Manage your Business Profile owners & managers

If you own a Business Profile, you can invite users to become owners or managers. Each user gets their own access and doesn’t need to share their login info. Owners and managers have different levels of access to the profile:

Only owners can add or remove users.
Managers can remove themselves from a profile.
You can’t add Google groups as managers or owners.
Only the primary owner can transfer primary ownership.

Delete or undelete a profile
Remove other owners or managers
Transfer primary ownership

If you delete your account within the first 7 days, you’ll be removed from the profile. If you change your mind, you need to be added back again.

Tip: If an existing owner tries to make someone else the primary owner in their first 7 days, they’ll get an error.
