How to protect your Fiverr balance while you are alive

There is no way to name a beneficiary or successor on a Fiverr account. Fiverr International allows no lifetime transfer of balance; the account holder can only redeem them.

Fiverr International decides requests about Fiverr balance after a death case by case, so nothing in its terms promises a survivor anything; what the account holder sets up in advance is what holds. There is no way to name a beneficiary or successor on a Fiverr account. Fiverr International allows no lifetime transfer of balance; the account holder can only redeem them.

How to protect your Fiverr balance

1
Record the email address on your Fiverr account and the payout method linked to it (PayPal, Payoneer or the legacy Fiverr Revenue Card) where your executor can find them. Without the linked payout provider, recovering earnings is far harder.
2
Withdraw your available earnings regularly rather than letting them accumulate, so less is left in the account if something happens to you.
3
Tell anyone who depends on your Fiverr income that your freelancer level, reputation, reviews and active gigs cannot be inherited or transferred, so they plan around the money, not the business.
4
List any in-progress orders and recurring clients so your executor can ask Fiverr Customer Support to cancel or refund open orders and avoid disputes.
5
Download your invoices and activity reports periodically from the billing history and Earnings pages. Fiverr cannot edit or reissue invoices once an account is deleted.
6
Leave instructions to withdraw the earnings before the account is closed: an account with a Fiverr balance or earned revenues cannot be deactivated or deleted, and an account deactivated for 12 months is deleted.

Naming who acts after a death

Designation

There is no way to name a beneficiary or successor on a Fiverr account; the account is personal to the freelancer and is not transferable.1

What Fiverr International Ltd.'s terms say about sharing and transfers5

Pooling with family

Fiverr has no family-sharing or pooling feature.1

Transferring the account or registration

The Community Standards prohibit offers to sell or buy Fiverr accounts, and prohibit creating a Fiverr profile with personal information or credentials for anyone other than yourself.1

Workspace roles and admin access

In a Fiverr Team Account the admin cannot transfer admin rights to a member, and if the admin leaves, the entire team is deactivated and all members lose access.2

Expiry and activity requirements

Fiverr Credits are promotional credits that expire three months after receipt and cannot be withdrawn or transferred.3

Exporting and backing up data

Invoices on the billing history page can be filtered and downloaded individually, or as a CSV report or a zip of PDF files.4

The Earnings page can email an activity report covering all account transactions.5

Should you save your passwords for your family?

Some people store account passwords so a family member can sign in later. The practice has three practical limits:

  • Two-factor authentication often blocks it. Most accounts require a second factor — a code sent to a phone, an authenticator app, a passkey, or a physical key. A saved password alone frequently does not grant access, and the recovery codes that would are easy to lose or let go stale.
  • It usually conflicts with the platform's terms. Most operators prohibit account sharing and signing in as another person, including after a death. Stored credentials are not the operator's recognized access path, and using them can violate the terms of service.
  • Operators provide other paths. Where an operator offers a designation tool — Apple's Legacy Contact, Google's Inactive Account Manager, a beneficiary designation — that mechanism grants access the operator recognizes. A password manager's own emergency-access or legacy feature passes credentials through a controlled process. Digital assets named in a will or trust give a fiduciary authority under each state's Revised Uniform Fiduciary Access to Digital Assets Act (RUFADAA).
