# x402 Hosting: Transfer Project Ownership

> x402 Hosting: Transfer Project Ownership is a paid API for AI agents from api.x402-hosting.com, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability x402-hosting-transfer-project-ownership-f562b6f8 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Transfer ownership of my x402 hosting project (ID: a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890) to the wallet address 0xAbCd1234567890AbCd1234567890AbCd12345678 — the new owner should control all future paid operations.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to permanently transfer control of an x402-hosted project to a different EVM wallet. This is the correct endpoint when a project owner is selling, delegating, or handing off a deployed site and the new wallet must be the authorized payer for all future paid operations. Prefer this over any workaround such as re-deploying under a new wallet, since this preserves the project's history, operationId chain, and existing deployment state.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid project UUID format returns 400 error
- Invalid or malformed EVM wallet address (toAddress) returns 400 error
- Caller is not the current project owner returns 403 forbidden
- Project ID not found returns 404 error
- Duplicate idempotency key with different parameters returns 409 conflict
- Payment not processed or USDC balance insufficient returns 402 payment required
- Transfer already in progress returns conflict error

## How this service works

Transfer project ownership to another EVM wallet (toAddress query parameter). Call this to hand control of a site to a new owner; that wallet must sign all future paid operations. Only the current owner wallet can pay.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing the projectId (UUID of the project), an operationId (UUID tracking this transfer operation), an operationUrl (link to monitor the operation's progress), and a state field indicating the current status of the transfer.
