Transferring Ownership
Hand over org ownership to another team member.
Ownership of an organisation can be transferred to an existing Admin. Only the current Owner can initiate this process.
Before you start
The person you want to transfer ownership to must already be an Admin of your organisation. If they're not yet a member, invite them first, wait for them to accept, and give them the Admin role before proceeding.
How to transfer ownership
- Go to Settings → Danger Zone.
- Click Transfer Ownership.
- Choose the admin who will become the new owner, confirm the organisation name and their email, and verify with the code sent to you.
- Stagebound emails them to accept the transfer.
The selected member will receive an email asking them to accept the transfer. The transfer does not happen automatically — they must actively confirm it.
What happens after the transfer
Once the recipient accepts:
- They become the new Owner of the organisation
- You are automatically reassigned the Admin role
- Both of you receive a confirmation email
If they do not accept within 3 days, the transfer request expires and no change is made. You remain the Owner throughout this period. You can start the process again at any time.
Why transfers require acceptance
Ownership comes with responsibility for billing, data, and the long-term management of the workspace. Requiring the recipient to actively accept means the transfer cannot happen without their knowledge and agreement.
If you need to transfer ownership urgently and the recipient is not responding, contact Stagebound support.
