Understanding the Process
When Shopify Development Store for a client is complete, the next step is transferring ownership to the client. This process involves moving the store from your Partner Dashboard to the client’s Shopify account.
Key Considerations:
- Development Store Limitations: Development stores have restrictions to ensure they are used solely for development purposes. Certain features might be unavailable.
- Ownership Transfer: Only one account owner is permitted per development store. The initial owner is the Partner team member who created it. Upon transfer, ownership shifts to the client.
- Staff Permissions: Up to 15 Partner team members can access a development store. Adding more requires removing existing staff.
- Transfer Process: The transfer occurs through the Partner Dashboard, where you initiate the process and the client accepts ownership.
Important Notes:
- Transferring a store with a developer preview enabled is not possible.
- Removing a Partner team member from a store also revokes their access.
By understanding these guidelines, you can smoothly transition development stores to your clients while maintaining control over the process.
