laalithya It's impossible to update the nickname in https://account.microsoft.com/billing/payments/?refd=login.live.com. Please add this feature! So basic. I notice there are many design oversights in Microsoft's software. You may want to hire someone really hire up in charge of this, front-end issues.

I have no trouble editing the nick name within the "edge://settings/payments" clicking the 3 ... dots and choosing edit. I've just tried it and all is good.

- SimpleSamplesSep 03, 2022Copper ContributorWhen I click the ellipses (three dots) next to a card the only option is to manage with my Microsoft account and I see nothing in there to change the nickname.

Same here. Microsoft account has no menu at all for adding a nickname. If this worked in the past, it most certainly no longer does. Or is it the case that you can ONLY enter a nickname at the time of making a transaction. If so, that's weird.

Dennis5mile Is "saved across devices" also set to yes for your card? Saving across devices feature and the nickname feature seem to break eachother.
- Dennis5mileMar 31, 2022Silver ContributorYes, but if you save to your Microsoft account it removes it's listing within Edge. Not sure why, but it does for me.
