Transfer ownership of a project

You can hand a project you own to another member of it. They become the owner and the billing owner: from then on, the project's features and limits come from their plan, and its photos count against their storage. Nothing changes until they accept.

Offer the project#

1. Open the project and choose the Members tab.
2. Find the person in the list. They need to be a member of the project already. If they aren't, invite them first. See Team and roles.
3. Select the More button (three dots) beside their name, then Make owner.
4. Read what changes, then select Offer the project to followed by their name.

They're told about the offer. Until they answer, your project pages say you're waiting for them. Select Cancel offer to withdraw it.

Only one offer can be open at a time. If the person leaves the project or is removed, the offer is cancelled.

Accept or decline an offer made to you#

1. Open the project, or your dashboard. A banner says the owner is offering you the project.
2. Select Review and accept.
3. The Accept ownership page shows what changes under your plan: features your plan doesn't include, collaborator seats, and whether it takes you to your plan's project limit.
4. Select Accept and become owner, or Decline.

What changes when it's accepted#

• The new owner owns the project and its billing.
• The previous owner stays on the project as an Admin.
• Nothing is deleted. If the new owner's plan includes less, everything already there stays, but adding more over their limits is blocked until they upgrade.
• If the project takes the new owner over their plan's project limit, a project may become read-only. They can choose which stays active in their Settings, under Billing. See Plans and billing.

An owner can't leave a project. To leave a project you own, transfer it first.
