What to Know

• Only an Owner user can change the owner in STACK.

• It may be preferable for the owner to assign a co-owner, unless the company is being transferred to another person. The co-owner has the ability to create projects, similarly to the owner. For more information on co-owners, refer to STACK Roles & Create a User.

• In order for a user to become the organization's owner, they must have previously validated their account.
