Merging two or more EA Accounts together is called a Persona Transfer.

Persona Transfers can cause damage to all accounts being linked or merged and risk creating more problems due to a number of factors.

"Linking" or "merging" accounts does not mean that all of your content will be in one place. In many cases, all data becomes lost during a transfer.

If you're thinking of requesting a Persona Transfer, we recommend familiarizing yourself with the technical risks first.

A secondary email helps you reset your password if you’re locked out of your EA Account and primary email address.

1. Find the Secondary Email section of your EA Account Security tab. 
2. Click Add Secondary Email. 
3. Enter an email address different from the one registered to your EA Account.
4. Log in to that email address and find the security code email sent from EA.
5. Enter your security code in the EA Account settings verification window.

Once set up, your secondary email will receive the same password reset instructions and confirmations when using Forgot Your Password? as your primary email address.
