# Change your account name and URL

You're not stuck with the name and URL you chose when you first set up your Pathwright account. Need to update? Here's how...

## Change your account name

You can change your account name under "Settings" from the main menu or Dashboard > Account Settings. Simply edit the name, save, and you'll see your changes immediately.

## Change your subdomain (URL)

You don't have to buy a custom domain to change your URL, although you're welcome to do that on the Essentials Plan and above.

To simply change your subdomain, email or message hello@pathwright.com and let us know what you would like your new URL to be.

To set up a custom domain name that does not include ".pathwright.com," see the instructions under [set up a custom domain.](./set-up-a-custom-domain.help.md)
