# How to change ownership of a Prowly account

## You can transfer ownership to an existing user of your account or you can invite a new one who will become the new owner.

An ownership change can be made only by the current account owner. After logging into Prowly, go to *Settings* -\> *Users*:

 

![account users](https://help.prowly.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Help/Account/account%20users.png?width=312&height=567&name=account%20users.png)

 

Here you'll be able to transfer ownership to an existing user or invite a new one who will become the new owner.

### Existing user

Click **Change role** right next to the user who should become the new owner. Select the *Owner* role from the list and save.

### Invite a new user

Click the **Invite user** button and fill in the form. Select *Owner* from the list of roles and send:

The new owner will receive an email with a request to confirm the account takeover. The invitation is valid for 30 days.
