Google's ownership transfer and a checklist handover are not the same sentence

Google publishes an official way to transfer Play Console ownership. Google also prohibits buying, selling, or leasing accounts on third-party markets. Guyi promises only the agreed checklist: login, recovery, two-factor, and the agreed apps and members. That is not a claim that Google approved the deal.

What to read in the Console

If an official transfer is available for this account, follow the flow the Console shows. Do not invent a seven-day hold or any other waiting period that is not on that page. A monetizing personal account is currently ineligible for a direct owner transfer. An organization transfer still needs the legal entity to match.

What stays in the checklist

Even when people discuss an official transfer, the buyer should still be able to sign in, move recovery and two-factor, and see the named apps and members. Guyi does not promise review or an unban.

Questions

Does a checklist mean Google blessed the sale?

No. The checklist is what the two sides agreed to hand over.

Is there a fixed hold on this site?

No. Read the current Console flow. Do not add a hold this page did not get from that flow.
