Apple Developer Account Transfer
To let HqO publish your new mobile app and retire your old one, Apple requires your organization to update the Account Holder role in your Apple Developer Program — the only role with legal authority to approve app publishing.
Before you begin
Confirm all of the following:
- Your Apple Developer membership is active.
- The new Account Holder is already added as an Admin in App Store Connect.
- The new Account Holder can complete identity verification in the Apple Developer app.
Step 1: Current Account Holder starts the transfer
- Sign in at developer.apple.com.
- Go to Membership → Membership Details.
- Select Update your information.
- Choose Transfer Account Holder Role.
- Select the new Account Holder and confirm the transfer.
Step 2: New Account Holder accepts the transfer
- Open the Apple Developer app.
- Sign in and tap Accept.
- Complete identity verification if prompted.
The transfer usually completes within a few minutes.
After the transfer
- HqO can publish your new app using your Apple Developer account.
- Your existing apps, certificates, and users remain unchanged.
- Only the legal contact for your account is updated.
