Hey @PWANSOM, thanks for reaching out!

Because Square accounts are tied to the original account owner and ABN, we definitely recommend that the new owner creates their own Square account.

If they're looking at continuing to use Square, they can still use all your existing hardware, however there will be some information that needs to be recreated on their end.

1. Check out this support article for domain name transfers. I am not very familiar with the process, but I'd say the owner should already have a set up end point to transfer the domain to, be it a Square Online store or another provider. Support may be able to help further with this

2. For items, we have a guide on transferring items between accounts via spreadsheet - though note that some things, such as Modifiers, taxes and item images are not transferable and would need to be recreated, reassigned or reuploaded once you've imported the main item list.

If you need further help from support with either or these things you call support on 1800 760 137 (Mon-Fri, 9am-5pm Melbourne time), or contact us via online chat or email:

1. Sign in to your Square account

2. Head to our contact page https://squareup.com/help/au/en/contact

3. Go to "Other" then "I don't see my issue"

If you have any general questions I still may be able to answer feel free to post back here too!
