Yes, you can transfer your CMS plan from one website to another on Webflow. However, there are a few important things to note before proceeding with the transfer:

  1. Ownership and access: You need to have ownership of both websites involved in the transfer process. Ensure that you have admin access to both sites before attempting the transfer.

  2. Eligibility: Transferring a CMS plan is only available for paid CMS customers.

  3. Plan compatibility: The websites involved in the transfer should be on the same plan level. For example, if you have a CMS Lite plan on the original website, the destination website should also have a CMS Lite plan.

Here's a step-by-step guide on how to transfer your CMS plan from one website to another:

  1. Exporting site content: Export the CMS site content from the original website. To do this, go to the original website's editor, navigate to the CMS panel, and click on Export. This will generate a CSV file containing your site's CMS data.

  2. Importing site content: On the destination website, go to the editor, navigate to the CMS panel, and click on Import. Select the exported CSV file from the original website, and Webflow will start importing the content to the destination website.

  3. Website transfer: To transfer your CMS plan, you need to contact Webflow support. Send them an email (support@webflow.com) with both the original website and the destination website details, explaining your intent to transfer the CMS plan. The Webflow support team will guide you through the process and complete the necessary steps for the transfer.

  4. Confirmation and completion: Once the transfer is completed, Webflow support will notify you, and you can verify by checking the CMS panel on the destination website. Make sure all the content and functionality are intact.

Transferring your CMS plan from one website to another on Webflow might involve some back-and-forth communication with Webflow support, so it's essential to be clear with your inquiries and provide them with all the necessary details to ensure a smooth transfer process.
