    Dave.com offers a membership service that costs up to $5 per month. This membership gives you access to things like ExtraCash™, Income Opportunity Services, and tools to help manage your money. The monthly fee is automatically charged on the same date every month until you cancel your membership or close your Dave account. Just deleting the app won’t stop the charges, so you have to cancel the membership properly in the app settings if you no longer want to be billed.

    Tips & Tricks for Canceling Dave

    • Unlink Dave from your bank account first to prevent further charges.
    • Remove your debit or credit card linked to Dave from within the app under Settings > Linked banks and cards.
    • Expect follow-up emails asking you to resolve any outstanding advances after you unlink the account.
    • Account closure may be blocked if you have unresolved advances, so try to clear those before closing the account.
    • Wait for a few days after unlinking/removing payment methods to ensure no further charges go through.
    • Escalate by contacting customer support or replying firmly to resolution requests if Dave tries to enforce payments after you tried to unlink.
    • Do not authorize payment reversals with third parties prematurely without first removing Dave's access, else they could argue fraud.
    • Patience and persistence are key, as some users report it may take a week or more to fully stop charges.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is Dave's Cancellation Policy?

    Dave allows you to cancel your membership subscription at any time through the Dave Mobile App or by emailing support@dave.com. To avoid being charged for the next subscription fee, cancellation must be done at least 3 business days before the next scheduled charge. The membership fee is automatically debited monthly, and any failed payments may be collected again or combined with the next month's fee.

    Do I Need My Dave Password to Cancel?

    Yes, you will need your password to cancel your Dave subscription because you must log in to your account to access settings and close your account. If you don't remember your password, you can reset it by visiting this URL: https://support.dave.com/hc/en-us/articles/24613899662093. If you need help, you can also contact the Member Success team through the chat feature in the Dave app settings. This ensures your subscription and all financial accounts with Dave are properly closed.

    Why Do People Cancel Dave?

    • Persistent charges even after cancellation, causing continued unwanted billing.
    • Difficulty canceling memberships or stopping recurring fees, leading to frustration.
    • Misleading marketing about advances and fees, creating distrust.
    • Undisclosed fees such as "Express Fees" and "tips" that are only revealed after signup.
    • Feeling cheated or scammed due to unexpected charges and tactics to encourage tipping.
    • Better alternatives without fees found by users prompting cancellation.
    • Financial strain and attempts to cut spending on unnecessary subscriptions.
    • Lack of value perceived by customers due to small advances or poor service.
    • Bad customer service experience, including poor responsiveness and support.
    • Lack of flexibility in managing or editing subscriptions.
    • Cheaper or better competing services available.

    Can I Cancel Dave at Any Time?

    You can cancel your Dave subscription at any time through the Dave Mobile App or by emailing support@dave.com. However, you must cancel at least 3 business days before your next subscription fee is charged to avoid being billed for the subsequent month. There are no contracts, early-cancellation fees, or lock-ins, but if you miss the cancellation window, you will be charged for the next billing cycle.

    What Should I Know Before Cancelling Dave?

    Before cancelling your Dave subscription and accounts, know that cancelling your Dave Membership stops the monthly fee and related services at the end of the current membership cycle, but simply deleting the app does not cancel your membership or close your accounts. You must go into the app settings to cancel membership and separately close your bank accounts. Upon closing your Dave account, you will lose access to all Dave accounts, have your external bank accounts and debit card(s) disconnected, and your Dave debit cards canceled. Any remaining balances should be transferred out beforehand, and tax documents should be downloaded before account closure. The final monthly bank statement will be sent to you after closing.

    What Information Do I Need to Cancel Dave?

    • Full name associated with the account
    • Account number (if applicable)
    • Telephone number linked to the account
    • Active login to the Dave app (if canceling through the app)
    • Reason for closing your account
    • Confirmation that all cash advances have been repaid and balance is at zero
    • Request for written confirmation of cancellation (if via email)
    • Access to account history (suggested to print/export before closing)
