How To Cancel Your Brigit Subscription

Financial tracking apps can be an easy and effective way to manage your finances. Brigit is one popular example, where, for a monthly subscription fee, users gain access to premium features such as credit building and monitoring, identity theft protection, cash advances and more.

While a paid Brigit membership offers many benefits, you might consider canceling your subscription to save extra money and pay off debt faster. In this article, we’ll walk through how to cancel your Brigit subscription.

How To Unlink Your Bank Account From Brigit

If your bank account is currently being used for a cash advance through Brigit, you cannot unlink your account until the advance has been fully repaid.

Currently, the Brigit website or app doesn’t offer a way to unlink your bank account without completely deleting your account. However, it is possible to switch your linked bank account through the app with the following steps:

1. Tap on your profile icon located in the top right corner of the home page.
2. Select “Connected Bank Account.”
3. Click on the green button that says “Switch to another bank.”
4. Follow the prompts to switch your linked bank account.

To verify you’re no longer paying for a subscription, head over to “My Subscription” on the Brigit website or in the app. Your subscription status should show as “Free” if it has been properly canceled.

If you’ve successfully deleted your Brigit account, you will receive an email saying your account has been deleted. Once your account has been deleted, you’ll need to wait 60 days before opening up another Brigit account.

How To Close Your Brigit Account

While it’s true that financial tracking apps can make budgeting easier, you can still create a budget that works without relying on cash advances or other features that apps offer. Follow the steps below if you want to delete your Brigit account altogether.

On the website:

1. Log into your account using a registered email address or phone number.
2. Click on “Settings.”
3. Tap on the words “Delete My Account” in gray.
