There are two main ways to transfer a Webflow site, depending on whether the recipient already has a Webflow workspace you can share it with:
Transferring to a Different Webflow User:
- Initiate the Transfer: Go to the site’s project settings and navigate to the “Collaborators” tab. Click the transfer icon.
- Choose Recipient: Select “To a user” in the transfer modal.
- Enter Recipient Email: Input the recipient’s Webflow account email address.
- Confirm Transfer: Click “Transfer” to complete the process.
Transferring to a New Webflow User or Workspace:
- Duplicate the Site: Create a duplicate of the site you want to transfer.
- Transfer the Duplicate: Following the steps above, transfer the duplicate site to the recipient’s email address or desired workspace.
- Manage Site Plans: If the original site has a hosting plan, remove it before transferring the duplicate. Then, add a new plan to the duplicate site for the recipient.
- Custom Domain and Publish: Set up the recipient’s custom domain on the duplicate site and publish it to make it live.
