  Hi,

  My girlfriend is a photographer starting her business. Her birthday is coming soon and I’d like to make her a surprise by buying the domain she wants AND starting the website for her.
  My only concern is that I want this to be a surprise so I can’t use her email address. Can I change the address managing the accounts later or shall I create her a second email address?
  I knows this question is not about WordPress itself but it’s important to me.

  Thank you in advance for your help.

  Matt

  Hello Matt,

  This is the best thing I have read today :) Such a thoughtful gift.

  Yes, you can change the account email address even after purchase.

  You can change your account email address from here:
  https://wordpress.com/settings/account/

  Please note that the change will not reflect immediately. You need to keep an eye for the validation email sent to the new email address. Make sure to click the link in the validation email to confirm the email address change.

  If you run into any issues, you can check out this guide below:

  Change Your Email Address

  Please feel free to compare the prices and features of the upgrade plans carefully, before making the purchase.

  I hope this was of help. All the best and advance birthday wishes to your lady.
