Completing this process will grant you the benefits of a full VRChat account, such as the ability to gain Trust Ranks and upload content while keeping the simplicity of being able to log in with a single click when running VRChat via the corresponding platform.
Linking an account with Creator Economy purchases
If you've made a purchase through the Creator Economy, linking your platform account (Steam, Meta, Viveport or Pico) into an existing VRChat account is not available at this time. In this case, you'll need to use Create New Account instead.
- Start by logging into the Steam, Meta, Pico or Viveport account you wish to merge.
- Open the Main Menu and navigate to Settings.
- On the Settings page, you can find the Link Account button below Exit VRChat. If the button is not visible to you, you are already logged into a full VRChat account.
- After you click Link Account, you can select whether to use an existing account or create a new one. We recommend to use the Create New Account option if you do not have an existing account to link to.
- Use Existing Account will merge everything from your platform account to the VRChat account you complete the process with.
- Create New Account will upgrade the current account into a VRChat account.
- After selecting the option you want to continue with, follow the instructions shown.
Favorites when linking to an existing account
When linking to an existing VRChat account, if the total number of favorites you have between the accounts exceeds the maximum current limit, you may end up with more favorites than you are allowed to have. If that happens, you'll need to remove enough favorites to make room for new ones.
More details about Account Linking:
- As stated during the process, linking accounts is permanent and cannot be undone.
- When using an existing account a full VRChat account can be linked to one of each platform accounts at the same time.
- You cannot link a platform account into another platform account - instead, you'll need to link them into a full VRChat account.
- When using an existing account for the linking process, your account data may take up to a day to merge. If you have any issues with the process, please contact support at https://vrch.at/support.
