Because Vinted, UAB reviews transfer requests on a case-by-case basis, there is no guarantee that wallet will be transferred after death. Lifetime planning reduces dependence on that outcome.

How to protect your Vinted wallet

5 lifetime planning steps for your Vinted wallet:

1
Record the Vinted account username and the email address on the account where your executor can find them, since Vinted has no documented estate or beneficiary process and the account cannot be transferred to another person.
2
Keep the Vinted Wallet balance low by withdrawing earnings to your bank account regularly. The Wallet is earnings-only and cannot be topped up, so a smaller standing balance means less money stranded if the account becomes hard to access.
3
Note the bank account where withdrawals are sent and the account and routing number on file, so your executor can both reach the Vinted Wallet and trace funds that have already been withdrawn.
4
Tell your executor that the US Vinted Wallet is held with Adyen N.V. (a licensed bank in the Netherlands) and that withdrawing funds usually requires completing an identity check, so they know a verification step may be involved.
5
Decide what should happen to active listings and complete or close any open orders. Vinted directs members to finish ongoing orders and withdraw all funds before an account is deactivated.

Family sharing

Vinted does not offer family sharing, pooling, or co-ownership of a member account, and its User Terms prohibit transferring account rights and obligations to another person. The only routine way to move money out of the Vinted Wallet is the seller's own withdrawal — a transfer to a bank account the seller controls — or spending the balance on Vinted purchases. The Wallet is earnings-only and cannot be topped up, so it holds only money from completed sales.

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).

An inventory listing the Vinted account lets a fiduciary identify it and act on it through the operator's official channels.
