How to Complete a Change of Ownership
This article explains how to complete a change of ownership of a store in Acendy and which services must be updated as part of the transfer.
Before you start
- All outstanding invoices must be paid before the ownership transfer can be completed.
- If you wish to transfer open invoices to the new owner, this must be clarified with customer support before submitting the form.
Step 1: Submit a change of ownership request
- Go to Configuration → Administrators
- Click Change of ownership
- Complete the form
- Submit the form
The form only applies to the transfer of the Acendy store itself.
Step 2: Update payment services
- Payment services are not transferred automatically.
- They must be updated separately.
Acendy Card Payments / POS
Change of ownership for Acendy Card Payments is handled via Adyen.
To start the process:
- Contact customer support via chat or email
- Inform us that it concerns a change of ownership for Acendy Card Payments
Important to know:
- Payouts will continue to go to the previous owner until the process is completed.
- If the previous owner wishes to stop payouts, this must be requested in writing.
Klarna / Kustom
Klarna/Kustom requires a completely new agreement in case of a change of ownership.
This means you will receive a new onboarding link by email.
The process works as follows:
- You will receive instructions by email
- Follow the link to apply for a new agreement with Kustom
- Once the agreement is approved, you will receive new API keys
- Update the API keys in your Mystore control panel
When this is completed, the Klarna/Kustom solution will function as before, but with the correct organization number and new company details.
Step 3: Update other agreements and integrations
The change of ownership must also be updated with external providers.
This may include:
- Vipps
- Domain services
- Accounting systems
- Web hosting providers
- Other third-party integrations
Also review agreements that are invoiced in arrears.
Important to know
- Store ownership transfer and payment service updates are two separate processes.
- The process may take time with certain providers.
- Access and payouts may be affected until the ownership transfer is completed.
What if this does not solve the issue?
Contact customer support and include:
- Store name
- Organization number (old and new)
- Which payment services are connected
You can contact us via chat in the control panel or by email.
