Where Is My BIGO Live ID?
It takes about a minute to find — and it is the one detail every diamond recharge needs.
Finding the ID on your profile
Open the Me tab
Sign in to BIGO Live and tap Me at the bottom of the screen.
Look below your nickname
Find the line that starts with ID: — that value is your BIGO ID, not the name above it.
Copy and keep it
Tap the ID to copy it. Paste it into your notes if you recharge often.
Your ID and your nickname are not the same thing
Your nickname is the name people see in live rooms, and you can change it whenever you like. Your BIGO ID is the identifier attached to the account itself — it is what search, friend requests and diamond recharges use to find you.
When the ID matters
- Recharging diamonds through a store like this one — see the BIGO diamond recharge packs
- Letting a friend add you through ID search
- Asking BIGO or a seller's support team to look into your account
Check it twice before paying
A recharge is credited to exactly the ID you type. Diamonds sent to someone else's ID cannot be moved back, so compare the ID on your profile with the one at checkout before you pay.
BIGO ID Questions
I signed up with my phone number — is that my ID?
No. BIGO creates a separate ID when you register, whichever sign-up method you used. Your phone number is not your BIGO ID.
Does my BIGO ID ever change by itself?
No. It only changes if you use the custom ID option yourself — see how to change your BIGO ID. Your nickname, on the other hand, can change any time.
There is no Me tab in my app.
Update BIGO Live to the latest version first. Menu names and positions can differ a little between app versions and regions.
