  I created my first WP site in 2008 – call it “Personal Website” and thus created a profile for it – “Personal User/Admin”.

  At some point, I created “Professional User” and granted myself Admin privileges.

  Since then, I have created a “Professional Website”, and granted myself [Personal User/Admin], Professional Website Admin privileges.

  Each is associated with different email addresses, Personal Email and Professional Email. Part of the reason for this… was a past intent to fully host a site through WP.org <–> but that turned out to be way too complicated for what I could manage.

  I own domain names for both; http://www.hansworldtravels.com and http://www.hanshyde.com, and have paid subscriptions with WP accordingly.

  So my question[s] are;

  1) Can I combine both into one “global” account for billing purposes? If so, how … link appreciated if it already exists.

  2) How to do I make my Professional User/Admin/Email the “primary” global entity within my WP ecosphere?

  I use both Apple & PC platforms, browser UIs & WP Apps/”Desktops” across both platforms, and sadly this carries over into other SM resources too.

  Too complicated? Yes, trust me I know! Hence to a degree and for what it’s worth, why I’m trying to “sort” this small issue.

  I feel like there are some options to do this in Admin/Account Settings… but I’m tentative about changing anything there.

  Thanks for any guidance!

  Hi there,

  Both http://www.hansworldtravels.com/ and http://www.hanshyde.com/ belong to the same account, hansworldtravels which you’re using to post here.

  For your site, hanshyde.com, you have two other admins added to the site, but neither of them own any upgrades related to the site.

  1) Can I combine both into one “global” account for billing purposes? If so, how … link appreciated if it already exists.

  Your billing for both these sites are already under the same account – if you go to the Purchases page at https://wordpress.com/me/purchases/ while logged in as hansworldtravels you’ll see the upgrades for both sites there.

  2) How to do I make my Professional User/Admin/Email the “primary” global entity within my WP ecosphere?

  Can you be more specific? Which username are you speaking of? If you’re speaking of hansworldtravels, this account already owns everything. If you’re speaking of one of the other two admins on hanshyde.com, you can follow these steps to transfer the sites to another username account:
