To delete your Higgsfield account: click your avatar, go to Manage Account → Personal Profile, scroll to “Manage Account Deletion” and confirm Delete Account (checked 4 Nov 2026). It cancels your subscription automatically and starts a 30-day recovery window — sign back in within 30 days to restore everything.

Best for: users certain they want out — this guide gives the official steps and the 30-day recovery window, so nothing about deletion is a surprise.

Not for: anyone who just wants to pause spending — cancel the subscription instead; or users hoping to keep their generations, which deletion removes permanently after 30 days.

Starting price: Free — deleting costs nothing; the question is what you lose: credits, generations and Soul ID characters (checked 4 Nov 2026).

How to delete your Higgsfield account: the official steps

These steps come from Higgsfield’s official account help article (checked 4 Nov 2026). Follow them exactly — the deletion control lives in a specific place, and looking under billing settings won’t find it.

  1. Click your avatar — it’s in the top-right corner of the Higgsfield website or app, showing your profile picture or initials. This opens the account menu.
  2. Select “Manage Account” from the dropdown menu. This takes you to the account management area where profile, billing and security settings live.
  3. Go to “Personal Profile” — the tab or section holding your personal details. The deletion control is here, not under billing or subscription settings.
  4. Scroll down to the “Manage Account Deletion” section — it sits near the bottom of the Personal Profile page, past your profile details. You may need to scroll a while on smaller screens.
  5. Click “Delete Account” and confirm in the dialog that appears. Read the confirmation text fully — it summarizes the subscription cancellation, data deletion and the 30-day recovery window before you commit.

That’s the complete official flow. If the menu labels look slightly different from what’s described here, double-check you’re in the account area — the deletion control sits under Personal Profile, and similar-sounding options elsewhere don’t delete the account.

What the confirmation asks you

The Delete Account confirmation summarizes the consequences before you commit: subscription cancellation, deletion of generations and characters, forfeiture of credits, and the 30-day recovery window. Read it fully — this screen is the last checkpoint, designed to prevent accidental deletion.

You may need to acknowledge the data loss explicitly — for example by checking a box or typing a confirmation — before the final button activates. Don’t rush this screen. After confirming, you’re typically signed out immediately, and the 30-day recovery window starts at confirmation, not at your last login.

Before you confirm: the checklist

  • Download every generation you want to keep — deletion removes them after the recovery window, and there’s no documented bulk export, so save them manually one by one.
  • Note your Soul ID characters — trained characters are deleted; retraining needs 20+ photos from multiple angles and about 3 minutes each.
  • Check your credit balance in the billing section — Starter’s 270, Plus’s 1,200 and Ultra’s 3,000 monthly credits are all forfeited on deletion, not refunded.
  • Consider canceling the subscription instead — canceling stops future billing immediately while keeping every generation, character and setting intact.
  • Make sure you’re deleting the right account — check the email address shown in Personal Profile matches the account you intend to delete, especially if you have more than one.

What happens to your subscription

Deleting your account cancels your subscription automatically — you don’t need to cancel separately first (checked 4 Nov 2026). Billing stops and you won’t be charged again. The official flow has no separate “cancel subscription, then delete” step.

Billing stops at deletion — you won’t be charged for the next cycle. The remaining time in the current paid period is typically not refunded; the official help article doesn’t publish a refund policy for deleted accounts, so assume the current period’s payment is spent. If a refund matters to you, contact support before deleting rather than after.

What happens to credits, generations and Soul ID characters

Deletion removes your remaining credit balance, all saved generations, trained Soul ID characters and account settings. After the recovery window closes, none of it comes back — which is why the checklist above matters more than the deletion steps themselves.

Credit reminder from the official pricing page (checked 4 Nov 2026): Starter includes 270 monthly credits, Plus 1,200, Ultra 3,000 — all refresh monthly with no rollover, and all are forfeited on deletion. The credits-per-video guide explains what those credits buy, in case you’d rather spend the balance down first and delete with an empty account.

The 30-day recovery window

After confirming deletion, you have 30 days to change your mind: sign back in within 30 days and the account — with its data — is restored (checked 4 Nov 2026). After 30 days, deletion is final and the data is gone permanently.

Treat the window as a safety net, not a pause button. It’s a deletion with a grace period — if you want to keep the account dormant, canceling the subscription instead is the cleaner choice.

If you sign back in on day 29, everything comes back — generations, Soul ID characters, settings, and the subscription state as it was at deletion. If you miss day 30, there’s no documented appeal process; the data is gone. On the fence? Set a calendar reminder for day 25 so the decision doesn’t make itself.

Delete vs cancel vs downgrade: which do you actually want?

Most “I want to delete” impulses are really “I want to stop paying.” Compare the three exits before confirming — the differences in what survives are stark.

The table’s bottom row is the decision shortcut: “done entirely” → delete; “pause spending” → cancel; “keep access, pay nothing” → downgrade. Two of the three keep your work.

Pros

  • Official, documented steps — no hunting through menus for the deletion control.
  • Subscription cancels automatically — no separate billing step needed.
  • 30-day recovery window gives a real safety net for second thoughts.
  • No fee or penalty for deleting the account.
  • Data removal is complete after the window — a clean break.

Cons

  • All generations deleted permanently after the 30-day window.
  • Trained Soul ID characters deleted — retraining needs 20+ photos again.
  • Remaining credits forfeited — no refund, no transfer.
  • Account settings and preferences wiped.
  • After 30 days, nothing can be recovered.
  • Returning later means starting from zero.

Who should NOT delete their account

Don’t delete when you just want to stop paying — cancel the subscription or downgrade to Free instead; your generations and Soul ID characters survive. Don’t delete while holding unused credits you paid for — spend them down first or accept the forfeit consciously. Don’t delete in frustration over a bug or a bad generation — fix the issue or contact support first, since deletion won’t resolve anything except your access. And don’t delete the wrong account — double-check the email in Personal Profile before confirming, because the 30-day window is the only undo you get.

Frequently asked questions

How do I delete my Higgsfield account?

Click your avatar → Manage Account → Personal Profile → scroll to “Manage Account Deletion” → Delete Account and confirm. Those are the official steps from Higgsfield’s account help article (checked 4 Nov 2026). The control lives under Personal Profile, not billing settings.

Does deleting cancel my subscription?

Yes — deletion cancels your subscription automatically; no separate cancellation step is needed (checked 4 Nov 2026). Billing stops and you won’t be charged again. The current period’s remaining time is typically not refunded, so time the deletion near your renewal date if that matters.

Can I recover my account after deleting?

Within 30 days, yes: sign back in and the account with its data — generations, Soul ID characters, settings — is restored. After 30 days, deletion is final and nothing can be recovered. There is no documented appeal process past the window.

What happens to my credits when I delete?

Remaining credits are forfeited — they don’t transfer or refund. Monthly credits (Starter 270, Plus 1,200, Ultra 3,000, checked 4 Nov 2026) refresh with no rollover anyway, so deletion simply wipes the balance. Consider spending the balance down before deleting.

Will deleting remove my generated videos and images?

Yes, after the 30-day recovery window closes. Download everything you want to keep before confirming deletion — there is no retrieval afterward, and no bulk export is documented, so save generations manually.

Should I delete or just cancel my subscription?

Cancel (or downgrade to Free) if you might return — it stops billing while keeping your generations, Soul ID characters and settings intact. Delete only when you’re done with Higgsfield entirely and accept the data loss. Two of the three exits in the comparison table keep your work.
