No, a Samsung Care subscription cannot be transferred to another person.
When you enroll a device in a Samsung Care plan, the benefits of that plan are tied to your subscription and are not transferable. This means that if you sell, gift, or otherwise transfer ownership of your registered device to someone else, the new owner will not receive any benefits or coverage under your existing Samsung Care terms.
Understanding Samsung Care Transferability
Samsung Care is designed to provide protection and support for the registered device under the original subscriber's agreement. Here are key points regarding its non-transferable nature:
- Personalized Subscription: The Samsung Care plan is linked to the original subscriber and their registered device. It is a personal agreement between Samsung and the individual who purchased the plan.
- No Benefit for New Owners: Should you decide to part with your device, such as by selling it or giving it away, the new owner will not inherit the remaining coverage or any of the perks associated with your Samsung Care subscription. They would need to investigate purchasing their own coverage for the device, if available.
- Impact on Device Resale: While the device itself can be transferred, its extended protection plan through Samsung Care does not accompany it. This is an important consideration for both the seller and the buyer of a used Samsung device.
In essence, the protection offered by Samsung Care remains with the original subscriber and ends if they no longer own the device under the terms of their agreement, or if the device is transferred to another individual.
