Wrapping Up: Change DevianArt Account Details
Apart from changing the username, changing the email address or password doesn’t need a Core member subscription. Also, you don’t need to maintain the subscription every month once you have changed the username. If you want to purchase the subscription to change only the username, I recommend choosing the basic Core membership.
