Setting your public username and what it's used for.
After you first sign in, HOLO asks you to choose a username. You can't skip this step — the username identifies you across the platform.
Where your username appears
-
On your public profile page
-
Next to your Marketplace listings
-
In the live activity feed when you pull a notable card
-
On shared pack-opening replays
Your real name is never shown publicly. Even after identity verification, the legal name you submit is used only for tax documents and payouts — other collectors only ever see your username.
Rules
-
Must be unique across HOLO
-
Once other people can see it, changing it breaks any links pointing at your profile
Choosing well
Pick something you're happy being known by. Because your username appears on your listings, other collectors will come to recognise it — a username you regret is harder to shed than it looks.
Changing it later
Username changes are handled by support rather than self-service, to prevent people from rapidly cycling usernames to escape a bad selling reputation. Contact us if you need one changed.
