Allow changing the email address on an existing Cursor account

Feature request for product/service

Billing

Describe the request

Cursor accounts are currently tied to a single email, and that email cannot be changed. The documented workaround is to cancel the subscription, wait for the billing period to end, delete the account, and create a new one. That permanently wipes chat history, settings, and indexed codebases.

This is basic account hygiene that most SaaS products already support. People change jobs, companies rebrand, and personal emails get retired. Forcing a full account reset is a high cost for a small identity update.

What I would like:

  • Self-service email change in the dashboard, with verification on both the old and new address
  • Keep subscription, chat history, settings, and usage on the same account
  • If a full merge is too hard, at least let support transfer the account/subscription after verification

This really does feel possible. If it helps: please use Cursor to implement it. Dogfood the product on this one. :wink:

Please! I’m currently dealing with this becoming a problem in the near future. I had created an account using my old university email and now I can’t move it over to anything else?? This was not a problem I thought I would encounter and now you’re telling me to ditch all of my history for my ongoing current projects??? Kinda wild that y’all aren’t trying to solve this at all. I’m about to just bite the bullet and cancel with y’all and use a different service that will actually allow this. You will lose users over this!! I love cursor and want to keep using it so plz fix this!!
