Delete an Organization

Deleting an organization in Samepage is easy and only administrators of that organization have the ability to delete it. If you are a member or guest of an organization and you want to leave that organization please read our help article on leaving an organization.

If there are multiple organizations then you will need to follow the steps for each organization that you wish to delete. In compliance with GDPR deleting an organization will permanently delete all of that data in the system.

If you are on our Pro plan and are thinking about deleting your organization simply to prevent paying for Samepage in the future, there may be a better option. By contacting us, you can downgrade to a free plan and have continued access to all of your pre-existing content. Our Free plan offers many of the same collaborative tools as our Pro plan. Visit our pricing page to learn more.

Please note that if you intend to request a refund of any kind, you'll need to make your request prior to deleting your organization.
