# Change Account Owner
### Transferring Account Ownership
There might be multiple reasons why one would want to transfer Account Ownership to another user in the Organization. This can be done using one of the two methods.
### Via the Users section
1. Click on **Settings** in the sidebar
2\. Click on **Users** from the secondary navigation menu
3\. Click on **Transfer Ownership** beside your name
### Via Organization Settings
1. Click on **Settings**, then select **General Settings** and click on **Transfer Ownership**
2\. From the **Users** drop-down, select the user you would like to transfer your Organization’s ownership to
3\. Enable the checkbox confirming your action to proceed. Once you have confirmed, click on the **Save** button to transfer your ownership to that user

**Important:**
Once the ownership transfer is successful, your **User Type** within the Organization will be changed to `User` from `Account Owner`.
