Thought of a better, cooler name for your world? Let's update the URL!

Paid Worlds

If you'd like to modify the URL of your paid world, simply email us at support@topia.io or send us a message via the live chat on our website. We would be happy to update it for you.

Since this is currently a manual process, we ask for 2-3 business days to complete these requests.

Free Worlds

If you have a free world, you can simply create a new world. To make it look the same as your current world, create a scene and then apply the scene to the new world.
