The iron rule of quitting a point site: "use up your points first"

You want to tidy up point sites you no longer use — but quitting forfeits your points in principle. Amounts in an in-process exchange and rewards from offers awaiting judgment can also be voided, so preparation before quitting matters most. This guide organizes the steps to quit safely without a loss, plus what to confirm beforehand. It also covers the risks of leaving an account idle and the option of going "dormant" instead of quitting. Read it alongside the safety guide and the expiry-prevention guide.

⚠️

The most common quitting mistake is "withdrawing with points still in the account, losing them all." Amounts awaiting judgment or in an in-process exchange can also be voided. Don't rush — quit only after confirming a zero balance and zero pending requests. Also, simply not using a site without quitting — going "dormant" — is often fine, so if you might return, you don't have to force a withdrawal.

Cautions

  • Quitting = forfeiting points, in principle: clear your balance, pending judgments, and in-process exchanges first. Expiry-prevention guide.
  • Perks may not revive on re-registration: the same person re-registering is sometimes excluded from new-user perks.
  • Confirm personal-data deletion: check post-withdrawal data handling in the terms and privacy policy. Safety guide.
  • Idle accounts risk expiry and hijacking: if unused, quit or strengthen the password. Avoid leaving it idle long-term.

FAQ

What happens to points when I quit?
In principle they're all forfeited. Amounts in an in-process exchange or awaiting judgment can also be voided. Be sure to zero your balance and confirm exchanges arrived before quitting.
Should I quit sites I don't use?
Leaving them idle risks point expiry or hijacking. Either quit, or if keeping them for now, strengthen the password. If you might return, keeping them "dormant" is also an option.
What about points below the minimum exchange?
They vanish if you quit as-is. Use an exchange relay to pool them past the minimum, move to cash or other points, then quit.
