Sign in to the Admin Console.
Find out how a contract owner can transfer their responsibilities to another administrator or how a system administrator can find out who a contract owner is and request to become one.
There can be only one contract owner who can make payment-related updates. By default, the contract owner is an admin who purchases the Creative Cloud for teams subscription and sets up the account.
To change the contract owner, navigate to the Account tab in the Adobe Admin Console.

If the contract owner isn't available
As an admin, you can take ownership of an account if the contract owner has left the organization. Sign in to the Admin Console, navigate to Support, and contact Adobe Customer Care. The customer care team requires an email from you, requesting the change in ownership of the account.
To confirm the change, the customer care team sends an email to the current contract owner. You are designated as the contract owner in the following scenarios:
- The current contract owner's email no longer exists.
- The current contract owner doesn't respond within two days.
- The account is unpaid due to a payment issue.
After you are designated as the contract owner, you are prompted to update payment details on the account.
If the contract owner isn't available, and the account doesn't have any other admin, Adobe Customer Care can't promote non-admins to the admin role. In this case, you can purchase a new Creative Cloud for teams subscription.
