Phone Number Transfers
Both Agencies are on LeadConnector
- If BOTH the releasing and receiving agencies along with the sub-account that needs to be transferred is on LC, then the phone numbers will automatically be transferred with the sub-account.
- A2P DLC status will be retained. Sub-accounts do not need to again register the phone numbers that are already registered.
- All the phone usage charges going forward will be accrued by the receiving agency.
Both Agencies are not on LeadConnector (Either one or Both are Twilio)
No phone numbers will be transferred over by HighLevel. It is your responsibility to work with the previous account owner as well as Twilio to move over any or all phone numbers that you may want to keep connected to the transferred sub-account.
Kindly reach out to HighLevel Support for any concerns.
Sub-Account Transfer FAQs

No. Sub-Account transfers are a movement of the entire sub-account, not a movement of just the data inside of it. This movement takes place from one agency to another. - Can I transfer a HIPAA-enabled Sub-account?
We can ONLY Transfer HIPAA-compliant sub-accounts if the Agency that you are wanting to transfer to ALSO has the HIPAA Compliance add-on package purchased from the HighLevel Marketplace. - What is the prep that I have to do to the sub-account before transferring?
- Set all users that you want to be transferred over are User Type ‘Account’ and only assigned to this specific sub-account being transferred.
- Any SaaS sub-account will need to have SaaS disabled.
- All active subscriptions like Wordpress, Yext, Whatsapp, Dedicated IP etc. will have to be cancelled before the transfer is requested.
- What is the setup that I will need once the transfer is made?
- You will need to reconnect all auth connections (ex: Google, FB, Quickbooks, Clio, DrChrono)
- You will have to reintegrate Facebook and Google
