Change Origin ID - does it work?
The gaming platform Origin assigns a unique ID to every gamer. You can change this at any time. We show you how to do this.
Origin: Change user name (Origin ID)
Your user name is ultimately hidden behind the Origin ID. This will help other players find your Origin profile. You can easily change the user name in the browser:
- Open the EA homepage and log into your account.
- To do this, select [Log in] in the top right corner. A small window opens. Enter your email address and the associated password there.
- Then click on your profile picture at the top right and select "Account Settings".
- In the "About me" tab, click on the [Edit] button next to "General information".
- For security reasons, EA will send you a six-digit code to your email address. Enter this to continue.
- Now change your ID to the desired user name and click on "Save".
- Note: If the desired account name has already been assigned, you will receive an error message. In this case, choose a different Origin ID.
