Project transfers between Vercel accounts are now downtime-free
Vercel has introduced a new project transfer capability that lets you move projects from Hobby accounts to Team plans, or directly between two Teams, without any interruption in service. Previously, moving a project meant redeploying it under the destination namespace; that is no longer necessary, and deployment settings carry over unchanged.
When a transfer is performed, all dependencies and configuration tied to the project are moved or copied to the new Team namespace. Project settings and history also remain intact. The transfer is available automatically on all Hobby and Team plans — there is nothing to enable.
Why transfer a project
Two common scenarios benefit from this feature. First, upgrading from the Hobby plan to a Team plan gives the project access to collaborative workflows, additional concurrent builds, and more powerful Serverless Functions. Second, teams that reorganize or split can move a project from one Team to another without rebuilding or reapplying configuration.
Locating the transfer option
To transfer a project, open the project's settings and go to the Advanced section. From there, a transfer option lets you specify the destination Team. The move completes in a few clicks, with no downtime and no need to adjust any deployment settings afterward.
