Live servers cannot be moved between accounts. <br> <br>However, snapshots can. You can open up a ticket to start the process of transferring a snapshot from one account to another.

I don’t believe moving a live droplet isn’t currently available at this time, however you can create a snapshot image of your droplet and then share it with another user’s account by opening a ticket.
