FAQ: Changing Your Email on Deriv
Can I change my Deriv email address myself in Account Settings? Generally, no. Email changes are treated as security-sensitive and usually need to go through Deriv support rather than a self-service option.
Do I need to verify my new email address? Yes, Deriv typically sends a confirmation link to the new email address before the change is finalized.
Will changing my email affect my MT5 login? No, your MT5 login details are separate from your Deriv account email, so an email change won’t affect MT5 access.
How long does it take Deriv to process an email change? This depends on identity verification and support response times, but it’s generally handled within a short period once your identity is confirmed.
