It was as simple as me making a Stripe user account and then him adding me to the account he used for the business and then me removing him.&lt;p&gt;The entire process took minutes. It took about 3 weeks for PayPal.&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;support.stripe.com&amp;#x2F;questions&amp;#x2F;change-account-owner&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;support.stripe.com&amp;#x2F;questions&amp;#x2F;change-account-owner&lt;/a&gt;</text><parent_chain><item><author>nostromo</author><text>Your CC is probably safe on Stripe&amp;#x27;s servers.&lt;p&gt;Which makes me wonder -- does Stripe allow entire accounts to change hands willy-nilly like this?</text></item><item><author>jasonlaramburu</author><text>Aaron, I was a homejoy customer.

Stripe can&amp;#x27;t really prevent a legitimate owner of an account from doing something stupid with it. At least, not until after the fact.</text><parent_chain><item><author>nostromo</author><text>Your CC is probably safe on Stripe&amp;#x27;s servers.&lt;p&gt;Which makes me wonder -- does Stripe allow entire accounts to change hands willy-nilly like this?</text></item><item><author>jasonlaramburu</author><text>Aaron, I was a homejoy customer.
