Can I close myKindo account?

Yes, but first check if the school your student is moving to also has Kindo or ezlunch. If they do, you can use your myKindo account at your new school.

When can I close my account? 

You may close your account at any time. 

What happens to my account balance when I close my account?

  1. You can choose to spend your remaining funds before closing your account.
  2. If you have had a refund in the last 24 months you can choose to withdraw the refund amount.
  3. You may choose to donate the balance (see below). 
To withdraw funds after a refund see our article Account Balance Withdrawals
