A co-owner is a full peer of the account owner — same access as you, including billing — for a true business partner.
Only the founder can add co-owners
The founder (whoever created the account) is the only person who can promote or demote co-owners. Other Owners, Admins, and teammates won't see these controls.
Make someone a co-owner
- Go to Settings → Team (
/settings/team). - In the Access levels list, find the teammate.
- Click Make co-owner and confirm.
They immediately gain full owner access and a Co-owner badge.
Demote a co-owner
On the same list, click Demote co-owner next to their badge and confirm — they drop back to their previous level (Admin, Manager, or Team Member).
A co-owner is promoted from an existing teammate, so it uses the seat they already hold — it doesn't add a new seat. See Plans, tiers & seats and Team roles.
