Transferring a Premium Site to Another Wix Account
You can transfer ownership of a premium site to another Wix account. When transferring, you can also transfer the site's domain and any associated Google Workspace business email.
Transferring a premium site to another Wix account
To transfer a premium site, you need the email address of the person you want to transfer the site to. After you start the transfer process, they'll receive a confirmation email which they need to accept to complete the process.
Before you begin:
Once you transfer the site, the site ownership is transferred to the new owner. Your payment information is not transferred, and the new site owner will manage all future subscription payments. If you want to continue to manage subscription payments you can add someone as a collaborator instead of transferring ownership. Learn more about roles and permissions.
Some premium subscriptions cannot be transferred. If your subscription can't be transferred, you can unassign the subscription first and then follow the steps to transfer the site.
Closing your Wix account? Transferring your premium site removes its subscription from your account. Once auto-renew is off on your remaining subscriptions, you can close your account.
To transfer a premium site:
Go to your site's dashboard.
Click the Site Actions icon

at the top of the Home page.
Select Transfer site.

Fill out the Transfer Ownership form:
Enter the email address associated with the new owner's Wix account.
Choose a description of your relationship with your transferee.
Enable or disable the following transfer options:
Transfer site plan: Transfer the premium plan assigned to the site, along with the site, to the new owner's account.
Transfer domain & business email: Move the domain and its associated mailboxes, along with the site, to the new owner's account.
Note: "and business email" appears only if you purchased a Google Workspace business email from Wix.
Transfer premium apps: (If applicable) The site's premium apps automatically transfer, along with the site, to the new owner's account.
Select or deselect the Keep my role as Co-Owner of this site after the transfer checkbox:
Selected: You remain a collaborator on the site with limited access. The new site owner can revoke your access at any time.
Deselected: You are no longer able to edit or manage the site in any way.
Select or deselect the Create a copy of this site and keep it in my account checkbox:
Selected: A copy of the site remains in your account after the transfer takes place.
Deselected: A copy of the site is not saved in your account. However, if you keep your role as Co-Owner (see step 4c) you can still edit the site.

Click Continue.
Review the transfer summary.
Select the confirmation checkbox.
Click Transfer Ownership.
What's next?
The new owner receives an invite email which they'll need to accept to complete the transfer. The invite expires in 3 days. Learn more about accepting transferred site ownership.
You can go to Roles and Permissions in your Wix account to track and manage your transfers.

Do Wix Email Marketing campaigns transfer to the new account?
Email campaigns transfer to the new account and also remain in the old account.
Note: Statistics are not transferred when transferring the site. If you have already transferred, the statistics will not be available anymore when you transfer back to the original account.
What happens if I have Wix Stores connected to my site?
If you are using Wix Stores, all products, categories, and settings are transferred to the new account.
Note: If you use Avalara to calculate tax, your Avalara account will remain connected to your site. The new site owner will be able to sign in to the Avalara account using the same username and password as before.
After transferring my site, is my blog affected?
After you transfer a site, editing existing blog posts will not be possible. You can, however, edit new posts. You will also still be able to turn commenting on and off for existing posts, feature existing posts, and delete posts created before the transfer.
Note: Though blog posts will appear on your live site, they will not appear in the Post Manager.
What happens to my site contacts when I transfer my site to a new account?
All site contacts are transferred to the new account and are removed from the old account.
Please note that Wix Payments accounts cannot be transferred. If you have recurring payments from your contacts - such as pricing plans or product subscriptions - processed through Wix Payments, the subscription payments will continue under the original Wix Payments account.
To transfer the payments to a new Wix Payments account, your contact needs to cancel their existing subscription and re-subscribe once you've set up a new Wix Payments account.
If you process your payments through a third-party payment provider, you'll need to check with your provider about the status of your recurring payments.
What happens to my site members' access to member-only pages?
If you have members-only pages, your site members transfer to the new account and are removed from the old account.
What happens to my file uploads (images, videos, etc.) if I transfer my site to another account?
Your site media is associated with the Wix site. If you transfer a site to another account, your uploads appear on the live site and in the Media Manager of the new account.
What happens to my components in Velo when I transfer a site?
All elements are transferred except for secrets stored in your Secrets Manager.

No. It is not possible to transfer a purchased logo to another account. If this is something you would like to see offered in future, you can vote for this feature.
I took over an account as a legacy contact. Can I transfer its premium sites?
Yes. Once Wix approves your request, ownership of the account transfers to you, along with its premium subscriptions, so you can transfer its premium sites with the steps above. The person receiving the site then needs to accept the transfer.
