# Update owner

`PUT /owners/{ownerId}`

> **Important:** You can't update the details of an owner of a processing account.  

Use this method to update the details of an owner associated with a funding recipient.  

To update an owner, you need their ownerId. Our gateway returned the ownerId in the response of the [Create Funding Recipient](https://docs.payroc.com/api/schema/funding/funding-recipients/create) method and the [Create Funding Recipient Owner](https://docs.payroc.com/api/schema/funding/funding-recipients/create-owner) method.   

**Note:** If you don't have the ownerId, use the [List Funding Recipient Owners](https://docs.payroc.com/api/schema/funding/funding-recipients/list-owners) method, the [Retrieve Funding Recipient](https://docs.payroc.com/api/schema/funding/funding-recipients/retrieve) method, or the [List Funding Recipients](https://docs.payroc.com/api/schema/funding/funding-recipients/list) method to search for the funding recipient owner.  

You can update the following details about an owner:  

- Personal details, including their name, date of birth, and address.  
- Identification details, including their identification type and number.  
- Contact details, including their email address.  
- Relationship to the business, including whether they are a control prong.
