If you cancelled your Tapfiliate subscription and now want it back, you can. Which route you take depends on whether your access has ended yet and whether you ever made a payment. In most cases your programs, affiliates and tracking are still there waiting for you.
In this article we will go over:
Before your access ends: resume your subscription
After you cancel, your account stays available until the end of your current paid period or trial. Until that date you do not need to reopen anything:
Go to Settings > Account > Billing.
Click Resume subscription.
Nothing is charged at that moment. Your subscription continues and the next payment follows your usual billing schedule.
The sections below apply once the account has been closed, which happens the day after your access ends.
What happens to your data
Closing the account does not delete your data: your programs, affiliates, conversions and settings stay as they were, and you can pick up where you left off if you come back. We do not promise how long this data is kept, though: under our Terms of Service, the data of a closed account may be deleted, so export anything you need before your access ends.
💡 Cancelling is not the same as permanent deletion. A cancellation can be reversed; a GDPR "right to be forgotten" deletion cannot. See the FAQ below.
Reopening a closed trial or free account
If your account was closed while you were still on a trial and you never made a payment, reopening is handled by our team. It only takes a moment:
Reach out to our support team via the chatbox in the bottom right of the page, or email support@tapfiliate.com.
Provide the email address associated with the account you want to reopen.
We will renew your trial time and let you know when your first charge would take place.
There is no fee for reopening, and you are not charged at the moment the account is reactivated.
Reopening a closed paid account
If at least one payment was made on the account, our team reopens it for you. A closed account cannot be reopened by logging in:
Reach out to our support team via the chatbox in the bottom right of the page, or email support@tapfiliate.com.
Provide the email address associated with the account you want to reopen.
Once the account is reopened, your subscription continues; if your last paid period has already ended, a new billing period starts that day and is charged. If the card on your account is no longer valid, update your payment method on the Billing page.
If your account was suspended because payments failed, the suspension email has a Reopen account now button: pay the amount due there and your account is reopened right away, without contacting us.
Starting over with the same email address
Sometimes you do not want the old data back – you want a clean slate under the same email address. You can sign up again with the same email address at any time. This creates a new, separate account; the old one stays closed.
If you also want the old account permanently deleted, contact our support team and say so explicitly. A permanent deletion cannot be undone; what it covers is described in the FAQ below.
FAQ
❓Can I just pause my account instead?
There is no separate pause option. To take your whole account offline, cancel the subscription: it stays available until your access ends, then it is closed; your data is not deleted at that point. When you are ready, resume before that date or reopen the account as described above. To stop only one program, archive it instead. If that program pays automatic recurring commissions, read about archiving in FAQ: Account Lifecycle first: archiving permanently stops those commissions for the customers it has already brought in.
❓What is the difference between cancelling and permanent deletion?
A cancellation can be undone, and closing the account does not delete your data. A permanent deletion under GDPR is irreversible: the account owner and team members are anonymised, so the account cannot be reopened afterwards. Your affiliates' accounts are anonymised only if you ask us to, and accounting records (conversions, commissions, invoices) are kept.
❓Will my tracking still work after I reopen?
Your programs and settings are restored as they were, but it is worth re-checking your integration before you tell affiliates you are live again – especially if your website changed while the account was closed. See How to Validate Your Tracking.
❓My account was closed a long time ago. Can it still be reopened?
Contact our support team with the account email address and we will check what is still available for you.
