Sometimes you need to move on so you can delete your Babbel account at any time from your account settings on the app or the website. Because this action is permanent, it's worth checking what will happens with your subscriptions, progress and how to delete your account.


What happens when you delete your account

When you delete your account, you will permanently lose your learning progress, review items, streak and course history. Once you have confirmed the deletion, your account data will be removed and this cannot be undone.

Deleting your Babbel account will not cancel any purchases or subscriptions you have made through a third party, such as one of the app stores. Before deleting an account, check your subscriptions in your settings and cancel them if necessary.

However, if you just want to start again or receive fewer emails, there is no need to delete your account. You can reduce or turn off emails in your Email and notifications preferences, or reset your progress to start over without losing your account.

How to delete your Babbel account

To delete your account in the Babbel app:

  1. Log in to your account and tap the profile icon.
  2. Choose the Settings section.
  3. Tap the Delete Account button.
  4. Confirm that you want to delete your account.

To delete your account on the Babbel website:

  1. Log in to your account.
  2. Click the profile icon in the top-right corner and select Profile and settings.
  3. Select Account information on the left of the page, scroll to the bottom, and click Delete your Babbel account.
  4. Confirm that you want to delete your account.

We'll then send you an email with a confirmation link. Your account will only be deleted after you click on this link, so the deletion process will not be final until you confirm it from your inbox.  If you don't receive the email, check your spam or junk folder first.
