Android App Transfer

In order to complete Android App Transfer, there are a few things to be done regarding Google Play developer. 

• Make sure that the original account and all the apps to be transferred comply to the policy guidelines

Most of your statistics will be transferred from your previous account to your new account. However, there are some things like your bulk export reports, payout reports, and earnings reports that won't be transferred with the app, so you may want to download any reports you'll need later. New versions of these reports will be created once the app transfers to a new account.

Before you can submit a transfer request from your original account to a different account (known as your target account), both Google Play developer accounts need to be registered and active.

To confirm that account is active, make sure of the following: 

• Original account: You're able to sign in  
• Target account: Your registration is complete

If you see the message Why can't I publish in the app header, review the information provided to resolve any missing information. 

• You'll need the registration transaction ID for the target account

To find the transaction ID, search  the target account owner's email inbox for developer registration fee. 

If you can’t find the transaction ID email receipt:

• With the target account owner's email address, sign in to Google Payments 
• Select Activity in the left menu  
• Find and select the transaction for your developer account registration  

Tip: Search your transactions for Google Play Developer.  

• Your transaction ID is listed near the bottom of the transaction details

Registration transaction IDs are typically in one of the following formats: 

• 01234567890123456789.token.0123456789012345 
• 0.G.123456789012345 
• Registration-1234ab56-7c89-12d3-4567-8e91234567f8 
• PDS.1234-5678-9012-3456
