How to change your username in PayPal

PayPal is one of the most used platforms worldwide to receive, send and buy products with the best integrated security options for this. At the time of creating our account, it is required to register the username which PayPal sometimes configures based on the name of the person and for some reason we want to modify this data, for this PayPal offers us different alternatives that we will see through this tutorial..

 

If at any time you need to modify the data of your Paypal account, it is possible that among them you need to change the username and that is why we will see how to do it. Remember that later when making payments such as online purchases, you need associated billing information for it.
