How to Transfer a Brawl Stars Account with Supercell ID

QUICK ANSWER
A Brawl Stars account moves with its Supercell ID, which logs in with a code sent to its email and has no password. To take over a bought account: log in to the linked email, sign in to Supercell ID in the game with the code, then change the Supercell ID email to your own (Settings, Supercell ID, Change Email). Supercell has no official transfer between players, so do it on day one, before you confirm the order.
Brawl Stars has no "transfer account" button. Everything rests on Supercell ID: whoever controls the email it is linked to controls the account. This guide shows how Supercell ID works, how to move it to your own email step by step, and how to lock the account to you afterwards.
How Supercell ID works
- No password. You log in with a verification code Supercell sends to the Supercell ID's email.
- One way in. Once an account is connected to Supercell ID, no one can log in to it any other way.
- One email, one Supercell ID. The email you move it to must not already be linked to another Supercell ID.
- New-device alerts. Supercell emails you when someone logs into the Supercell ID on a new device.
Step by step: move the account to your email
- Open the delivered email inbox and check that you can receive new messages.
- In Brawl Stars, open Settings and tap Supercell ID, then log in with that email address and the code that arrives.
- Choose Change Email in the Supercell ID settings.
- Confirm you can still open the current inbox and enter the code Supercell sends there.
- Enter your own email, enter the code sent to it and follow the prompts.
- Check the brawlers against the listing, then confirm the order.
Supercell's help centre says there is no limit on how many times you can change the email, that it may disable email changes on accounts it considers unsecured, and that without access to the current inbox you have to contact support.
Lock the account to you
- Log out other devices. If you get a new-device email you don't recognise, choose "This is not my device" to log out of all devices.
- Consider Account Protection. It adds SMS codes and recovery codes with your own phone number. Supercell says it cannot be disabled through settings or support, only reset to change the number. That is also why you should never buy an account that already has someone else's phone on it.
- Keep your records. Support asks for details such as the player tag, account name, club and purchase transaction IDs when someone tries to recover an account without Account Protection.
Common problems
| Problem | What to do |
|---|---|
| The code doesn't arrive | Check spam, wait a minute and request a new code. |
| Your email is "already in use" | It is linked to another Supercell ID; use a different address. |
| The account asks for an SMS code | Account Protection is on with someone else's phone. Don't confirm the order; open a dispute. |
| Email change is not available | Supercell can disable it on accounts it considers unsecured; contact the seller through the order before confirming. |
What Supercell says about bought accounts
Supercell's Terms of Service forbid buying, selling and sharing accounts. Moving the Supercell ID to your own email doesn't change that; it makes sure you, and only you, control the login. Read is it safe to buy a Brawl Stars account? and the pre-purchase checklist.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I move a Brawl Stars account between iPhone and Android?
Yes. Supercell ID works on both: log in with it on the new device and the account loads there.
Do I need the seller once the email is changed?
No. After the Supercell ID is on your email, the seller can no longer get login codes.
Does BuyAccount deliver the email?
Yes. Every Brawl Stars listing on BuyAccount comes with access to the email the Supercell ID is linked to and has no phone number linked. Payment is held in escrow until you confirm, under our buyer protection; see how it works.
