Transferring a service to someone else

What this is

You can transfer a VPS to another person's VPSDime account. It's a deliberate, two-sided process, so a service only moves when both people confirm it.

Before you start

  • Pay any open invoices on the service first. A service with outstanding invoices can't be transferred until they're settled.
  • The new owner needs an account. If they don't already have one, they can create one at the sign-up page. See Creating an account.

How to transfer

Both people open a support ticket so we can confirm the move from each side:

  1. You (current owner): open a ticket naming the service and the email address of the account it should move to.
  2. The new owner: opens a ticket from their account naming the same service and your account's email address.

Once both tickets line up, we'll move the service to the new account.

Things worth knowing

  • We need confirmation from both parties before moving a service.
  • After the transfer, billing and management of the service move to the new owner's account.

Still need help?

You can open a support ticket. So we can help on the first reply, it's worth mentioning:

  • the service (hostname or IP) being transferred,
  • the email addresses of both the current and new accounts.
  • "How do I transfer my VPS to someone else?"
  • "Can I move a service to a different account?"
  • "How do I change the owner of my VPS?"
  • "I sold my VPS, how do I hand it over?"
