When using Midjourney, the most common stumbling block isn’t generating images—it’s “logging into the wrong account” or “the subscription isn’t on this account.” This Midjourney tutorial explains clearly how to link accounts, how to switch accounts, and how to manage multiple accounts with less hassle.
First, confirm where your Midjourney account is actually linked
A Midjourney account is essentially tied to a Discord account, not an account registered separately with an email. Whichever Discord account you use to join the Midjourney server, send commands, or purchase a membership subscription—your resources follow that Discord account.
The fastest way to check is: open midjourney.com and click “Sign in,” then see whether the Discord nickname and avatar shown on the page match the account you subscribed with. If the user info shown by Midjourney doesn’t match, you’ve basically logged into the wrong Discord account.
Switch accounts on the Midjourney website: log out, then authorize again
After logging out via the top-right corner on midjourney.com, click “Sign in” again—you’ll be redirected to the Discord authorization page. Pay special attention here: whichever account is shown in the top-right of the Discord authorization page is the one Midjourney will bind to.
If the authorization page automatically signs into the wrong account, first log out of the current account on discord.com, then go back to midjourney.com and click sign-in again. Switching Midjourney accounts is essentially “re-authorizing with a different Discord account.”
Switch accounts within Discord: desktop and mobile must be handled separately
To switch accounts on Discord desktop, you typically need to log out of the current account and log into another one; after switching, return to the Midjourney server and send commands again. Mobile works similarly, but many people overlook that “the system browser still has the old Discord login session,” causing the Midjourney web version to be pulled back to the old account.
