In order to make use of a Google Service, you need a Google Account: A Google Account is identified by an email address. This can be any email adress - It does not have to be a Gmail address
Associated services
- To see what services are associated with an account, go to https://myaccount.google.com/dashboard
- However, this is not reliable
- Need to be sure about something: Log into the Google Account and subsequently go to the URL for the service, e.g., https://tagmanager.google.com/
Transferring services
Google doesn't provide a straightforward method to move services between accounts. However, you can employ several strategies to streamline account management, although with some serious limitations:
Data transfer between accounts
E.g.:
- Google Drive: Share files or folders from one account to another and adjust permissions as needed
- Gmail: Set up mail forwarding to receive emails from multiple accounts in a single inbox
- Google Photos: Share photo libraries between accounts.
Linking accounts
While you can't merge accounts, you can link them to facilitate easier access:
- Multiple Sign-In: Sign in to multiple Google Accounts simultaneously and switch between them as needed
- Alternate Email Addresses: Add alternate email addresses to your Google Account to manage sign-ins more efficiently.
Third-party app connections
