To change the payment owner, perform this action from the account that will become the new payment owner. You can't make this change from the current payment owner's account.
The person who will become the new payment owner must have Owner permissions. If you're transferring payment ownership to an Editor, grant them Owner permissions first.
Good to know: What is a payment owner?
A payment owner is the member with permission to handle payments for a project. Each project can have only one payment owner.
Before you make the change
Confirm that the new payment owner meets the following conditions:
They have the Owner role in the project
Their payment currency matches that of the current payment owner
Note: If the payment currency differs between the current and new payment owner, you won't be able to change the payment owner.
Your subscription fee automatically renews and is billed each billing cycle (monthly or yearly), starting from your contract date (the date you upgraded). The charge is billed to the card registered under the payment owner's account at the time of billing.
If you're transferring ownership to an Editor
Users with the Editor role in a project can't become the payment owner. The current payment owner or an Owner must first grant them the Owner role before proceeding with the change.
For details on how to change a user's role, see Managing project members' roles.
Tip: If the project is linked to a workspace, the workspace's member list will open instead.
For details, see Inviting users to a workspace.
Once you've granted Owner permissions, ask the new owner to follow the steps to change the payment owner.
Steps to change the payment owner
Log in to Studio.Design using the account that will become the new payment owner.
Open the Home dashboard for the project in question.
From the menu on the left, click Plan & Billing > Billing Information.
Click Change Payment Owner.
Click Change Payment Owner again.
If billing information hasn't been set up for this account yet, enter your country/region and credit card details.
The process is complete once the payment owner has been updated to your account.
Note: If the billing information screen shows a Change Card Information button, that account is already the payment owner. Make sure to perform the change from the account that will become the new payment owner instead.
