    Remove the old card from Edge’s payment settings—not Microsoft-account billing—because Edge keeps payment information in its browser profile and may synchronize it separately.

    Remove the card from Edge

    1. Open Microsoft Edge.
    2. Enter this address in the address bar:
         edge://settings/payments
      
    3. Under the saved payment methods, find the old card.
    4. Select its More actions (…) menu, then select Delete or Remove.
    5. Close and reopen Edge. The card should no longer appear as an autofill suggestion.

    Edge payment information can be stored locally in the browser profile or synchronized through the Microsoft account used to sign in to Edge. Deleting the card from Microsoft-account billing therefore does not necessarily delete Edge’s autofill copy.^1^

    Make sure this is done in the Edge profile where the card appears: select the profile icon in the upper-right corner and check the signed-in account.

    If the card cannot be removed individually

    Clear Edge’s saved card and form-fill data:

    1. Go to Settings and more (…) → Settings → Privacy, search, and services.
    2. Under Clear browsing data, select Choose what to clear.
    3. Set Time range to All time.
    4. Select Autofill form data (includes forms and cards).
    5. Leave Passwords unchecked unless those should also be deleted.
    6. Select Clear now.

    Note: This removes all saved autofill form information in the selected scope, not only the unwanted card.^2^

    If Edge sync is enabled, autofill data can be synchronized across Edge installations using the same credentials. Keep sync enabled when clearing if the card should be removed from all synchronized devices; turn sync off first only if the deletion should apply to the current device.^1^
