How to close your Chess.com account

To close your account, follow the steps below.
Web
Click on 'Settings' from the menu at the bottom left corner of any page on Chess.com
Select 'Membership / Payment' near the bottom of the settings menu
On your membership management page, click on 'Manage Account' at the top right corner
Enter your password and a captcha under 'Confirm your Identity'
This will show you the option 'Close My Account.' Click on it if you are certain you want to close your account.
Mobile
Tap 'More' in the bottom right of your home screen, then tap 'Settings'
Tap on 'Account' from the settings menu
On your account page, tap on the small text that says 'Tap Here.'
