Transfer SimpliSafe to New Owner

Switching who owns your SimpliSafe Home Security System is easy. This keeps the new residents safe. When you move, help the new family shift smoothly. Follow these steps to transfer SimpliSafe to new owner and keep it working.

First, end your monitoring account. This lets the new owner pick their settings. After you end your account, the new people can take over. 

They’ll use the Base Station’s serial number to set up their monitoring. This special code links the system to their needs.

With a simple ownership switch, you make sure the SimpliSafe Home Security System keeps guarding the home.

This smooth process shows how much SimpliSafe cares about home safety. Beyond security, SimpliSafe offers environmental monitoring with devices like smoke detectors and water sensors to protect against unforeseen disasters.

Let’s look closer at the steps for a seamless switch.

How to Transfer Ownership of Your SimpliSafe Devices

If you use SimpliSafe, you know about keeping your home safe. Sometimes, you might need to give your security system to a new owner. Maybe you’re moving, renting, selling, or getting a new model. 

It’s easy to change the ownership and you don’t need to be super techy. The new owner stays safe, and your info is safe too.

First, stop any services you use. Call SimpliSafe at 1-800-548-9508, and pick Option 2. Tell them your phone number, address, and Safe Word. They’ll help with the switch.

Keep your info safe when you switch. Make your device’s PIN a simple code (like 0000) before giving it away. This keeps your info safe.

When you cancel service, it happens right away. Your system won’t watch your place after the call. So only cancel when you’re ready. Best to do it on a moving day.

After canceling, the new owner can make their own account. They can sign up online or call. They need the serial number under the Base Station. If they had SimpliSafe before, they can call to start up again.

The new owner adds their credit card for payments. They make their Safe Word and codes. Your settings stay in the Base Station’s memory. If there are many devices, they don’t need to add each one. The memory knows them.

If you don’t have services, passing it on is easier. The new owner sets it up with their own account. Simple and safe for both of you.
