please tell me to plan types for the two accounts you want to transfer between.

Business account: Hobby
Personal / Dev account (with database): Free

Okay so generally businesses would need to be on the Pro plan, and Railway doesn't have a free plan so that would need to be hobby just to do the transfer as far as im aware

Tbh the business plan is absolutely overkill for our little web app and the reason we switched from planetscale since the pricing update. We are just looking for a simple and fair priced mysql solution.

The developer account is in the free trial which is why we wanted to transfer it to a paid plan with an account in our name.

It would not make any sense to put the dev account into a paid plan since it will be deactivated after the transfer

Thanks for the quick answer btw

32 vcpu and 32gb of ram is overkill for even a lot of enterprise apps, but thats not the driving factor behind upgrading to Pro, as the name suggests, the hobby plan should only be used for hobby projects, not business projects.

If you still can't transfer after upgrading the trial let me know and then i will get the team involved.

If that’s the case we might as well just stay with planetscale

do you have a hobby project?

What do you mean?

Well if you want to know we are a small event organizing team, we are not a 20 employee business, we have to look at our expenses

But if railway does not offer something that fits our needs this is ok and we will continue looking

that wouldnt be a hobby workload, thats for sure something you want to be on pro for

Why?

because its not a hobby

Since you are not from the company i don't see the point in arguing with you

theres no arguments here, im simply stating what the plans are for

Where does it say "only for hobbyists"?

i mean… its named hobby…

yeah cause it fits for most (and marketing)

im sorry but that interpretation would be incorrect

please correct me if im wrong, but your project doesnt seem like it would fit into that description in the slightest?

I am a student so i wouldn't call myself professional dev

Also with 10h / month I think sideproject is not that far

dont sell yourself short

I get where you are coming from, but i wanted to show that it is not black and white

It doesn't matter anymore i solved it anyways

happy to hear that

How did you solve the problem? I'm having a similar issue. I'm on the hobby plan, trying to transfer project ownership to my partner who is on the pro plan.

they did upgrade their account to hobby during this, as they where on the trial when they opened this thread, would you mind opening a new help thread?
