# Swap Signers

By utilising the **Swap Signer** feature, Safe Signer can transfer ownership to a new party. This is crucial when an existing Signer exits an organisation and a successor is needed.

Follow the steps below to swap Safe Signer:

## **Step 1.** **Accessing the Swap Signer option**

Navigate to the **Accounts** section. Select the desired Safe, and access the Safe Signers section to view the list of Signers.

Select the **Swap** icon (indicated in red in the below screenshot) adjacent to the Signer address to be changed.

## **Step 2:** **Entering new Signer information and create proposal**

A window will appear. Input the new Signer's address, carefully review the details, and click **Create Proposal** to finalise the process.

The remaining Signers can evaluate and either approve or reject the proposal.

## **Step 3:** Action on Proposal

Signers can take one of three actions on a proposal:

* **Proposal Rejection-** If any Safe Signer rejects the proposal, it will be discarded Off-Chain.
* **Proposal Approval and Execution-** If the number of votes in favor of the proposal meets Safe's required threshold, the transaction will be carried out, resulting in the previous Signer being replaced by the new one.
* **On-Chain Transaction Rejection-** Even after a proposal has been approved, it can still be turned down in the on-chain stage. This can happen if a Safe Signer initially approves the proposal, moving it into the on-chain queue, but other Safe Signers decide to use the [**On-Chain Rejection**](/business/coinshift-walkthrough/transaction-management/on-chain-transaction-rejection.md) option to stop the transaction.

Please ensure that the newly added Signers follow the steps mentioned in the [Sign Up](/business/getting-started/setting-up-a-new-organisation/sign-up.md), and [Joining Existing Organisation](/business/getting-started/joining-an-existing-organisation.md) articles sequentially. Upon accepting the invitation to join an organisation, they can fully access the Safe and conduct transactions.
