Hello Seller Community!
Big news for sellers looking to change account ownership! You can now transfer your Square account to a new owner, or accept a transfer to become the owner of an existing account.
Before starting an account transfer, make sure that:
- An Employer Identification Number (EIN) or SSN is on file at all locations attached to the Square account.
- The existing owner of the account can log into the account, verify their identity, and is willing to transfer ownership.
For specific steps on how to start a transfer or accept a transfer, see our guide on transferring ownership of your Square account.
Note: if for any reason your account is ineligible for transfer, you will see a popup explaining the reason why and a link for more information.
