# Handles, Profiles & Aliases

> The difference between a Moove Handle, a Moove Profile and a decentralised naming alias — and which one people actually pay.

Three words that sound alike and mean different things. Here is which is which.

<Info>
  **Web and Moove App.** Handles and Profiles work identically on both.

## The Short Version

|                   | What it is                                          | Who has one                                      |
| ----------------- | --------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
| **Moove Handle**  | Your `@name` — the identifier                       | Every Moove account                              |
| **Moove Profile** | The page that handle opens                          | Every Moove account                              |
| **Alias**         | A name from a naming service, mapped to your handle | Anyone with an ENS or SNS name — **coming soon** |

## Moove Handle: The Identifier

Your handle is `@yourname`. It replaces a wallet address everywhere on moove.xyz: people send to it, search for it and pay it.

* 3 to 63 characters.
* Lowercase letters, numbers and underscores only.
* Unique across moove.xyz, claimed first-come.

One handle can sit in front of several wallets across several chains. The person paying you never needs to know which one — moove.xyz resolves the handle to your default wallet and its [settlement token](/concepts/settlement-and-auto-routing).

## Moove Profile: The Page

Your handle opens a page at `moove.xyz/@yourname`. That page is your **Moove Profile**: your username, bio, links, profile image, background, and a control the payer uses to pay you.

The important detail is that **the payer sets the amount**. A Moove Profile is not an invoice — it is an open door. Someone can pay you \$5 or \$500 from the same page.

When you need a fixed amount, that is a payment link.

## Aliases: Coming Soon

An **alias** is a name you own on a decentralised naming service — `yourname.eth` on Ethereum Name Service, `yourname.sol` on Solana Name Service — mapped onto your Moove account so people can pay you at either name.

<Warning>
  Alias resolution is **not live**. Nothing on moove.xyz resolves an ENS or SNS name today. Do not give out an alias expecting a payment to reach you.
</Warning>

## What Can People Pay Today?

Right now, a payment can be addressed three ways:

<Steps>
  <Step title="A Moove Handle">
    `@yourname`. The one to give out.
  </Step>

  <Step title="A wallet address">
    The full on-chain address. Works, but nobody can remember it.
  </Step>

  <Step title="A payment link">
    A URL for a specific amount, created by you. Best for invoices and checkouts.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Can I Change My Moove Handle?

You can change your handle under **Your handle** — **Settings → Your account** in the Moove App, or **Settings → Edit Moove Profile → Edit profile** on the web. Two things to know first:

<Warning>
  * Your old handle is released and someone else can claim it.
  * Any link, invoice or bio pointing at the old handle stops resolving to you.

  Change it before you have published it widely, not after.
</Warning>

You can change your handle once every 7 days, and your username once every 7 days. Your bio and images can change at any time — none of these beyond the handle are identifiers.
