How to delete a company developer account, billing information, and cancel the subscription?

I need to delete the company developer account that I created but I can't find how. Can someone help?

With it, I also need to delete the billing information so that it doesn't show up on my personal account and also cancel the developer subscription.

I was sent here after posting on the developer community.

The developer account is just an Apple Account enrolled in the Developers Program. If you used your personal account to enroll in the Developer program and added the payment method to your account then your account is the developer account.


You'll want to cancel any associated subscriptions to it from the Account Settings on a device logged into it.

click here ➜ If you want to cancel a subscription from Apple - Apple Support

and here ➜ Program Renewal - Support - Apple Developer


Remove the payment method from it by following the steps in the support document linked below.

click here ➜ Remove a payment method from your Apple Account - Apple Support

You will need to wait until the Developer program subscription expires before it will let you remove the payment method however.


You can delete the account entirely by following the steps in the support document linked below.

But again, this will delete your own Apple account if you used it to enroll in the developer program.

The question you posted over in the developer area seemingly didn’t clearly mention that it was a developer subscription you were seeking to identify and delete, and were having issues finding. I suspect that confusion is why you were sent over here.


If you can log into the Apple developer portal via the Account tab in the upper right of that webpage, and if you can see the Apple Developer subscription associated with your Apple Account via the App Store app’s list of Subscriptions info, then you are using an Apple Account with developer access.


If you cannot, then you’re not enrolled with that Apple Account.


Here is how to contact Developer Support directly: https://developer.apple.com/contact/


Once you do find the Apple Account enrolled and unenroll it, apps associated with that developer account will cease to work. The Apple Developer program does have a means to transfer apps, if those are intended to continue to be available.

I tried all the cancellation methods (on the web, iPhone, Mac) but the developer subscription doesn't show up. I can only see the subscriptions for some apps. Here is a screenshot from the App Store subscriptions settings on my Mac.


Since the subscription is active, I can't remove the payment method.


Regarding the account, mine seems to be part of two companies:


The selected one is the one I created and want to delete, but I want to keep my personal account (which existed before the company account). I also want to stop being part of the other company (an old client).

Apologies if I'm mixing up the terms.


So what can I do?
