Seasonal restaurants

7shifts doesn't offer seasonal holds. If your whole business closes for the season, you can cancel your 7shifts account. If only some Locations close, you can deactivate them. Either way, you can reactivate when you reopen.

Cancel your account for a seasonal closure

7shifts doesn't offer seasonal holds for entire accounts. When your business closes for the season, you can cancel your account, which stops all operations and billing for every Location at the end of your current paid period. Only an Admin can cancel the account.

You can reactivate the account when you're ready to reopen. 7shifts stores your account data for 2 years, so your account will be just how you left it when you reactivate.

Cancel the account

1. Log in to your 7shifts account as an Admin.
2. Open the Billing page.
3. Click Cancel Account.
4. Select We're a seasonal business as your reason.
5. Follow the prompts to confirm the cancellation.

Reactivate a cancelled account

1. Log in to 7shifts as an Admin. The Billing page opens.
2. Re-enter your payment details to reactivate the account.
