This is a deliberate fraud-prevention safeguard: PayPal email changes are a common vector publishers have used to redirect someone else's payouts, so support intentionally has no manual override path, even for legitimate requests.</p><p class="no-margin">This means if you've lost access to your old PayPal account, or hit your twice-a-year limit, there is no faster path — the self-service change (or the annual reset) is the only way the email updates.</p><h1 id="h_ff1db494e7"><b>💸 What Happens to Pending Payouts</b></h1><p class="no-margin">Payouts already queued to your old PayPal email remain tied to that email until you update it yourself through the self-service flow above. Once you update your PayPal email in the dashboard, new payouts route to the new address — support cannot manually redirect a specific pending payout to a different email.</p><h1 id="h_0457514426"><b>💬 Still Need Help?</b></h1><p class="no-margin">If you're not seeing the option to update your PayPal email, or you have questions about your account status, please reach out to our team.
