Transfer ownership

Every business has a single owner. This transfer is the only way to change it.

Who can: only the owner, to someone who is already part of the business.

Send the proposal

1. For security, you must have signed in less than 15 minutes ago. If not, sign out and sign in again.
2. In Team, tap Transfer ownership in the person's row.
3. Confirm with Send the proposal.

We email them a link to accept, which lasts 72 hours. Team shows Pending ownership transfer, with the date it expires.

There's only one proposal at a time: if you send another, it cancels the previous one. To cancel it, tap Cancel the proposal.

Accept it

1. The person opens the link in the email and signs in with that email.
2. They see who is offering them the business and until when the offer lasts.
3. They tap Accept.

From then on they own the business, with every permission, and the previous owner stays on as an admin. If they don't want to accept, they don't have to do anything: the proposal expires on its own.
