Can you change your Square Enix ID?

Answered by Robert Dupre

Unfortunately, once you have created your SQUARE ENIX account, you cannot update your SQUARE ENIX ID. This means that the ID you choose during the account creation process will be permanent and cannot be changed. It is important to choose your ID carefully, as it will be the unique identifier associated with your SQUARE ENIX account.

I understand that it can be frustrating if you realize later on that you would prefer a different ID. However, SQUARE ENIX has set this policy to ensure the security and integrity of user accounts. By not allowing ID changes, it helps prevent unauthorized access and potential account hijacking.

In addition to the SQUARE ENIX ID, there are also other pieces of information that cannot be updated once the account is created. These include your first name, last name, date of birth, and country/region. It is crucial to provide accurate and up-to-date information during the account creation process.

If you are unable to log into the SQUARE ENIX Account Management System, it is important to confirm that you are using the correct SQUARE ENIX ID. Double-check the spelling and ensure that the ID is entered correctly. If you are unsure about your ID, you may need to retrieve it through the account recovery process.

If you have forgotten your password, you can reset it by following the password recovery process. This usually involves providing your SQUARE ENIX ID and verifying some account information. Once the password reset is completed, you should be able to log into the Account Management System and access your SQUARE ENIX account.

I understand that this policy may not be ideal for everyone, as circumstances can change over time. However, it is important to remember that SQUARE ENIX has implemented these measures to protect the security of user accounts and prevent unauthorized access. It is always a good practice to choose an ID that you will be comfortable using for the long term.

I hope this information clarifies the issue regarding changing your SQUARE ENIX ID. If you have any further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to SQUARE ENIX customer support for assistance.
