Having more than one account at CloudFlare

Is it possible to have a second account a Cloudflare (supposedly linked to a different email) and then transfer one or more domain names from my current account to a secondary newly created account?

I ask this because I have many domain names in my account and a hosting company is willing to help me out with configuration. I would not mind granting them permission but would feel more at ease if the permission is granted to the secondary account where I might only have one or just a few domain names.

I already read your support page about managing permission and it looks like it is actually granted to access the whole account and not a specific domain name. So, if I grant them permission to my main account they will have access to all the domain names in the account. I am not implying they will do wrong things but I would like to diminish risks.

Yes, this should be possible:

Thank you very much. I quickly went through the information you have noted. It says that SSL/TLS certificates associated with a previous Cloudflare account will not be transferred to a new account. In my case I have not enabled Cloudflare universal certificate as I already got one through the hosting company (Let’s Encrypt). So I understand I could proceed with the domain transfer to a secondary account without paying any attention to the issue of the SSL/TLS certificate.

Hi again. No problem.
Yes, unless you paid for Cloudflare custom certificates, you should be able to transfer to another account, as long as the DNS and other settings are all the same for that domain.

Thank you. In that case I think all is clear as my intention is to transfer a domain name in Cloudflare to another Cloudflare account owned by myself. So, all configuration should remain unchanged. Of course, I hope it won’t affect the website. Thanks.
