Transfer of balance after death is not guaranteed under Fiverr International Ltd.'s terms. Lifetime planning offers a more reliable way to manage and share balance while the account is active.
How to protect your Fiverr balance
5 lifetime planning steps for your Fiverr balance:
Family sharing
Fiverr has no family-sharing or pooling feature, and the account is personal and non-transferable. Fiverr Team Accounts let an organization add members, but admin rights cannot be transferred to a member, and if the admin leaves, the team is deactivated and members lose access — so a Team Account is not a path to inherit a seller's individual standing. The only way to realize an earnings balance is to withdraw the cleared, available funds to a linked payout method.
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).
Frequently asked questions
Record the email on your Fiverr account and the payout method linked to it (PayPal, Payoneer, bank, or Fiverr Revenue Card) where your executor can find them, and withdraw your available balance regularly so little is left stranded. Note that your seller level, reviews, and active gigs cannot be inherited — only the cash balance can be recovered. Leave instructions to withdraw the balance before closing the account, since an account holding earned revenues cannot be deactivated until the funds are withdrawn or refunded.
Recording that a Fiverr account exists, alongside other accounts, gives a fiduciary the information needed to reach the operator through its official process.
Fiverr does not support beneficiary designations. Unlike financial accounts, there is no way to name a beneficiary on this type of account.
