How to Transfer a Clash Royale Account with Supercell ID

QUICK ANSWER
A Clash Royale 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 in the Supercell ID settings. Supercell has no official transfer between players, so do it on day one, before you confirm the order.
Clash Royale 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 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 email, one Supercell ID. The email you move it to must not already be linked to another Supercell ID.
- No limit on email changes, though Supercell may disable them on accounts it considers unsecured.
Step by step: move the account to your email
- Open the delivered email inbox and check that you can receive new messages.
- In Clash Royale, open Settings and Supercell ID, log in with that email address and the code that arrives.
- Open the Supercell ID settings and choose to change the email. Supercell sends a code to the current email to confirm you have access.
- Enter your own email and the code Supercell sends to it, then follow the prompts.
- Check the cards against the listing, then confirm the order.
Lock the account to you
- 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, and its codes prove ownership to support. Never buy an account that already has someone else's phone on it.
- Keep your records. Without Account Protection, support asks for the player tag, account name, account level, clan name and purchase transaction IDs when someone tries to recover an account.
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 and selling accounts, and its help centre says a bought account is never yours. 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 Clash Royale account? and the pre-purchase checklist.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I move a Clash Royale 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 Clash Royale 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.
