AliExpress website.
• At the top right, hover over the little icon next to “Sign In / Join”.
• Click “Sign In”, then enter your email address and password.
• Forgot your password? Click the reset option to create a new one.

2 – Go to “My Account”

• Once logged in, click “My Account” at the top of the page.
• You’ll land on your personal dashboard with all your order and profile info.

3 – Open Account Settings

• In the left menu, click on “Settings”.
• This is where you can update your info or manage account deletion.

4 – Click “Deactivate My Account”

• In the settings page, you’ll see the “Delete Account” option on the right.
• Click it to start the deletion process.

5 – Confirm Deletion

• AliExpress will show a warning message explaining what you’ll lose.
• Make sure you’ve saved everything important before continuing.
• Enter your password again to confirm it’s really you.
• Finally, click “Delete My Account”.

⚠️ Important: If you have an open order or an unresolved dispute, deletion won’t be possible. You must fix these first. If you’re blocked, contact AliExpress customer support.

How to Delete Your Account on the AliExpress App

Prefer using the app? Here’s the simple method to delete your AliExpress account directly from your phone.

1 – Open the AliExpress App

• Launch the app on your smartphone.
• Tap the “Account” tab at the bottom right (icon of a person).

2 – Open Settings

At the top right of your profile page, tap the gear icon to access settings.

3 – Scroll Down

• In the settings menu, scroll all the way down.
• Tap “Delete Account”.

4 – Read the Warning Carefully

• AliExpress may block deletion if orders or disputes are still open.

5 – Confirm Deletion

If you’re ready, tap the “Delete My Account” button to confirm.

What Happens After Deleting Your Account?

Once your account is deleted:

• All your personal info is erased from the platform.
• You lose access to order history and past transactions.
• You won’t be able to recover your account or benefits.

Check before deleting:

• Download your receipts and order history if needed.
• Make sure there are no refunds pending.
• Use up any balance in your account to avoid losing money.

My Tips Before Deleting Your AliExpress Account

I totally understand wanting to leave AliExpress, especially if you’re concerned about privacy.

But before you go all in, here are a few tricks I use myself — they might be enough to protect your data without deleting the account:

1. Change your password to something unique and strong (don’t reuse it from other accounts).
2. Delete your saved payment info, just in case.
3. Turn off notifications and emails if you’re tired of getting promotions.
4. And most of all, if you have an issue, contact AliExpress support. It often helps.

Sometimes, a little cleanup is all it takes to start fresh — no need to delete everything.

Conclusion

Deleting your AliExpress account is a serious move. Once done, everything is gone: your data, order history, preferences… there’s no going back.

Before taking that step, I really suggest you save what matters: invoices, delivery addresses, even your balance if you have one.

My personal advice: If it’s just the endless notifications bothering you (sales, coupons, flash deals…), you don’t need to delete your account.

You can simply disable notifications in the app or unsubscribe from emails.

And if you’re not ordering anymore, just let the account sit unused. That way, you still have access to your past orders if needed.

FAQ About Deleting an AliExpress Account

Can I recover my account after deleting it?

No. Once deleted, your AliExpress account is gone for good. If you want to return later, you’ll need to create a new account with a different email.

What happens to my data after deletion?

AliExpress says your personal data (profile, addresses, orders, messages…) is permanently erased. But this may take a few weeks, just like other big platforms.

Can I delete my account if I have a pending order?

No. If you have an order still being delivered or a dispute in progress, deletion is blocked. You must wait until everything is delivered, confirmed, and closed before closing your account.

Can I remove just my payment info without deleting the account?

Yes, luckily! Go to Account Settings > Payment Methods and remove any saved cards or payment options.

Will I still get emails after deletion?

No. Once your account is deleted, AliExpress won’t send you any more emails, newsletters, or notifications.

Can I turn off notifications without deleting my account?

Yes — and that’s actually what I recommend if you're just tired of offers and promos. Go to My Account > Account Settings > Communication Preferences and unsubscribe from the emails you no longer want.
