Changing your email address

Change the email address you sign in with, and choose which of the organisation's emails you receive.

Last updated

Your name, email address, password and two-step verification belong to your Backed account, which you use for every organisation. Which emails you receive from an organisation is set on its My profile page.

Change your email address

  1. Select your name, at the foot of the menu on a computer, or at the top of the page on a phone or tablet, to open My profile.
  2. Select Manage your account.
  3. Open the Email and password tab.
  4. Under Email address, enter the New email address and Confirm your password.
  5. Select Update email. You see Email address changed.

Backed may ask you to confirm the new address: select Send verification code, enter the code from the email and select Verify.

If the organisation signs you in with single sign-on, your email address comes from your organisation account. Ask your organisation's IT team to change it there.
