Wix Partners: Allowing a Client to Manage Their Site

2 min read
You have a few options when it comes to granting your clients the ability to manage the websites you've created for them. You can involve your client and invite them as a collaborator, or easily transfer ownership of both Premium and free sites to their account.
Before your begin:
Decide with your client how, and if, they will manage the site in the future.

Inviting your client to collaborate

When you add your client as a collaborator, you assign them a role that lets them manage the site in your account. The role you assign your client determines which actions they can perform on the site.
This option is great if you plan to continue to work on the site in your account. Learn more about adding your client as a collaborator

Transferring a Premium site to your client

When you transfer a Premium site to your client's account, they become the site owner and you have options. You can move the Premium plan, domain, and mailboxes (if purchased from Wix) to your client's account. You can also become a site collaborator or create a copy of the site in your account. Any Premium apps connected to the site are transferred as well. 
This option is great if you want to upgrade and connect a domain before letting your client manage everything in their account. Learn more about transferring a Premium site to your client

When transferring a Premium site you can:

  • Transfer the Premium plan to your client's account. 
  • Move the domain to your client's account.

  • Create a copy of the site in your account.
