You can delete your Uber Eats account through the app or website in about five minutes
Deleting your Uber Eats account removes your profile, payment methods, order history, and saved addresses from Uber's servers. The process is permanent — you cannot recover the account or its data afterward. If you have an active order or a pending refund, complete or cancel that first, because deletion will interrupt any in-progress transactions.
You have two routes: delete through the Uber Eats app on your phone, or delete through the website on a computer. Both lead to the same result. The app method is faster if you have your phone handy; the website method works if you prefer a larger screen or do not have the app installed.
Key Takeaways
- Delete your account through the app by opening your profile, selecting Account, scrolling to the bottom, and tapping Delete Account.
- On the website, go to your profile settings, scroll to the bottom, and click Delete Account, then confirm your choice.
- Canceling any active orders before deletion prevents payment disputes and ensures your driver is not left waiting.
- Deletion is permanent and cannot be undone, so read your order history first if you need records for taxes or reimbursement.
- If you share an Uber account with a family member, deleting Uber Eats removes the account for everyone on that shared profile.
Delete your account using the Uber Eats app
Open the Uber Eats app and tap the profile icon in the bottom right corner. This opens your account menu. Tap Account to see your settings.
Scroll all the way to the bottom of the Account page. You will see a red button labeled Delete Account. Tap it. The app will ask you to confirm that you want to delete your account and warn you that this action cannot be undone. Tap Delete Account again to confirm. Your account will be deleted when ready.
Delete your account using the Uber Eats website
Go to ubereats.com and sign in with your email and password. Click the profile icon in the top right corner and select Account from the dropdown menu.
On the Account page, scroll to the very bottom. Click the red Delete Account button. A confirmation window will appear asking you to confirm the deletion and warning that it is permanent. Click Delete Account again. Your account will be deleted right away.
Cancel active orders before you delete
If you have an order that is currently being prepared or delivered, cancel it before you delete your account. Open the app or website, go to Your Orders, find the active order, and tap or click Cancel Order. Wait for the cancellation to process — this usually takes a few seconds — before you proceed with account deletion.
Deleting your account while an order is active can leave your driver without payment confirmation and may trigger a dispute with your payment method. Canceling first ensures the driver is notified and you avoid unexpected charges.
What happens to your data after deletion
Once your account is deleted, Uber removes your name, email, phone number, payment methods, addresses, and order history from the Uber Eats system. You will no longer receive order confirmations, delivery updates, or promotional emails from Uber Eats.
If you have an Uber account (for rides) separate from Uber Eats, deleting Uber Eats does not affect it. However, if you use a shared Uber account that includes Uber Eats, deletion removes the account for all family members on that profile. If other people use the account, talk to them before you delete.
read your order history before deletion
If you need records of your orders for taxes, expense reimbursement, or personal records, read your order history before you delete your account. On the website, go to Account, scroll down to read Your Data, and click it. Uber will email you a file containing your order history, addresses, and account details within a few days.
The app does not have a read option, so use the website if you need this file. Once your account is deleted, you cannot retrieve this information, so read it while you still have access.
What to do if you want to keep your account but stop using it
If you do not want to delete your account permanently but straightforward do not want to use Uber Eats anymore, you can leave your account active and just stop ordering. Your account will remain in the system, and you can sign back in anytime if you change your mind.
If you want to stop receiving emails from Uber Eats without deleting your account, go to Account and look for Notifications or Email Preferences. You can turn off promotional emails and order updates there while keeping your account intact.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I recover my account after I delete it?
No. Deletion is permanent and cannot be reversed. Once you confirm deletion, your account, order history, and saved information are removed from Uber's system. If you want to use Uber Eats again, you will need to create a new account with a new email address.
Will deleting Uber Eats also delete my Uber rides account?
Only if you use a single shared Uber account for both services. If you have separate accounts for rides and Uber Eats, deleting Uber Eats does not affect your rides account. Check your Account settings to see whether your profiles are linked.
What if I have a pending refund when I delete my account?
Contact Uber support before you delete. A pending refund may not process if your account no longer exists. Go to ubereats.com, click Help, and select your issue to chat with support and confirm the refund is complete before deletion.
Do I need to delete my payment methods before I delete my account?
No. Deleting your account automatically removes all saved payment methods from Uber's servers. You do not need to remove them separately.
If I share an Uber account with family, will deleting Uber Eats affect them?
Yes. Deleting a shared account removes it for everyone on that profile. If other family members use the account, talk to them first, or ask them to remove you from the shared account instead of deleting the whole thing.
