# Wallet types

> Personal, Professional, Organization and Project wallets compared.

Loosh has four types of wallets. You can hold as many as you need — one per job, one per cause — and each has its own balance, its own public card and its own QR code. Money never mixes between them.

Several of them carry your own name, so the type chip and the workplace or service name on each one are what tell them apart at a glance.

## What every wallet has

* A **public card** at its own short link, and a **QR code** to go with it
* **Top up** by card, **send**, and receive
* [Cash tokens](/docs/features/cash-tokens) and [pledges](/docs/features/pledges)
* A printable tip card
* Reviews, and referrals you can share

## Two things that surprise people

**Wallet names cannot be changed after creation.** Neither can the short link. Pick carefully. Your personal wallet and any workplace wallet follow your profile name automatically, so change those under **Account → Profile**. Every other wallet keeps the name it was created with.

**Deactivating a wallet is one-way from the app.** It stops receiving and disappears from discovery, but your balance stays yours and you can still withdraw it.
