We understand how difficult it can be to handle practical matters during a time of loss. If you're contacting us regarding the Zanda account of a deceased loved one, we’re here to support you and make the process as smooth and respectful as possible.

What You Can Request
If you're responsible for managing the affairs of someone who held a Zanda account, you have two options:
-
Close the account permanently
-
Store the account securely at no cost for 7 years, in case access is needed later for legal, financial, or administrative reasons
There are no fees for either option when the account owner is deceased.
What We Need From You
To proceed, we kindly ask for documentation confirming your authority to act on behalf of the deceased:
If a Practice Will Exists:
Please provide:
-
A copy of the Will (showing you are the executor)
-
A copy of the death certificate
-
A government-issued photo ID of the executor
If No Practice Will Exists:
You’ll need to provide one of the following:
-
Letters of Administration
This is a legal document issued by a court, authorizing someone to manage the deceased's affairs. This is the preferred form of proof. -
If Letters of Administration are not available
A next of kin (spouse, child, or parent) may be able to act on the deceased’s behalf, depending on local laws and internal policies. We’ll need:-
A government-issued photo ID
-
Proof of relationship (e.g. marriage certificate, birth certificate)
-
In all cases, Zanda Privacy Officer will review the documentation to ensure that you’re legally authorized to manage the account.

What Happens Next
