Transferring business ownership to a teammate

For employers

Selling the business, stepping back, or just moving the account to the right person? Ownership can move without losing anything, jobs, applicants, history, and your team all stay exactly where they're.

How it works

An owner starts the transfer from My business → Team access → Transfer ownership. For security it's a two-key process:

  1. We email you a confirmation code first. That way nobody who wanders onto your logged-in screen can move ownership without your inbox too.
  2. The other person has to accept. The transfer only takes effect once they say yes on their end. Until they do, nothing changes.
Only an active team member can receive ownership, add them to your team first if they aren't already.

After the transfer

Once accepted, they become the owner (billing, plan, and cancellation rights move with them), and you stay on as a manager, keeping full hiring access unless they remove you. If billing questions come up before or after, see how billing works.
