Fully upgraded Maya users can now create their own usernames for money transfers instead of using a QR code or giving their mobile number.
How to create your Maya username
Here’s how to claim your Maya username via app:



- Tap the ”Profile” icon on the upper left corner of your Maya app and hit “Get Started”
- Key in your preferred @username and hit confirm.
- Enter the OTP, and you’re done!
Just a few reminders:
- Your username should be 3-24 characters in length, and can include a period, underscore, and numbers
- Avoid using profanities, abusive words, hate speech, or discriminatory language
- Usernames are permanent and cannot be changed.
Start flexing your @username and enjoy seamless and fun transactions with Maya. For more details on how to create your personal username visit maya’s website.
