You sign in to the client area with the e-mail address of your login. You change it on the page Your profile. You need your current password for this.

Video: Change the e-mail address you sign in with

Watch the video (49 s, with narration) – or follow the steps below.

Good to know: your login and your client account each have an e-mail address. This article changes the address you sign in with. The address that receives invoices and other account e-mails is in your account details – see Change your details and billing address. Often both are the same, so you may want to change both.

Step by step

  1. Sign in to the client area and click your initials and name at the top right. In the menu, click your name at the top (with the link Your profile).

    The open account menu with the name and the link Your profile at the top
  2. Under Change Email Address:

    1. Replace the address in Email Address with your new address.
    2. Type your current password in Existing Password.
    3. Click Change Email Address.
    The Your profile page with the Change Email Address section filled in Close-up of the new e-mail address, the Existing Password field and the Change Email Address button
  3. From now on, you sign in with the new address. We also send a confirmation link to it: open the e-mail and click the link to confirm that the address is yours.

The Personal Information section on the same page holds the first and last name of your login. Change them there and click Save Changes in that section.

Something not working?

  • The change is refused: check the password in Existing Password. It is your client area password, not your cPanel or mailbox password.
  • The address is already in use: another login already uses that address. Choose another address or open a ticket.
  • No confirmation e-mail: look in the spam or junk folder of the new address. See Verify your e-mail address.
