What happens to my pending orders?

You lose the ability to track pending orders after account deletion. You cannot access tracking numbers, request refunds, or contact sellers. Resolve all orders before deleting your account.

Will I lose my Wish Cash and credits?

Yes. All Wish Cash, promo codes, coupons, and account credits are immediately forfeited upon deletion with no refund. Spend all credits before deleting your account.

Can I still return items after deleting my account?

No. You cannot initiate returns, exchanges, or refund requests after account deletion. Keep your account active until all potential return windows have closed.

How do I stop Wish marketing emails after deletion?

After deletion, you should stop receiving emails. If emails continue, use the unsubscribe link at the bottom of the emails or contact Wish support to be removed from marketing lists.
