How to Delete Your Kimi Account (Permanently)

How to delete your Kimi account

1. Kimi is free; there is no paid tier to cancel.
2. In the Kimi app/web (kimi.com): profile > Settings > "Delete account" / account option.
3. If the UI is in Chinese, look for (Settings) > (Account) > (delete/deactivate).
4. Or email their support to request deletion.

In the Kimi app: (Me) > > > .

Before you delete

• The app UI is primarily Chinese — the deletion path is under account security settings.
• Phone-number signups must delete via the in-app path.
• Export any chats before deleting.

What happens after you delete

Deletion removes your conversation history and account data permanently.

Deleting removes your account; it does not get you a refund for the current billing period. If you are leaving because of the price, there is a cheaper way to keep the same capability.

Leaving because of the price?

If Kimi was costing you a standalone subscription, Krater gives you 500+ AI models in one workspace for a single $20/month Pro plan. One subscription replaces several single-model subs. Compare plans on our Kimi pricing breakdown or see every model we support.

FAQ

Can I recover my Kimi account after deleting it?

No. Deletion is permanent on Kimi. A few products (X, Microsoft) hold the account in a deactivated state for about 30 days first, but once the window closes it cannot be restored.

Do I get a refund when I delete my account?

Deleting the account does not trigger a refund. Cancel the subscription first and check Kimi's refund policy — most AI products do not refund unused time.

Is deleting the same as cancelling?

No. Cancelling stops future billing but keeps your account and history. Deleting removes the account entirely. Most people should cancel first, keep using the free tier until the period ends, then delete.
