Change a billing name or address

  3. Click Manage account.
  4. Click Billing in the left sidebar.
  5. Click Edit next to your most recent invoice and update your information.

If you’re unable to change your billing name or address by following these steps, check which Dropbox plan you have. The steps required may be different if you’re not on a Professional or Essentials plan.

Note: This only applies to teams paying by credit card, PayPal, or direct debit. If you pay by manual invoicing, you can only update billing information in the admin console if you’re purchasing additional licenses.

What if no one is listed as an administrator for my Dropbox Standard, Business, Advanced, or Business Plus account?

If the original admin for your Dropbox plan has left the business or is no longer involved, their email address may have been deleted. However, they will still be listed as the team admin for your Dropbox plan.

Try recreating this email account so you can access that inbox. Once you have access, reset the Dropbox password for that account, log in, and set up an existing member of your business as the new team admin. We recommend setting up two admins in case of this scenario in the future.

Dropbox Enterprise and Education

To update billing information for a Dropbox Enterprise or Education account, contact your account executive or Dropbox Support.
