Poshmark deletion is permanent and removes your entire selling history
When you delete your Poshmark account, the platform removes your profile, all listings, your sales history, and your reviews. You cannot undo this action. If you want to stop selling but keep your account history visible, Poshmark does not offer a deactivation option — deletion is the only way to remove your presence from the site.
The deletion process takes a few minutes and happens through the app or website. Poshmark will not refund any pending payments or credits in your account, so you should withdraw your balance before you delete.
Key Takeaways
- Withdraw any money in your Poshmark account before deletion, because the platform does not refund balances when you delete.
- Delete your account through Settings on the Poshmark app or website — there is no phone number or email support for account deletion.
- Deletion is permanent and removes your profile, listings, and sales history from Poshmark's servers.
- If you want to stop selling temporarily without losing your history, you can delist all your items instead of deleting your account.
Check your Poshmark balance and withdraw money first
Poshmark holds any earnings or credits in your account until you withdraw them. Once you delete your account, you lose access to that balance and cannot recover it. Open the Poshmark app or go to poshmark.com, tap or click your profile icon, and select "Earnings" or "Wallet" to see how much money you have.
If you have a balance, tap "Withdraw" and follow the steps to transfer it to your bank account or PayPal. Poshmark processes withdrawals within three to five business days. Wait for the transfer to complete before you delete your account.
Delete your account through the Poshmark app or website
On the Poshmark app: Open the app, tap your profile icon at the bottom right, scroll down to "Settings," tap "Account," and look for "Delete Account" at the bottom of the menu. Tap it and confirm that you want to delete. Poshmark will ask you to enter your password to verify your identity.
On the Poshmark website: Log in to poshmark.com, click your profile icon in the top right corner, select "Settings," click "Account," scroll to the bottom, and click "Delete Account." Enter your password when prompted and confirm the deletion.
After you confirm, Poshmark removes your account when ready. You will no longer be able to log in, and your profile will no longer appear on the site.
What happens to your listings and sales history
All of your active listings disappear from Poshmark when you delete your account. Buyers who previously purchased from you will no longer see your profile or reviews you left for them. Your sales history is removed from Poshmark's public view, though the platform may retain records for legal or tax purposes.
If you have pending sales or active offers, those transactions will be cancelled. Buyers who made offers on your items will receive a notification that your account has been deleted.
Delist your items instead if you want to keep your account
If you want to stop selling but keep your account and history, you can delist all your items instead of deleting. Open each listing, tap the three dots or menu icon, and select "Delete Listing." Your profile will still exist, but no items will be for sale.
This option lets you return to selling later without losing your reviews, follower count, or sales record. You can also pause your account by not listing anything new, which keeps your profile active without requiring deletion.
Reasons to delete versus reasons to keep your account
Delete your account if you do not plan to use Poshmark again and want your personal information and sales history removed from the platform. Deletion also prevents anyone from messaging you through Poshmark or seeing your past activity.
Keep your account if you might sell again in the future, want to preserve your seller rating and reviews, or want to continue buying on Poshmark. Keeping your account does not cost anything, and you can straightforward stop listing items whenever you want.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I reactivate my account after I delete it?
No. Deletion is permanent. You cannot recover a deleted account or its data. If you want to use Poshmark again, you will need to create a new account from scratch.
What happens to my followers and the people I follow?
When you delete your account, your followers lose access to your profile and cannot see your listings or activity. The accounts you followed will no longer show you as a follower.
Will Poshmark delete my account if I do not use it?
Poshmark does not automatically delete inactive accounts. Your account will remain active indefinitely unless you delete it yourself. You can log in anytime to reactivate or manage your listings.
Can I delete my account if I have an active sale or pending payment?
Yes, but the transaction will be cancelled. If a buyer has already paid and the sale is in progress, contact Poshmark support before deleting to understand what happens to that order. Pending payments will not be transferred to you after deletion.
Is there a way to temporarily pause my account instead of deleting it?
Poshmark does not offer account suspension or pause features. Your options are to keep your account active (with or without listings) or delete it permanently. Delisting all items is the closest option to pausing without losing your account history.
